Where do you think I got it from?Quote:

The clamour for the public to know the names and details don't serve the best interest of the victims anyway, it can work against the process of justice. Look at that twat Tommy Robinson, he gave the lawyers defending the grooming gang a compelling reason to get the charges dropped because Tommy was outside court revealing details which shouldn't have been released until the end of the trial.
On the occasions when the allegations are false it can ruin people and is very unfair.. Matthew Kelly, Dave Jones and Cliff Richard to name a few.
If the guy is guilty then of course throw the book at him, undertake an investigation (as there would be enablers that knew/helped) and importantly get the survivors help.
I remember dave Jones first game in charge , pre season against brom with Bryan Robson in charge , our idiots were singing that dreadful packet of sweets song at Bryan Robson with dave Jones just standing there
Fecking wankers
Agree that this guy should be given a fair trial
2 charges against 1 boy nearly 40 years ago. There must be some pretty strong evidence to have got that through the CPS for him to have been charged.
I agree, you should only be named if you are guilty.
Too often innocent peoples lives have been ruined.
What about that Tory MP accused of rape Eric.Quote:

Should they be named when actually charged or not until found guilty.
Difficult one because there is the arguement that by naming them others come forward.
On the other side of the coin if the accusation is false as you say careers and reputations can be ruined (I am not of course saying that the accusations in either case are necessarily false of course).
The MP wasn't named because the (alleged) victim has a right to privacy. If he was named it wouldn't take Sherlock Holmes to deduce her identity.Quote:

a tory former minister in his 50s.Quote:

That was one of the reasons given but I am sure I saw somewhere that she was upset he hadn't been suspended.Quote:
