I think being kicked out of the service is the least of their worries right now. I would not like to be in their shoes, their actual names and the roads they live in has been published in the newspaper.

I can't imagine how gutting that was for you, Pete.

[rob999]

In what is a professional public service it makes me thoroughly sick to read this. I just hope they get the harshest sentence possible....if only for your sake Pete.

That's disgusting!! One thing you can take out of it is that they have been caught and if the systems works correctly they will get what they have coming to them!!

[peteslag]

I hope I'm there to see justice served.  The hearing is the the 28th April at the Shrewsbury magistrates court, I don't know how these things work but I'd love to go to it and see the look on their faces in court. I sincerely hope they get a custodial sentence.

One thing I don't understand is why are they only getting charged for conspiracy to damage and not arson?

[jonnyboy]

^ Paid someone to start the fires on their shift? 

 

Unbelievable!

Unbelievable!! That is a real rollercoaster with a sting in the tail!!

 

I would want to kill the bastards!!

First I've read of this and can't quite believe it. Can't imagine how angry that would leave me.

 

Did you go along to the trial? Just alone to ask them why they moved on from bins to torching someone's prized possession? fcuking scum. Can't stand people that don't respect other's possessions.

Slap on the wrist and back out into the open world to disrespect more people's hard worked for stuff.

The hearing hasn't happened yet. My boss has agreed to give me the time off to go it, just need to talk to the coppers to try get them to let me attend.

[CocoPops]

Be interested to know if you could present. As in 5minutes of Fire ruined hundreds of hours and thousands of pounds on your car.

A friend had a similar problem, criminal damage to car, if they plead guilty I don't think you can even send a letter to the court to put a victim statement in.

Before any one says it, no I didn't have anything to do with it!

[D-DAWG83]

Blimey, thats a strange twist.

Surprised you have not bought the turbo Moonland that is currently for sale

[peteslag]

110 miles to get to work these days. I think I'd rather a dose of gonorrhea than do that commute in a VX. I'm driving something a bit boring softer these days.  

[ChrisS1]

First time I've seen this.

 

Gob smacked. Absolutely unbelievable.
