Don’t think you’d be any good on a jury. You ever seen a film called 12 angry men ?

Remember the L-Train!

I think if 2.7% reported cases of rape get convictions, we might have a problem? Dont you?

Either you think that 97.3% of rapists are getting away with it, or 97.3% of victims are liars.

People like Sullivan and Brand deserve whatever comes to them

OTT a little. But is this justice?

I don’t think so.

If found guilty, then yes they do,

It isn't. I don't care how old and frail they are. If guilty they should receive a normal prison sentence

Reading this it would be astonishing if the allegations aren't true:

But they won't be found guilty, that's the whole point. The justice system is broken because despite the massive evidence, you cannot convict someone based on the balance of probability. We all know what Sullivan, Brand, Greenwood etc did and they'll still get off.

Going off the bits I've read this morning, and I haven't seen the programme, I don't see him being charged with anything.

Morally wrong, not a good guy, sex pest etc. I'm sure this sort of thing, to varying degrees of course was fairly common from men in power, particularly that industry. Even in my time of working, last 20 years there has been a massive shift.

I heard on the radio that Sullivan is threatening to sue for slander/libel etc. Apparently he will have to prove that his reputation has been damaged. Good luck with that Dave

He was banned from any contact with any of the women’s or youth teams at West Ham since 2023. Grim

Isn't that what Trump is also suing Panorama and the BBC for? Both will have a low starting point.

Tricky one, although I take a similar view, there are not many convictions for false allegations either. The consensual potential cases are extremely hard to prove either way, that would be why.

That's true, even office Managers used their power in the 80s to try and bed pretty younger girls, it was more or less accepted.
