Calling someone mate in custody or being compassionate is not a friend request on bookface, an invitation to a pint at the pub or a Sunday roast with the officers family. It is however a way of trying to keep the detainee calm, trying to stop them hurting themselves,
and get justice for families with victims very much at the forefront of why they do what they do and how they do it despite the personal feelings they have to hide. A threatening and intimidating custody sergeant is no help to anyone, especially the families.
The custody staff have a very challenging job and are often the unsung hero’s of investigations. If I still wore one, I’d take my hat off to each and every one of them.

The personal attacks on my colleagues are getting out of hand on here. We’re not tv actors, we’re cops allowing ourselves to be filmed to try and show what we do and you only get to see a snippet of it during the program. Everyone worked their arses off to get these convictions
I understand it’s difficult to comprehend with the crimes people commit but it’s what they have to do. Jacob is an outstanding detective and it was Movember when being filmed so he was raising money for charity.
Everyone is entitled to to their opinion but comments like these do an injustice to every hard working cop out there who isn’t interested in the politics, they just want to do a good job, get justice for people and get home safely to their loved ones.

A month today I leave for Kathmandu to start the Everest Base Camp trek to raise money for @ThinBlueLineUK with colleagues from @eschallenge2023
Please speak up if you’re struggling; friends, colleagues will always listen. Taking the first step is hard but you can do it 💪
46 days until I join the Everest Base Camp challenge for the Thin Blue Line Charity. Please follow @eschallenge2023 for updates & if you can spare a few quid, donations are gratefully received.
Made it up Ben Nevis for a training walk, the weather & climb was bloody relentless!

My Uncle passed away yesterday after a brave battle with cancer. He was a DC in Herts, mostly in Bishops Stortford. He retired in 2001.
I wouldn’t be where I am today if not for him. Stand down DC 610 Sibthorp. Thank you for everything. @HertsPolice
Stand down Fabulous Finn, we’ve got it from here. Your legacy will live on in every service dog, a true legend.
Sleep well x

Taking the family to Scotland in the campervan soon doing the NC500 tour. Just introduced my kids to The Family-Ness from my childhood. I don’t think they were too impressed….

Thank you to @ChrisGPackham & the brave people telling their stories which has given me the confidence to speak & no longer hide behind the mask that has been slipping for a while now.

Have a @bedspolice intern with us this week. I’ve asked her 2 produce an “Old Persons Idiots Guide” 4 SnapChat, TickTock etc so we can get down with the youth. So much is alien to us & we are missing out on investigative opportunities due 2 our lack of knowledge. She’s Brilliant
100 ish hours worked in 6 days & more to come. I’m not the only one tired but determined to get the job done.
So proud of my team and other teams who don’t do limelight for working their socks off in such difficult & challenging circumstances to support us #unseenheroes

Having a work / life balance is so important. My release is to make things out of resin. I’ve made this guitar out of spent cases for my little brother’s Boss who has retired from the Army, the cases were the last he used on the range. I hope he likes it.
What’s your release?
Made a river table as a present for a friend and old ARV crew mate who’s coming up to retirement. He’s a grumpy sod but I actually got a smile out of him so I don’t think it’s turned out too bad!
Dc Boston from my OP MAZE burglary team, excellent detective and yet another result to show how much they support our communities. Burglaries are intrusive, traumatic and such an invasion of privacy. My team will not stop pursuing people like this.
