“While these red kites may not have been deliberately targeted it is clear that unlawful use of poisons was involved.”
Someone getting their defence in early then?…there was absolutely no need for the police to make that comment…they dont even know if its really a poisoning or not…
Waiting for test results since august??…Come on…with modern analytical techniques it only takes days to get a result….something doesnt add up here?
Cause of death is by far the most important part of any investigation – if they cant even get that right….they look like amateurs.
