About time to see them marching for justice

[Oscar]

As far as I can see the issue is the suppression of some facts in the Louise Nicholls trial.

Being acquainted with those facts, I can see why on the face of it, it looks like injustice.

It's obviously a very difficult subject to discuss, being as how it's suppressed. However, the fundamental issue that's at stake here is actually one of the basic tenants of our legal system: you are assumed innocent until proved guilty. In short: the suppressed facts are still sub judice so they must be ignored.

Not any more its not. 40 k's over and it's an instant loss of licence. That's on the side of the road. It's judge jury and executioner for the HP boys in this regards.

I think the issue is; if a rape victims history can be used in court, why can't the defendants. Perhaps they should either allow or suppress both.

All will become clear in the passage of time...

Be careful guys. The suppression orders are still in force.

Now that this is over, I reckon the cops are going to pay her a visit...

Innocent until proven guilty? Someone has never had driving charges thrown at him...
In the ideal world, one would be innocent until proven guilty, but if you are either young, male or black it is an instant guilty plea.
