Police plan ’supermarket cells’ to hold shoplifters and drunks

Supermarket police cells could be set up in shopping malls and town centres to hold shoplifters, drunks and other short-term offenders.
The short-term lockups could hold prisoners for up to four hours where they would be finger-printed, photographed and have a DNA sample taken.
They would allow beat bobbies to remove offenders from circulation without spending too long off the street themselves.

Offenders held in the cells could then either be released with a fine, or referred for further action or charging.
The so-called “supermarket cells” have already been piloted in Selfridges on Oxford Street.
The plans are outlined in the a review of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act as part of the first major shakeup of law-enforcement powers in more than 20 years.

“and have a DNA sample taken.”
Of course, they couldn’t skip that one could they?

All you need now is a judge to pass sentence, like the stadium in Philly.

Next step will be more of the same everywhere – like every few hundred yards on the street will be a holding cell.
