Well, bear in mind you're seeing a carefully composed and cropped photo; she's probably not the only cop there. But she's only guarding a crime scene to preserve evidence...how much force does that take in a London suburb, with backup a radio call away? On a day when a hell of a lot else is going on that requires manpower?
