Its a hard one yeah?
Its sad that in this day and age that many people easily jump to the conclusion that someone is a paedophile, any man with a young girl not known to be his daughter is almost always met with thoughts or accusations regarding his intentions.
Its sad, and often why many men choose to leave teaching
But you can understand societies fear, it is something so vile and horrifying.
I can understand someone being wary of a man hanging around a playground. Imagine if you did nothing and that person did offend, though I can see the other side too.
Being someone who has been exposed to young ones who have been sexually abused, it is something that does make me instantly react. It is easy to see why it is something that many people have such a strong opinions and reactions to.
I do think we don't need to know who it is but given the information I have read I don't agree with the outcome. Though like I, and many people have said, it is always hard to know the full story
If it is true that the woman has twisted this, she would be as bad. It is like, no worse, than a woman falsely claiming someone raped her. Bringing her child into it? God my mind boggles at how twisted these people must be
O.K so I guess I did the wrong thing and won't be doing that again....NOT!!!
If I see that sick fuck there again, I'll call the police again.
Common sense will tell you if there is some sicko lurking, and this one most certainly was. We just didn't feel comfortable leaving him there with those kids, was that wrong?
What if we did nothing coz we didn't want to look paranoid, and he ended up taking one of those kids? he looked like he wanted too. Would we have been forgiven? I think not.
I think it's a little strange that so many people on here are defending these people.
I recall some years ago when my daughter was at High School I took her shopping and as we walked along the street she took my arm. We were amazed, (and amused) by the dirty looks we had aimed at us!
A couple of years ago I was walking the dog along the street not long after I moved here and a little girl, (about 7-8.) came rushing out to pat the dog. I heard her mother scream at her from inside not to talk to strangers. Funnily enough we have since become quite good friends. (Sorry for the hi-jack.)

I don't really think the 'facts' of the case are super secret or anything for those of you defending the 'comedian'. He was pissed...he removed a 4 year old girls pajama bottoms and pull up nappies and was found to be kissing her. He pleaded guilty to it, but claims he was so pissed he didn't know what he was doing. Tough shit. Jail time.

Be the person your dog thinks you are...
We will have to agree to disagree there boys. Innocent until proven guilty. I am not saying he didn't do anything wrong, but you can not prove he did. Neither could the prosecution for that matter, or they would not have offered the plea bargain.
You are essentially turning this into a witch hunt. What are your attitudes towards the KKK? The comments on this thread amount to the same thing. You don't have all the facts (FACT), yet you are willing to burn him at the stake.
I am not defending the man himself, I have no idea whether there was any crime commited or not (and neither do you). I am defending the right of everyone to due process, and in this instance we have to believe that has been followed.
I will refer to my earlier comment re raspberries. YOU weren't there, YOU don't know what happened (excepting what you have read in the media, which we are all so ready to rubbish when it so suits and they are misguiding the public in regard to motorcycles).
If you were ever set up, I know you would expect the same rights as this man was afforded. Did you do it or not? I don't know, but before you were convicted I would sure like to see PROOF that you were guilty.
I didn't think!!! I experimented!!!
