Likely to be 2nd degree murder charge due to leaving the person to die (intent), hope that sticks.
UK justice system take note!!!
I would naively expect the police to do the detective work rather than the public. At least they caught the scumbag though - now they just need to lock him up and throw away the key!
Do you really believe it would be practical to run a team in a police department dedicated to identifying obscure car parts?
If they suspect anyone has been run over by a mk2 golf I could help.
Why - who did you run over ?
It's got to be a great outcome to the investigation. It's clearly ludicrous to expert the police to be experts on all cars - and to put it out on the web makes a lot of sense. As this proves.
They can anything on CSI, I'm with the op on this.
If it were CSI they'd not only recognise the part, they'd have a purpose-written software suite dedicated exclusively to car part recognition, complete with an entirely unnecessary and incredibly-elaborate virtual-reality user-interface in which you wandered around a fully rendered 3d car-part store while parts leapt off the shelf and compared themselves to the part you were holding.
Our cops are clearly in the stone-age compared with the Yanks. Though at least they are much less likely to shoot you for no reason, so its swings-and-roundabouts.
Be a bit of a shit show, this new breed of cop show.
Cop A: Alright Bob.
Cop B: Alright Dave! What've you got there?
Cop A: It's that frangment we found at the scene.
Cop B: Christ! I can hardly see it, stick it on Twitter while I stick the kettle on.
Cop A: good thinking Bob.
Cop B: nice cuppa, Dave.
Cop A: Cheers Bob.
Cop B: Hey Dave we've got a hit, it was that shifty looking bloke!
Cop A: Book him Danno.
Cop B: But my name's Bob and 'e's nicked!
More exciting shite at the same time next week.
