By all means do it on 'merit', but 50k scumbags? How many tens of thousands won't be prosecuted then?

50,000? There's that many people they know of but aren't doing anything about? |

That's the NCA's own estimate and, consequently, admission that many will slip the net. So you could expect a few thousand bare minimum even though they seem to know exactly who they are. Surely you'd use neighbouring forces in one big push whether it's their patch or not? We get English officers etc over here all the time for everything from consultancy to riots. |

It's not the 50,000 people that are the issue. It's the (some multiple times) 50,000 PCs that have to be forensically analysed to court evidence standards. That's a specialist task, there aren't all that many people who can do it and it takes time. A related story in the news said there was effectively a year's waiting list to get a PC analysed now, let alone flooding the system with say 100,000 extra jobs. It's not that they don't want to prosecute them, it's just they simply don't have the resources to do so and stand a chance of the evidence being admissible in a viable timescale. Still, austerity, eh? All in this together,what? |
