Sadiq Khan has added to this aggravation also by not really condemning Kaba. The guys overseeing a what 40% rise in London knife crime and he speaks like this.
The judge overseeing the Chris Kaba case, Mark Lucraft KC, decided to disclose the name of the police firearms officer, Martyn Blake, because he determined that there was no "real or immediate" risk to the officer's life or that of his family from revealing his identity. The judge reviewed intelligence material and found that while there were some risks, they could be mitigated through other means, such as not allowing Blake’s address or image to be published. This decision aligns with the principles of open justice, which prioritize transparency in the legal process.
The Police Officer and his family should be given 24/7 all round protection similar to that given to say the Royal Family. This will be a huge amount of money and should be funded entirely by the CPS.
If the gang have threatened the police officer with a bounty, why don’t they go after the rest of the gang?! They’ll jail people for posting things they don’t like
having a trial was right as a jury found him innocent in 3 hours which makes sadiq and the protesters look idiots for not waiting till the full story comes out naming this hero copper was nasty though stupid judge
If you play very stupid games, you will eventually win a very stupid prize. He was a career criminal involved in violent crimes. Most of his victims will have been black.
OF COURSE THE FAMILY WANT TO KEEP HIS CRIMINAL PASSED QUITE ,BECAUSE THEY ARE HOPING FOR A BIG COMPENSATION PAY OUT ,THE SAME AS GEORGE FLOYDS RELATIONS WHO GOT 27 MILLION .
oh yes then letting out criminals early from prison is really keeping us safe. prisoners saying they prefer prison to the outside world where you get breakfast cooked for you and three meals a day i do not get and no bills to pay and no work and no having to beg for universal credit and no retirement at 79 or 80 years of age.

England must not become another haiti or jamaica where gangs rule. The police forces across UK need to strongly face down criticism in cases like this--the law is the law regardless of colour. The crown prosecution service may be following the instructions of a previous director who is currently doing a poor job of running the country.
Apart from the grief this has caused and continues to cause this armed officer and others. Imagine the cost of this single incident due to his behavior. Police costs, vehicles, firearms, legal fees, court costs etc etc. All paid for by hardworking people paying taxes.
Since the police involved in the incident were aware of his character and the incidents before the shooting I find it difficult to understand how the Judge disallowed this background information leading up to the incident. The police were not involved in stopping an innocent member of the public but a career criminal.
Surely this constitutes an incitement to murder. The police should find out who has offered this and arrest them. Kier Starmer should insist that they are charged, tried and sentenced before the weekend matching the express justice that was meted out to careless "posters" of the Southport events.
Considering, their is a school teacher still in hiding ,and no arrests for the death threats he received, and who remembers the death threats to a school boy, who dropped a book, the police escorted his mother to apologise to hundreds of men begging them to spare her son, when the police should have been arresting the people who threaten a child.
Imagine if the shooting officer had of been ebony - judge would not have named him and BLM would have silent. Skin shade don’t come into it he was a officer highly trained upholding the law keeping public safe - easy to criticise he had a split second choice with known gangster.

It's an indictment on the state of this country when the judge is blamed for revealing the police officers name and thus jeopardising his future safety when it should be squarely on the shoulders of those who are not prepared to accept the judgement of our judicial system.
He was found not guilty his name should never have been released. That is shocking. What was the judge thinking and who exactly was the judge.. their motives for releasing an innocent man’s name needs to be investigated.
It's not just the criminals being released early; it's also the criminals that are now not going to prison at all. I work in the criminal justice system and it's now very difficult to get anyone into prison, habitual offenders are just being bailed over and over again.
