PC David Rathband RIP : Thu Mar 01, 2012 3:38 am  

The PC who Raoul Moat blinded has been found dead at his home. Guess he couldn't cope. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-tyne-17216389 I hope all the scum who were calling Moat a legend are happy.

I don't know much about the story but who and why were people calling him a legend?

Just read the report and it's terribly sad. It goes to show how an incident like that can have such far reaching consequences long after the case has left the headlines. The guy got up and went to work as he would have done any other morning: by the end of the day he'd lost his sight, months later his wife, and eventually his will to live. I hope those who assisted Moat are feeling utterly wretched right now.

Unfortunately the scum bags won't care a bit, i feel for those close to him, i've been that low and come through it by sheer luck.

RIP PC Rathband

Well you could start with the 30,000 that subscribed to this: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/raoul-moat-legend-facebook-page-removed-2027437.html Why? you'd need a deeper understanding of how some people's minds work than I've got, to answer that one.

Victimhood, chips on shoulders, hatred of the police and any authorities etc etc ...?
