Clacton: Police officer assaulted couple
By Tom Weatherill
A police officer has today been convicted of assaulting a husband and wife in their Essex home.
The husband died hours after the incident in June last year.
PC Gary Jay had gone to the house in Berkeley Road, Clacton, after hearing shouting.

It was here that Ronnie O'Reilly and his wife Moira were assaulted.
Mr O'Reilly then collapsed in the kitchen and died on his way to Colchester General Hospital.
At Southend Magistrates' Court today judge Kevin Gray convicted Jay, 41, of assaulting Mr and Mrs O'Reilly.
Jay was given a three-month prison sentence, suspended for 12 months, must carry out 200 hours of unpaid work and pay £2,000 towards costs.
The judge said the assault was aggravated by Jay's position of trust, in that he was a police office and was trespassing in the house.

Disgraceful!
If that had been anyone else, they would have been sent to prison!
The cops (enforcers of TPTB) get away with it again.
A public outcry is needed.
I'll bet the CPS don't appeal the leniency of the sentence!

i agree!!!! 3 months for murder what the fuck is going wrong with the world
you get 5 years for walking on the street with a knuckle duster
can get life imprisonment for cultivation of cannabis or incestuous relationships ( i disagree with them but life imprisonment seems a little severe no? wouldn't a restraining order be equally effective?)
This is truly turning into a police state and the ease with which police can be let off over issues such as this is truly disturbing.
Another far far more disturbing issue i have heard of locally is the death of an inmate inside police cells at the hands of officers, which didn't even make the news!!!!! i only found this out through personal contacts but it did definitely happen

This is an outrage. Especially when the Government claim they are concerned with knife crime a copper gets no prison time for killing someone?!:mad::mad::mad:
This is a Police state we are living in for sure, no doubts any more. I think the Government and those that control it are going to keep pushing us until we push back and then they will declare a state of emergency for martial law.

The Only Good Outcome Is If The Pig Is Killed In Jail Which I Hope He Is.

A suspended sentence means that he will not be going to jail.
Suspended for suspended for 12 months, must carry out 200 hours of unpaid work and pay £2,000 towards costs, means that:-
He has to carry out 200 hours unpaid work.
+
He has to pay £2,000.
He has to do this within a time set by 1) the Court, 2) agreed with the Probation people.
If he does not do these things THEN he will do three months in jail.
The jail sentence can be applied within the 12 months i.e. after 13 months he cannot be jailed at all.
In other words he will never do any prison time!
He (and the other police who tried to 'cover' for him as invariably happens) probably think the only thing he did wrong was to get caught.
Police who do get sent to jail in the UK almost always go to a 'soft' prison e.g. an open prison, anyway.
