Comfort break? I remember the first time I heard the expression (at a corporate interview). Took me a while to work out what was being said. Being autistic doesn’t help, for god’s sake just say what is meant instead of clouding things in fluffy language. Of course I wasn’t expecting them to ask if I wanted a piss/slash, but asking if I needed the toilet would have been fine.
Just because something is freely accessible, doesn’t mean it’s ok to copy it and use it for commercial gain. If I go into an exhibition, museum or gallery which is free and open to the public, it may be possible to take photos. If I then go and use those photos to print and flog on T-shirts, posters etc., that’s not right.
If the perp had the victim’s phone, he probably had access to the victim’s email too. So perfectly feasible that he had the detective’s email address if the detective had been emailing the victim.
Maybe he was reading their emails and felt guilty? Replied to the wrong message? Copied the wrong address down? Autocomplete error?
