If I clocked you, and you then went to the Cops to complain about my assault......when you get in the witness box and swear that I clocked you, will you then tell the Judge that there is no proof that I clocked you...ie......he can just forget you ever sat in the box and gave evidence?

Oh...so you have just been to the Bank...withdrawn $1000.00 in cash.  You leave the Bank.  I put a gun at your head and demand you hand me the money.  You do.  No-one saw me there, no-one saw the robbery other than you.

I leave, and then I hide the money and it's never found.

Did I rob you?

Oi Gweggy/Bwian

1. Where's your Tsk tsk ??

2. Read back moron! YOU mentioned it (for some stupid reason). I immediately jumped on that remark to inform you that it's such a basic and regarded fact that it doesn't need to be mentioned (over and over again).

3. You must seriously be drunk yourself right now if you don't get the issue that's bugging everyone here on OzPol AND there with the Jury ie lack of evidence. ALL we have is this : DOUBT.

4. The fact that the jury is taking so long to deliver its verdict indicates better chances for the defendant. Not Brittany!

Note : IRRESPECTIVE of the outcome I trust that we will ALL be mature enough to accept the verdict gracefully and to move on as forum members.

If anything we would do well to be mindful of this reality : these court proceedings have been one of the most stressful and intimidating events in someone's life. Thank God it wasn't yours or mine.

Cheers.

👆 He's in the wrong topic. And wrong forum. And he's clearly under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

(This apparently happens if you've been posting across 4 or more forums non stop for 20 years).

Here's the thing:

Zero physical evidence.
No DNA. Zero, zip, nada.

The defendant is not claiming that he had sex with the other party and that she was willing but then said stop.

The defendant is claiming there was no sex at all.

I'm going on what I have been able to gather from the case reports in the media.

So, whether I think there was a rape or not has no bearing on the point I am making which is:

Without any physical evidence at all of any sexual activity and no independent witness as to what may have or may not have taken place, the jury MUST have some level of reasonable doubt.

After 4 days + they can't reach a unanimous finding.

Really?

Show me a post where I've done that.  Just one will do.

I've not taken anyone's side in this case, and you know it.

You're just upset because I caught you out using drunkenness as an excuse for rape.

Tsk tsk

Sleep (whatever nasty stuff you've taken) off ok Groggy/Bwian.

Come back later.

Tsk Tsk

Getting back to the topic ....I did post something over at Freediver's PA forum about taking steps to be safe.

Note when I refer to safety I mean for both males AND females. ie it keeps everyone safe from being attacked or accused. BRB.

I posted this last week over at Freediver's PA forum.


What do you honestly think about the case?

1. I have no idea re whether the guy is guilty based on what the media has revealed.

2. I think that there will be NO CONVICTION based on THE EVIDENCE presented by the Prosecution AND the presumption of innocence until PROVEN GUILTY which defines our legal system.

3. My honest/deep seated personal impression of the guy? I don't like him. At all! He reminds me of the dhead manager who attacked me back when I was 21 at a work function. I was not intoxicated and no rape occurred. But I was assaulted. The 42 yr old intoxicated married manager forced his hands and tongue all over my face and breasts. Unlike Brittany, I wore a bra, undies and corset and unlike Brittany I was not drunk. So I was in full control of my senses and fought my way out of that situation. What I can't get over is this : It's taken me some 30 years to talk about what happened to me (and that's only online and due to this highly publicised case).

4. My honest/deep seated personal impression of the girl? I do like her a bit more. But I don't trust her evidence which is based on what she allegedly REMEMBERS given she was so terribly intoxicated that she couldn't even move during the alleged rape event.

5. I honestly think that IF any sexual activity occurred at all ... then there should be evidence of it. Somewhere. It hasn't come to light though. For all I know ... this could well be a case of Brittany wanting to be with the guy but not getting the response she wanted. On the other hand ... perhaps the person Brittany thought was having sex with her may have been the security guard who covered her OR the alleged event may have even been a very convincing dream whilst totally and utterly pissed as a parrot.

My Conclusions :

1. Where possible do not attend work functions alone. Bring your partner or brother or someone you trust etc. If that's not possible then ARRANGE for that someone you trust to pick you up at a certain time. Preferably after an hour or 2. Work related events go stupid after that.

2. Drink nothing OR 1 glass ( if you feel you need to in order to be part of THE TEAM).

3. If you are a woman and you feel you need to attend a work related function then FFS wear a bra, undies AND corset. Not only will these undergarments make you look great... they actually do keep you safe too. It will take someone longer to attack you and that buys you time to escape OR in the worst case scenario of rape ... these items will provide EVIDENCE.

4. Always remember that you can inform any potential offender that you have HIV or Covid19. It may help. I don't know. If this doesn't help then FFS scratch the offender as it will leave EVIDENCE of scratch marks on HIM AND his DNA in your fingernails.

5. We all have iPhones now. USE THIS incredible device ASAP and let everyone you know about what's happened to you. And that includes 000.
