@watercowology Cowardly revisionism has been Pitchfork's modus operandi for years now.

@ShockedNotShock @franticworry @Joanna__Hardy A judge, jury, and 99% of the legal profession (myself included) strongly disagree with you.

[Versa @MusicVersa]

@ShockedNotShock @franticworry @Joanna__Hardy That is not what's going on here.
The statements are tendered as evidence that she told people she was assaulted immediately after the assault, not as evidence of the assault itself. That is not hearsay.

There is a reason this evidence was accepted at trial.

[Versa @MusicVersa]

@marcelojoneston @CathyYoung63 Comparing the sentencing to usual sentencing is a better argument for what?

[Versa @MusicVersa]

@SarcasticCupcak @ExWhiteRabbit @mtracey @benryanwriter It is shocking that you can be so confidently, aggressively, stupidly wrong about so many different things.

[Versa @MusicVersa]

@ShockedNotShock @franticworry @Joanna__Hardy hearsay if both the person who made the statement and the person who received the statement can attest to it.

[Versa @MusicVersa]

@ShockedNotShock @franticworry @Joanna__Hardy Hearsay is an out of court statement tendered for the truth of its contents. An out of court statement tendered for another purpose (for example, to establish that she told people immediately after the alleged event that she had been assaulted) is not hearsay. It's also not...

@SarcasticCupcak @ExWhiteRabbit @mtracey @benryanwriter UK & US have an extradition treaty for criminal matters, and treaty & common law precedent for enforcing civil penalties between countries. If Mr. Tracy breaks criminal law protecting victims, he can be extradited. If he incurs civil liability, monetary judgment can be enforced.

[Versa @MusicVersa]

@mtracey What the fuck is wrong with you.

[Versa @MusicVersa]

@franticworry @Joanna__Hardy The out-of-court statements that were admitted were contemporaneous text messages between the victim and friends and family, they were confirmed as genuine by the victim, & they were introduced as evidence the statements were made, not for the truth of their contents. Not hearsay

@ManOfFineTaste @johnmilbank3 So you're having consensual sex with a woman and she asks if she can stick a dildo up your ass and you say "no" and she proceeds to do it anyway and refuses to stop when you ask her to. You're totally cool with this?

[Versa @MusicVersa]

@Steve_in_TO @johnmilbank3 They don't require an extraordinary level of consent. They just require consent.

[Versa @MusicVersa]

@marcelojoneston @CathyYoung63 for what?

[Versa @MusicVersa]

@TristinHopper I take this to imply that our concert last month was top-tier.

[Versa @MusicVersa]

@ReadySetGame87 @MallardDuck13 @spencedyor You can drive a used car. I pay $80 a month for insurance because I have a clean record and a 12-year-old car.

He's paying $550, I'm paying $160 for car+internet. Pretty sure these are bullshit numebrs though. He's "paying" more for utilities in a rental than I do for my house.

[Versa @MusicVersa]

@MallardDuck13 @spencedyor Or, don't spend $300 on insurance & $250 on car insurance when you make >$20 an hour. Get a $80 internet plan and take the bus.

Also in what world is a single person living in a 1bdrm apartment paying $315/month for power & water? I own a house and that's what I pay per quarter.

[Versa @MusicVersa]

@TheAnnaGat I'm married an on the other side of the continent but this still sounds delightful.

[Versa @MusicVersa]

@SarcasticCupcak @ArthurCDent @thebadstats Canada is bad and a "shithole" because we have muslim rape gangs and don't take sexual assault seriously. Except we nothing of the sort has happened here, and have roughly half the rate of sexual assaults that the USA does.

Do you have no sense of embarrassment?

[Versa @MusicVersa]

@SarcasticCupcak @ArthurCDent @thebadstats You know that no one in this thread lives in the UK, right?
