If you flip the tables and she was accused of this, brought to court by the state, with the same evidence, the same witnesses, the same reasonable doubt and her access to her own representation and character witnesses, how could a jury find her guilty? They couldn't. If that verdict happens, then what?

Some things don’t live up to your expectations and you can be left very upset as a result of it, especially if your flute (my case) or vagina (her case) is used during this disappointing experience and you can experience an awful lot of regret as a result of it. I believe this is what happened to yer one. I also got up and went down on this massive fat yoke whilst skin deep in lager and regretted it massively the following day...**** happens, she got roasted and didn’t like it, hard luck. This testimony should’ve been used in the defences closing arguments.

I didn't say you 'attacked ' the defence. I said you 'slanted' the view of the trial to make it look like only the defence was using these tactics. Before going on a rant, understand what is being said. It isn't the first time somebody has sensationalised or misrepresented what went on in the trial. Carry on.

Silentcorner wrote: » What rubbish...you will not address any points, your slippery style won't fool me. OK you agree she was in tears getting home, you also suggested that same young woman got a better deal than the two lads. Where is the empathy in that? Answer that please? I recognised that I place a lot of importance on her state of distress. As in I have recognised that I place a lot of importance on her state of distress....I have asked another poster to answer a question for me that might help me understand that I may be incorrect in thinking that. You are even more blinkered than I am, at least I have a little room for understanding that I might be getting something wrong. If you are going to answer this post, please read it properly and please answer that specific question that you are refusing to answer.

Her state never once made him feel he had to take it further, alert police etc. She was allowing herself to be comforted by one of the strangers in the house. (Head on his chest etc) She said nothing about an assault/rape. That is what we know, nothing more, as far as I can see from the reports.

Is there anything in those 4 points you cannot understand? You're floundering badly in this thread lately, and failing to make any sense, or make a point that hasnt been repeatedly rebuffed, and have resorted to ad hominens which are becoming more frequent as you slip beneath the surface... What question is it you think you've clearly asked that im avoiding? Theres only one of us spoofing now Silentcorner...

She didnt want to be known as a harlot around Belfast so she made a rape claim to save face that she would never consent to what she done that night in spite of any stories going around False rape claims are made all the time. Look at Quinton Hann, Look at Robin Van Persie. The accusation is made without any consequences for the future
Silentcorner wrote: » Where have you shown empathy for the young lady in this case? Don't keep dodging it or lacing your answer in deflection. Answer that question please, where have you shown any empathy for the young woman in this case. The one you suggested got a great deal in those two fine specimen that were accused of wrongdoing. I am repeating myself because you are avoiding that direct question.

Roger Hassenforder wrote: » Hi Matlock Ive repeatedly said ive empathy for a girl in tears. Ive repeadedly said ive empathy for a girl raped. If/as she was in tears, ipso facto, point 1 applies. So where have i said i had no empathy for her? Where have i given any indication i had no empathy for the complainant. Harken back to "that post" if you will. Nowhere is there an expression of no empathy. Lets remind ourselves in case theres lawyers watching, those accused of "wrongdoing" were acquitted...

Again with the slant. The same as the prosecution tried. :rolleyes: Why didn't the 'big strong rugby players' not gang up on anybody else there that night, who had a 'pleasant enjoyable' night out?
Faugheen wrote: » Yeah that's fair, but from Jackson and Olding's point of view, it wasn't crossing a line because they weren't to know that she wasn't consenting to it (because she 'froze'). That idea also explains where the 'no, not him as well' that she claims to have said fits in in her narrative as well. I think they're all telling the truth about their perceptions of the night, to be honest. Except Blane McIlroy. Even the complainant and Jackson agree that he wasn't in the room. The funniest part of the trial (if you can say that) for me was when he was in the dock and Jackson's barrister was cross-examining him, and asked him if he agreed with the perception of his friends that he talked '****e', and he actually agreed.
