  It says ‘anyone who witnessed the incident or who had footage of the assault’. So perhaps they aren’t interested in sightings outside of that. Perhaps its about gathering sources of evidence for charges rather than finding / identifying the offenders.

  Apparently the perpetrators fled the scene before the police arrived. So your suggestion wasn’t an option in this case.

  And when the police do manage to find these people, I can think of a few other things the police might like to try before resorting to killing people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A survey found 1 in 6 men admit sexual feelings for children. So is paedophilia increasing? (2023, linked study is worth a read).⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The researchers also found:

  • around one in ten (9.4%) Australian men has sexually offended against children

  Does that figure accurately reflect the Australian population? Like, 1 in eleven men (roughly) have acted on some sexual impulse with a child. That sounds pretty high. I know a lot of adult males; so with that kind of statistic (and the follow-up about their typical backgrounds), it would be highly likely that I know a few sexual offenders without realising it.
