Re: Stuart Hall sentence

Genuine victims deserve genuine recompense Pats, nobody's denying that but I think that quite a few people feel that what we now refer to as sex abuse, such as a quick feel or even a grope wasn't classed as assault then by the victim or the alleged abuser and if someone's life was really 'shattered' then they've had ample resources and opportunity to come forward before now., I understand and respect your opinion so hopefully we'll agree to disagree on this subject,

Are you suggesting the police are now too emotional and 'not' looking at the cases 'calmly' .....
There have been many mistakes and mis-handling by the police, why assume all following cases follow the same lines. Each case taken on its own credability surely...


No I think the public are being too emotional and the police are being adversely affected by the atmosphere of moral panic surrounding these issues currently.

I don't really want to be too controversial here. In all fairness back and forth serious discussion isn't a big feature of this site. So I'll abstain.

I see in your profile, Mothball. You are a self confessed Luddite.

Having not viewed Mothballs profile, I fail to see a connection to the thread, there is a strong possibility I am missing something.

Re: Stuart Hall sentence

Why has a member's profile been introduced to the topic? what if she were a self confessed genius, would it matter?

Turns mine too Pats. No one knows what has actually happened to the ones who have come forward to speak up after all these years, and yet people are speculating about their reasons for doing it. It seems some are quick to judge the victims and brand them as gold diggers when they have no clue what has happened. I have done with this thread too, makes me feel ill.
