I doubt a police officer would make that claim on an internet discussion board. They would not acknowledge any knowledge of an incident or they would state they could not comment on the incident.
If a person claims to know 'as a fact' something on here then they shouldn't be surprised if they are asked to substantiate their claim, particularly when there is a police investigation ongoing. Most people state something as 'a fact' when what they really mean is that somebody they know/trust who may or may not have seen what happened told them about it. But that doesn't make it fact.
Yes but if they do know something as fact, it doesn't mean they can give proof of that as if they are in a position where they have seen the tape and shouldn't or have seen the tape and should not be telling people that they have, then they are hardly going to say, hey I'm joe bloggs, my job is and this is how I saw it.
Just the same as on the DA thread, when I said that the house hunting had to be rumour. I knew the reasons why as fact, but does not mean I'll tell everyone else why.
DA has just bopped the rumours on the head today anyways.
