So, given that she said she couldn't remember events later in the evening, what was the shaping you are very keen to emphasise? To be specific, what did she start out saying and what was this shaped into? Oh, and where's your evidence for this claim? You do have some evidence, don't you?
No they weren't, you didn't answer any I put to you, nor many from others.
Oh. And he replied no worries love never mind your bag I've got this hotel room booked?
That seems to be your stock answer for anything you don't like.
I'm sorry to hear that, but I don't blame you for walking away. It's taken a deeply frustrating turn.
His posting history indicates he's a big football fan - footballers couldn't possibly be sexual predators, now, could they? but I'm speculating...
Before you get too carried away, ask yourself this. Did she give evidence in court? If the answer is yes, then everything she said outside of 'I don't remember' would have been vetted and approved by the professionals, who had put their reputations on the line in rushing to judgement on the matter themselves. So if she went down in flames so did they. It's common practice. Barristers on both sides would go through the witness statements line by line. Inch by inch. Along with their clients. if something erroneous appears they will draw their clients attention to it, and in a lawyerly way of course - point to the possible pitfall. And help them step round it.
Yes, that's speculation. And a bit silly, not least off all because I'm a season ticket holder!
No sillier than some of the posts
Well, yeah, we know all that, but perhaps with slightly less scope for changing when she has consistently said she doesn't remember. So, essentially, no specific evidence at all that her evidence was in any way altered....
I'm sorry for your health problems.
I agree with you, as I've admitted before. But the fact that she walked away from her handbag like that, and told M about having mislaid it does seem like a piece of evidence quite significant to the case built that she was in no fit state to give meaningful consent in the eyes of the law / the jury etc.
If you're in the midst of an alcoholic blackout, that's exactly the kind of thing that happens. You lose shit, including important shit. You put something down then forget that you've put it down. You've lost, or had severely disrupted, the ability to lay down new memories.
Well politics is probably the most aggressive of all the urban forums, so if you feel it's too much try general which is much lighter in tone.
