Masked, out on licence and hunting for £70,000: the burglar shot in farm couple's bedroom

The "People" of the UK should just be outraged over this.
When a person can't protect their own, without being arrested for it, it's time to damned well change the rules.
Not only were they arrested but now they have to pay to defend themselves in a court of law over their own right to ensure their own survival.
What was Mr Ferrie supposed to do just watch, or perhaps direct him to the valuables?
There were 2 other involved and charged along with Mansell, this was a rape and murder just waiting to happen.

A burglar allegedly shot by homeowners during a botched raid was in the couple’s bedroom and wearing a mask when the weapon was fired, a court has heard.

Andy and Tracey Ferrie were woken in their remote cottage in the early hours by the sound of breaking glass and were confronted by masked Daniel Mansell, 33.

Mansell was out of prison on licence, after being released in March last year for a previous offence of grievous bodily harm. He had previous convictions for burglary of dwellings.

He claimed he was acting on a tip-off that there was £70,000 of cash in the house, and that it was being used to grow cannabis.

There was no evidence that any cash or cannabis was in the property, prosecutors said.

A shotgun was fired and Mansell was wounded in the hand. He fled the scene through a kitchen window and later attended the Leicester Royal Infirmary, where he was arrested on suspicion of aggravated burglary. Today he pleaded guilty to burglary with intent to steal at Loughborough Magistrates court

The victims were held for 2 days, and then finally given the opportunity to post bail.
What hell kind of justice is that? Now they're both going to have to get a lawyer (barrister)just because Mr. Ferrie, was doing what a husband is supposed to do, (which is EVERYTHING and ANYTHING)to protect his wife.
The pathetic part is that this is not even the first time that the Ferrie's had been victimised. They live in an extremely remote house, (which is cause for concern of theft, all by itself)and in this day and age, theft was probably the least of their concerns, over that of grievous bodily harm, which Mansell had coincidentally done and was on parole for.
Now I don't know what kind of grievous body harm he done before, but what I do know is that rape and murder fall into the grievous bodily harm category.
Do the courts really have expected for Mr.Ferrie to have done nothing? Well obviously they did since they were both arrested for WHAT exactly I'm not sure of. Perhaps it was for just being human, and wanting to preserve their own life.

Mr and Mrs Ferrie, who owned a legally held shotgun, were later arrested on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm.

They were held for two days for questioning, before being released on police bail, pending further inquiries, last night

Corporate fraud

http://www.articlesfree.co.uk/Art/4158/279/Corporate-Fraud-Laws-To-The-Rescue.html

Robo signers committed fraud, they were supposed to study over each case they signed off on for foreclosure to make sure all the necessities were in order to be able to foreclose.
MERS is more than just a case of fraud though, it also a entails grand theft charge for all those home that were taken from the fraud that was perpetrated against them.
In the UK and Hong Kong they also have a charge of corporate manslaughter.
If a corporate crime in any way had influence upon a persons death, said corporation can be charged with corporate manslaughter.
Think of all the people that have committed suicide over the loss of their homes, and the cold hard fact is, the banks had no legal rights to forclose, created by their own design (MERS) to protect their own greedy asses.

Criminology when referring to corporate crimes is the crimes that have been committed by the corporation or the persons involved with the day to day working of the organisation. This means that in the eyes of the law, a corporation is treated as an individual entity and any crime committed by the corporation may lead to imposition of penalties against it as well as the directors in charge of managing the company.

White collar crime refers to highly placed individuals in the upper echelons of a company that deliberately bend the law for their personal profit realisation. In this case the corporation is held accountable for the behaviour of its employees and may face restrictions as well as heavy fines. The majority of white collar crimes are committed out of greed rather than conceit.

The punishment for corporate fraud is generally a fine, and imprisonment ranging from 6 months to 10 years. It is difficult to detect corporate fraud, as people generally do not leave any trace of evidence, being masters at what they do.
