On Sunday, South Yorkshire Police issued a new statement, saying: "Officers received reports of an assault at Barnsley Football Club today, Saturday, 13 April, this incident has been crimed and will be thoroughly investigated." "Crimed" ?! I ask you, South Yorkshire's finest verbing a noun

"Crimed" ?! I ask you, South Yorkshire's finest verbing a noun I'm with you, the English language is going to pot. Americans did enough damage, but modern IT, particularly texting, is destroying the language. But "to crime" actually a verb nowadays conjugator.reverso.net/conjugation-english-verb-crime.html

In this case I don't even think 'crimed' means 'committed a crime', instead it means 'registered as a crime'. HoHum!

"Crimed" in this sense means someone filled out a crime report and generated a crime number, which officially records a crime as occuring. As far as I'm aware it's police jargon though, not a real verb.

I used to work in the police control room and crimed is how we referred to an incident having being sent from the command and control through to the crime system.

I knew I should watch more cop dramas, I tried 'Line of Duty' last night on BBC1 but I think the writer had attended the University of Abbreviations so the cast spent the whole time spouting letters of the alphabet in lieu of meaningful sentences :-)

Of course, if you were speaking to someone from the West Midlands conurbation, "crimed" would be acceptable as a culinary term - for example "crimed loiks". It's a losing battle, and I try to let it wash over me (life is simply too short). I think you may find that "crimed" never featured in in Z Cars, Softly Softly, Columbo, Kojak - and certainly not Morse.

At least there's some logic to butchering the language in this way. Don't get me started on the growing number of people who don't know the difference between bias and biased, using a noun as an adjective never mind a verb.

But if McGarrett had been a native of Dudley, Danno (the wonderful James MacArthur) might have taken the perp over to the Big Island, and beaten the living crap out of him.

Speaking of Dudley do you remember a TV campaign from forever ago appealing for public cooperation in fighting criminality? The catch line delivered in a strong Black Country accent was "Crime, together we'll crack it" :-)

One of these days the little scrote will get his come uppence with the damned good thrashing he deserves. I hope his blood spattered, ugly little mug is shown worldwide in every media!

Apparently a good way to calm down badly trained/socialised dogs is to chop their bollocks off.....just a thought.
