Didn't the judge rule that the slaying of John William Fordman was self-defence and he was killed in course of a crime (not legal or contractual "duty")? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.40.176.73 ( talk) 20:39, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
Currently the deaths are listed alphabetically by the name of the officer. I think it would be better listed chronologically because you might see trends then in the frequency of officers dying in the line of the duty or in the manner of their deaths. 46.208.103.219 ( talk) 02:39, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
The list seems not to be a full list. The words "British" and "English" are both used. In Police sites, those dying of accident or disease are included, not only those killed by criminals acting deliberately. Many were killed by German bombing in the Second World War. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.97.194.200 ( talk) 12:09, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
Frank Taylor is down as "Humberside Police," which obviously can't be correct for 1948. Do we know which force Taylor was actually with at the time? Nick Cooper ( talk) 10:56, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
Northern Ireland is part of the United Kingdom. People of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, for short Britain, have British Nationality and can hold British passports. Police officers killed in the line of duty from the Police Service of Northern Ireland and the earlier Royal Ulster Constabulary were British citizens. To say they are not British is an insult to their memory. The list omits those police officers from the list, but there should at least be some mention about their deaths in the introduction. It may be a good idea to have a separate list for the Northern Irish police officers, sadly because the list is so long. HLE ( talk) 14:33, 25 August 2011 (UTC)
If that "Road traffic accident while transporting a prisoner" is the incident I think it is the prisoner deliberately caused the car to crash by attacking the driver in order to escape. 46.208.103.219 ( talk) 02:35, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
