Photographs, the doctor and Jackson himself have confirmed that she was bleeding. Paddy Jackson, Stuart Olding and Rory Harrison acknowledged during or after the trial that she was upset. Does the above make the statement that she left their company bleeding and hysterical true or false? I imagine you're going to back this up with evidence that I said any of this or are you just going to bumble and bluster. Again, evidence where I said I would have found the men guilty. I have said so many ****ing times that the verdict of Not Guilty was the right one. If you actually read posts instead of reading what you wanted to read you would have seen that. Don't call me a dangerous individual when you have absolutely no basis for it. I have only ever given my opinion based off FACTS of this case and how it could affect Jackson and Olding's careers being restarted in Ireland. Funny enough, they agree with me in the sense that the woman did not leave Jackson's house in a good state, yet you seem intent on disagreeing with it. Oh the irony is strong on this statement. Now, back up your accusations you've made about me or piss off and let the adults talk.

They are implying the woman was left a bloody mess after the threesome which means great force was used on her.
They are raging the all the blood found doesnt belong to the woman who alleged rape but the fact that its there is enough to paint Jackson as somebody who regularly injures women in his house.
I really, really hope Faugheen is never called for jury service involving any man accused of any crime whatsoever and particularly not the crime of rape. Faugheen not only would ignore factual evidence, he or she would make up evidence in order to justify themselves and everyone else on the jury to send an innocent person to jail.
Faugheen is a very dangerous individual and its frightening that the PSNI and the PPS could bring such a ridiculous case, you would like to think the PPS would spot a case full of holes and thereby prevent the like of faugheen getting to pass judgment on anyone.
There are none so blind as though who wont see.

If you wish to flippantly believe that the size of the legal team is meaningless to proceedings then you underestimate the money these guys charge. I didn't say 12 big bad barristers....anywhere!!! It was not for want of trying that the trial made it to the very end, in alleged rape cases, that in itself is quiet rare. Let me guess...it waz the feminazis wot did it!!

I think we will all have to accept there was some blood on the sheets - how much I don’t know. But that doesn’t make it rape.

tretorn wrote: » Yes, I do think some power was behind the decision, the case was so full of holes it was like a sieve. It was very strnage for the PPS to come out afterwards with such a biased statement, they couldnt praise the woman enough for her bravery in coming forward but yet she was humiliated by the jurys decision, nothing to see here, let the men go. Its not normal for the PPS to make statements after cases or at least I dont think so anyway, its highly inappropriate, the PPS should have been apologising to Jackson and Olding for what they had been put through because this case was allowed to go to trial. What was so special about this case that the PPS came out and made a public statement about it.

We saw this week details that the defence successfully argued should not be presented to the jury...there were literally dozens of other legal arguments that the defence made in an attempt to get the judge to direct the jury to acquit. See that is the job of the defence, normally one barrister and maybe one other solicitor/junior counsel....in this case there was a legal team of 12!!!!!! 12, including 4 barristers....who have argued every minute detail in this case in an attempt to collapse the trial...before the case made it to court it was the object of a number of different motions.... If you think this case should never have gone court you must believe that there was some other dark force behind it...requiring you to jump through yet another hoop in the desperate attempt to believe the lads were hard done by... But like you correctly said...there is none so blind as those who cannot see!

ArthurDayne wrote: » Ok well let's apply your argument to its logical conclusion. The only way to effectively enforce your view that celebrities be subject to a different law than everyone else when it comes to their private life is to actually have a law. Let's call this hypothetical law the Celebrity Act 2018. The Celebrity Act 2018 stipulates: "1. All people of public renown (with 'of renown' to be determined via the court's interpretation) shall be subject to the rule that all of their private statements must at all times be respectful, in line with public morality and inoffensive to the public or a section of the public. 2. Those who breach this Act at any stage of their life shall have committed an offence and shall be automatically deprived of their employment and their right to seek employment in that industry indefinitely" So there you go. Now you have your opinion cemented in law and all those in positions of 'celebrity' and public renown are now subject to a legal framework where they must conform to morality at all times. Yes it's scary 'Police State' dictatorship kind of stuff. But morality is saved, and celebrities shall never offend anyone again . . . and if they do they shall suffer the consequences. I appreciate the above example is somewhat ham-fisted (statutory drafting is not my forte) but would you like to see a law like that being implemented? If you would, then explain why. If not, then why would you not?

And they don't look good, they maybe didn't mean anything bad personally but we are not dealing with their intimate personality, we only have the image they project publicly. They became a symbol of something. Not letting them play might unfair to them but letting them play might be hurtful to a whole bigger group of people. It would also create impression that verbally abusing women is ok.

Unnamed men are walking free from courts everyday acquitted of rape and no one is dancing on their grave, Jackson and olding were named so they are to be the scapegoats for all sexual deviants. We have no evidence that it was but we have no evidence that he had anything but consensual sex with anyone either and that doesnt stop us wanting his head.

She cant have bled much because I dont think there was blood on her jeans, I might be wrong about that, I thought it was only on her underwear. One of the defence counsel said he had no intention of saying whose blood it was, he didnt say it couldnt be ascertained who it belonged to.

You could have at least attempted to defend your use of the term 'mansplaining' but instead have chosen the easy way out with a petty swipe. I hope we can debate again sometime without you telling me that my gender renders my opinions of lesser worth to you. Instead, I can only extrapolate that you're somewhat irked at having your hypocrisy called out and thrown back at you.
