I find it quite beyond belief that he will have to go through it all again. The police and CPS were incompetent with Savill and are now trying to redeem themselves by persecuting DLT.

I tend to agree. They do seem to be on a witch hunt now. They wont be happy until he drops from a stress related heart attack or tops himself.

Leave the man alone now.

They obviously still feel they have a case.
They are damned if they give up and damned if they proceed.
I disagree, they're only damned if they proceed. Looks like a face saving exercise and to hell with the human cost.

Flogging a saving face dead horse.
So, a further hearing for DLT will take place at the end of next month.

A month later Rolf is back in court.

Keep it rolling along, keep costing the taxpayer. It's like a bloody pantomime.

And just to point out again, all the allegations against Saville regardless of whether he was the evil bd, are still all 'alleged', every single allegation is 'alleged', all regardless of whether he committed the dreadful deeds or if he did not.

BUT notice how the word 'alleged' is dropped everywhere now, it's never, ever, mentioned.
So there you have it, he 'did' it!
No ifs, no buts, he's guilty as sin.

Innocent until 'proven' guilty, eh?

CPS march on.

My only surprise in all of this is that the Chuckle Brothers haven't been up yet.

Highly suspicious looking pair, particularly the one on the right.

I bet the CPs are hoping that there will be a flood of "victims" who come forward now to bolster their case. To most right minded people this is vindictive action. If the CPS had a case they would have proved it at the last court case, they failed to do so and after all the press coverage will it be a fair trial?

I was always told when in a hole stop digging, but in the legal world the cps are funded by us and have nothing to lose, DLT on the other hand has already lost a nice home, his income and now they want to take more as the legal cost to defend this again will be huge and he cannot claim this back. What a strange world we live in

They already turned up as witnesses in one of the trials.

The only thing Barry is guilty of is being a massive stoner.

I don't think you can blame the CPS for the press working out that they won't get sued.

I was reading the other day how Chris moles grabbed one of the spice girls breasts and described them on air.


Funny old world.

To me this celeb thing has damaged the whole process. I'll admit that previous to all of this if I heard that someone had been taken to court on molestation charges I automatically thought , "guilty" - quite wrongly obviously with the presumption of innocence, but that's where my thoughts automatically went. Now with all of these celeb cases where it seems that the CPS just keep going to get the outcome they want, (seemingly regardless of guilt), my first thought is, "who's getting fitted up now"?

'I just want to take a short break from the posting for a moment to tell you about something which is very, very important to me. Recently there has been a lot in Pistonheads about the CPS and I really wanted to put the record straight at this point.

'I think you, ought to know first. One point I wish to make clear is that I have the greatest admiration for what the CPS has stood for - but nothing stays the same. Changes are being made to it which go against it's and I cannot agree with them.'

Didn't he make some comment about Charlotte Church now being 'legal' too?

And didn't she have the private lives of her family intruded into too, which seems topical given the Brooks and Coulson trial.

As mentioned previously, I consider these cases to be little more than a "popularity contest" held in front of a jury. Madness.

Without a further prosecution the "no verdict victims" could always sue for civil damages with the advantage of a lower burden of proof - "balance of probability" as opposed to "beyond reasonable doubt".

You mean 'standard' of proof, rather than burden.

And if people have committed criminal acts the proper place to deal with them is the criminal courts. If financial penalty from civil courts is 'justice', then the rich can afford to be far more criminal than the poor.

Better not tell these folks,

"O. J. Simpson was tried on two counts of murder after the deaths of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and a waiter, Ronald Lyle Goldman, in June 1994. Simpson was acquitted after a trial that lasted more than eight months.

"Later, both the Brown and Goldman families sued Simpson for damages in a civil trial that came to a total of 40 million dollars. On February 6, 1997, a jury unanimously found there was a preponderance of evidence to hold Simpson liable for damages in the wrongful death of Goldman and battery of Brown."

that st was about fame. If O.J. wasn't famous he'd be in jail right now. If O.J. drove a bus, he wouldn't even be O.J. He'd be Orenthal the bus driving murderer
