"as someone has pointed out, the number of witnesses with modern devices such has digital cameras, mobile phones with cameras etc...makes this particular incident high profile"
the number of people with cameras etc made this particular incident high profile. It's unfortunate that there is no evidence either way, as to whether this was an isolated incident or whether it wasn't, and it's unlikely there ever will be conclusive evidence. As to who committed the offence,it doesn't matter cruelty is cruelty regardless, name calling and finger pointing is pointless.
