    Now watch the BPS + DPP write it up as simply a theft rather than robbery so they can keep their ‘violnt crime’ statistics down—which will also keep it away from Justice Greaves in Supreme Court+ permit it to be dealt with in Magistrate’s Court where Magistrate Tokunbo can give another one of his non-deterrent probation sentences!! And the public wonders why these violent crimes continue+continue??
