TRAPPED IN A MASONIC WORLD

what is and what isn‘t true, unjust or unfair and leave it to the evidence to speak for itself, and for the jury
to return with the right and just verdict? The judge agreed that he had fired in self-defence believing,
mistakenly, that he himself was about to be shot. Why was this rookie allowed to lead the field to begin,
where they hoping he might get shot first? In March 2009 Sussex Police agreed to compensate and
apologise to Ashley‘s family. The police admitted negligence, that there had been a series of police
failures, but not unlawful killing. Ashley‘s son however maintained the killing was illegal, and these kind
of intentional blunders have been going on for years.
Stephen Waldorf was a 26-year-old film editor who was shot and severely injured by Metropolitan
Police officers in London, England on 14 January 1983, [15] when he was misidentified as an escaped
prisoner, David Martin. Martin was rearrested shortly after the shooting and was found guilty at Old
Bailey of the attempted murder of PC Nicolas Carr and was sentenced to life in prison. It‘s alleged he later
committed suicide in his prison cell in 1984. PC Jardine and PC Finch stood trial for attempted murder
and attempted wounding of Waldorf, but were cleared of all charges in October 1983. Waldorf eventually
made a full recovery and was paid £120,000 compensation by the Metropolitan Police. - Open Fire, a TV
drama about David Martin and the shooting of Stephen Waldorf, was made by London Weekend
Television and shown on the ITV network on the 21st November 1994.
On the 22/9/1999 Harry Stanley was shot dead by police. Stanley was born in Bellshill, near Glasgow,
Scotland and moved to London in the early 1970‘s in search of work. He married his childhood
sweetheart, Irene and had three children, and grandchildren, and lived in Hackney, East London. The 46year-old
painter and decorator had only recently been released from hospital after an operation for colon
cancer at the time of his death. On that fatal day he was returning home from the Alexandra pub in South
Hackney carrying, in a plastic bag, a table leg that had been repaired by his carpenter brother earlier that
day. It‘s alleged, someone had phoned the police to report; an Irishman with a gun wrapped in a bag.
Close to his home, Inspector Neil Sharman and PC Kevin Fagan, the crew of a Metropolitan Police Armed
Response Vehicle allegedly challenged Mr. Stanley from behind, and as he turned to face them, they shot
him dead at a distance of 15 feet. [16]
Our country has no capital punishment for very good reasons, and mainly because of many miscarriages
of justice occurred and innocent people were executed. What we cannot allow to develop is a shoot to kill
policy, in which the police are executing people who may, in time, be persuaded to drop their weapons or
who can be rendered harmless by non-fatal shots to the body. [17] Or is something much more sinister
arising here, by the police adopting a way to eradicate certain members of society, whilst at the same time
getting a much wider message across to the rest of us, like they did once in Northern Ireland?

Shoot to Kill in USA
Whilst on this ―Shoot to Kill‖ subject and bearing in mind the size of the USA, and the shootings that
seem to happen as often as our politicians fiddle the tax payer, I simply can‘t cover much on this subject,
so have just highlighted a couple of cases, but nevertheless cases that could have been dealt with in other
