ArabiaTerra Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 Too funny not to share: http://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2012/02/25/fbi-turns-off-thousands-of-gps-devices-after-supreme-court-ruling/ After a recent court ruling the FBI turned off 30,000 GPS trackers. They are now applying for warrants to turn them back on again... so they can find them! Edit: Ooops, that should be 3000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJ Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-17194606 "The journalist, who remains on bail on suspicion of phone hacking and corruption, was lent the retired police horse in 2008, the Met said. Mrs Brooks paid for food and vet bills until it was rehoused with a police officer in 2010." So let me get this right, the woman took on a retired police horse until it could be re-homed. She stabled, fed and paid veterinary costs for 2 years. Being a keen horsey person and married to a racehorse trainer she was well equipped to foster a older horse until a suitable home was found. Where is the scandal? Why has this been on every news bulletin today? Do people have any idea how much it costs to look after a horse for 2 years? Not that I particularly approve of the woman, but why something that'd usually be counted as a good deed suddenly be counted as something that should be treated as a crime? I'm confuzald? (she saved the Met somewhere between £6,500 & £10,000 pa) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizzyKipper Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 I think the point is she supposedly returned it in a 'poor' state see http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-17200560 Also that it could have been seen as cosying up between the police and the press, so lending her a horse might not have been such a wise move, even if it was all innocent.
