@AnneOnimously@uhohitzbella@rachelstockkk@seanbwparker@tomhfh@danwootton Absolutely. And it does. If I tell 20 people, across a 17 years span, that you assaulted me, they are now my witnesses that you assaulted me. Juries are also instructed that no negative inferences should be drawn from inconsistencies in the accounts. Go defend that.
@bkp6908@rachelstockkk@seanbwparker@tomhfh@danwootton Not in the same way. They have to request leave to appeal and the grounds are very narrow, such as an error in law (e.g. a significant incorrect legal decision or direction by the judge) or new evidence which was not reasonably available at the trial.
@Globaldave1970@rachelstockkk@seanbwparker@tomhfh@danwootton All the evidence from friends and family came from her. Except for the nugget that she was licking his anus at the Apollo - that came from her friend. It was emphasised time and again that her issues were not solely due to Brand, but to previous severe matters she had had.
@MASH40771982@seanbwparker@MikeBenzCyber@danwootton Is that Georgina? She has been nothing short of schizophrenic with her statements in the last week. The allegations that she was offered money were made three years ago.
@rachelstockkk@seanbwparker@tomhfh@danwootton Allegations must be proven to a criminal standard, objectively. There was no evidence to meet this standard for any of the allegations. In fact, the evidence shows the accounts were unreliable. Brand did not get a fair trial, & the complainants were vastly linked via a journalist
@lizyeld Can't disagree. But that is a clear indication that her story doesn't add up. It's frightening that it wasn't explored in that courtroom. The subjective morality of it has no relevance on the objective alleged criminality of the events.
@IllisiaAdams@MichelleMaxwell@rustyrockets@douglassmackey@Meta@elonmusk If during consensual sex you end up on all fours (totally unrestrained) and suddenly it goes in an orifice where u don't want it, would you:
A) flop down/to the side/move away,
Or
B) let him carry on until he comes inside you. But you said no, stop with your head in the pillow?
@EHarowitz@rgio123@MichelleMaxwell@rustyrockets@douglassmackey@Meta@elonmusk that's how juries convict on no evidence, where it should be impossible to be sure beyond reasonable doubt that the crime was actually commited as described. He said/she said. U were not there. It is possible, however unlikely u may find it, that she is lying I.e.Reasonable doubt
@merseywoman@EHarowitz@MichelleMaxwell@rustyrockets@douglassmackey@Meta@elonmusk It won't, because in the UK you can only appeal on something the judge did legally wrong (e.g. in his directions) or because there is new evidence not reasonably available at trial. An appeal is not there to have a second crack at it. It's a very unfair system.
@EHarowitz@merseywoman@MichelleMaxwell@rustyrockets@douglassmackey@Meta@elonmusk Clearly u have neither evidence or common sense. If a member goes in an unwanted orifice during consensual sex, & u are not tied to the bed nor flattened by him on top (which she was not), u can IMMEDIATELY move/flop down/to the side & put a stop to it. U don't let him continue!
@EHarowitz@MichelleMaxwell@rustyrockets@douglassmackey@Meta@elonmusk I agree because I saw all the evidence. Several women came forward for an extremely famous man AFTER watching a TV programme AND spoke to the same journalist. The rape. She wasn't restrained. It was in the midst of consensual sex. Why didn't she flop over immediately? Or at all?
