Sorry, mixed you up with someone else in this thread.

I don't believe that 11 armed people turned up to arrest her. I've never heard of such a thing.

Edit: ok, I'm going to assume you had no idea that UK police officers are not routinely armed. Armed officers are specifically trained and only deployed when the suspect is thought to be armed. Most of those were probably IT to check computers and devices.

She pled guilty to the charge on the advice of her lawyer.

Edit 2: actually the more I read on this the less I believe. An initial contact by the police would be 2 police officers, they would knock at the door and ask to speak to you. How did they get a warrant to get in? Is this all completely bullshit?
