The man in Sedgefield who said he was attacked by youths told lies he was never attacked he was drunk and fell ..
Very positive news on the multy agency walkabout for the station on Friday, involving police, home group, council etc. Particular attention given to utter disgrace most of the properties are in, mainly the residents but home group jointly.
Let’s see what changes are made hopefully for the better.
Like the houses that have been boarded up for over a year? Like the houses east East Durham homes are trying to sell off that keep having windows smashed out? Like the houses with scum who are chucking their old tat in the roads and dead rabbits in people’s recycle bins? Get rid of the culprits and we will have a community again.
Agreed. I hope there’s a good clean out. You must complain to both housing associations. Everyday if you have to.
Takes a long time to get thieves to court – this since 2014???? Lets hope his soliciter gets someone like him living next door, won’t be so quick to defend scum then.

Hope the piece of shit gets sent down, then the rest evicted
He’s been sent down 4 years. 1 more to go and then the rest of the scum family.

My nieces cat was ripped to bits in their front garden last night in front of her kids!
Car drove past, saw her cat Lilly in the garden, stopped, shoved the dogs out & set them onto the cat.
Lilly was savagely attacked to the point where her insides were no longer inside of her. My sister and her children witnessed this! When my sister ran into the garden the car (which had driven off down the lines) then re-appeared and whistled for the dogs to go back.
Cat is dead, ripped to bits and is in the front garden waiting for the police to come! Apparently they were coming straight out last night but never showed!!
Dogs were a sandy coloured saluki type & black & brown whippet type, car was silver possibly Passat, Mondeo size.
