Police Helicopter Naked Filming Prosecution

7/20/2017

I read this article on the BBC and couldn’t resist a blog post.

 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-40645716

Why not follow the link now and have a giggle.

Some former officers from South Yorkshire Police are being prosecuted for using a force helicopter to film naked folk from the sky – the charges are multiple counts of misconduct in a public office.
​
In one instance, the coppers filmed a couple enjoying sexual intercourse in their back garden, the naked women even taking time to wave at the chaps and their big chopper. I’ll admit I read the news article and laughed out loud.

I find myself not exactly feeling the sense of outrage that is being expressed in other environments. Instead I think it’s all rather funny. To be completely inappropriate, how many 40-plus year old blokes wouldn’t enjoy a bit of public funded voyeurism if there was scope for it? How many blokes wouldn’t be happy enough to wave at a passing police helicopter (and then fail to complain when approached by the authorities) if they could just get their wives/partners to have sex with them in their back gardens (or just have sex with them at all)?

The officers are all about my age or thereabouts and have wrecked their careers is a very public and humiliating kind of way but I feel more sorry for them than cross. Busted by their buddies is going to hurt. Some harmless fun (depending upon one’s perspective) has proved to be anything but. If only they’d had jobs in airport security instead, they could have seen people naked in scanners every day without any such charge.

Still the bonking bobby got off of a more serious charge, so maybe these chaps have some hope. The trial may end up being a waste of more public money. Three weeks until it’s over, I’ll be paying attention to the outcome.

Update: 04/08/17
The public sector voyeurs got away with it, they have been cleared of public misconduct. In effect, the guy that already confessed took the fall for everyone – the other defendants claimed they didn’t know that what they were watching from their chopper was being filmed…

Hilarious. 

But what a complete waste of public funds!
