The Northern Violences: a precursor - Paul Rigby - 09-07-2010
Northern England is in the grip of a depression-era crime saga, with a second "loan-nut" in rapid succession running round - this time, North-East, as opposed to North-West - the countryside mysteriously eluding the entire police force of England, and threatening to liquidate the nation.
First came a taxi driver called Bird, who went on a killing spree for reasons not yet clarified, now comes a recently-released-from-prison former-bouncer called Moat:

Raoul Moat issues new threat as hunt continues
Fugitive threatens to widen his 'war' with Northumberland police to include members of the public
A friend reminded me last night that Moat has a precursor. No source for the paragraph he sent me, but here it is:
Quote:Barry Peter Prudom (18 October 1944 – 4 July 1982) was an English electrician and multiple murderer who became the subject of a wide-scale police manhunt involving 10 police forces after killing police constable David Haigh on 17 June 1982. Before being captured he killed twice more, shooting George Luckett on 23 June 1982 and police sergeant David Winter on 28 June 1982. Described as an "avid outdoorsman and firearms enthusiast" Prudom's knowledge of military survival skills learned while serving as a volunteer in the Territorial Army helped him evade capture for 18 days as he hid out in rural areas in the north of England. When eventually found by the police, who had enlisted the help of "Jungle" Eddie McGee, a former Special Air Service (S.A.S.) member, to track him, Prudom committed suicide by firing a single shot to his head. It later transpired that Prudom had previously attended survival courses run by McGee, and had also owned a manual on survival techniques written by the S.A.S. veteran.
The deep state is up to something, almost certainly plural.

That's right officer. Don't let her out of your sight. You can just tell she's as gulty as sin of something. Unpaid library fines. Any move on her part and shoot to kill. Meanwhile officer plod is pilfering the Avon samples in the boot. Or do they really think they have him stashed away in between the lipsticks and eye shadows?
