Anyway, whats done is done - did JF need to make her statement - I say no, others say yes - there we have it, done and dusted - no more to be said from me .......

As I said - hopefully this will be a lesson for her and others like her.
I would not step out into the road without looking both ways or put my hand in a flame and that applied when I was a teenager as much as it does today.
Neither would I drink so much I was incapable of knowing what was happening to me or go to the hotel room of someone I hardly knew.
Had I done so I would be throughly ashamed of myself and would blame no one else if bad things happened to me.

Judy Finnigan:- Was quoting the judge in the case when she said that there was 'no bodily harm'. Both of them should know better. Rape is rape - and rape is always harmful!

You only have to murder someone once to be a murderer.
