I'm
assuming good faith, and I agree with Jimmy and others that this is
ultimately a matter for the police.
Accusation comes from the "friend" of a throwaway account. Looking at the
list of accusations. Swiping a laptop would be doable but not easy and as
someone who tends to stay to the end of meetups I would expect to have
heard about it. iPhones tend not to be much in evidence and people just
don't leave money lying around.
WMUK has never owned an expensive DSLR (in fairness this may be a case of
someone not realising what expensive means in a DSLR context) . The DSLRs
it does own were both present in December 2013 and can be seen on the left
