Hi,
The Judges said they have looked at all avenues.
Hmmm
Not so sure, they have only focused on the new avenues and the ones in my view that the CPS went with. The CPS have the map, the world is their way or the highway.
Anything said down the Leesthma Avenue, was a no entry, the same with the Luthert Drive, or Anslow Gardens, or Morris Crescent (they were the names of ‘our experts’). We never got to Plunkett Parade or others.
The little alleyways the lady who the CPS hid away as she was too inexperienced…won’t use her as the statement changed if I remember rightly? The odd things said by certain people, the lack of work done to look at the truth the whole truth and nothing like the truth…dark alleyways not looked into.
But all this work by the CPS to drive the jury to distraction, I nodded off in the appeal at one point, I don’t know how they listened it did for me within a very short period of time! Its not a drive they have taken them on, but a walk…up the garden path!
The problem looking back (love hindsight - would like it earlier) is that the trial and the appeal is only down to experts again. NO REAL EVIDENCE.
Why oh why, is it me or aren’t they supposed to have evidence, supported by experts…and NOT EXPERTS - SUPPORTED BY EXPERTS (sorry to shout its the stupid horns from the World Cup the whodoblowailers or whatever they are).
The messages of support that are still coming in from you are very much appreciated. From America to Australia, from Hackney to Hull.
I hear that in Canada they have allowed these cases to roll again, after the Goudge enquiry raised soooo many issues. What a bloody shame, what are you thinking? We let the horse bolt before, and we will do it again, maybe they have money riding on the horse?
It really is like you can’t let people see your wrong, and whats the issue with Legal and Medical, you seem quite cosy at times?
The other problem I have with the appeal is how one Judge slated Stoodley in the Ben Butler appeal, the CPS had brought Stoodley along to ours (they must get a good deal on experts in bulk? Anyway Stoodley was a big influence on the trial and on the bench for the appeal (footie bench not court bench)! But his evidence seemingly is good in ours but in Bens it was not ( the slating of Stoodley the best thing I have seen a Judge do in ages, by attacking him).
I am not sure I care for the why anymore, its becoming clear to win you have to get as dirty as them and take out their key players, like other nations do to Englands footballers, foul Beckham, Rooney and get them red carded when they respond! So whatever it takes now…
Ben Butler sounds very keen to fight on - which is great, you can win but there are still people who need sorting out and wrongs to be righted. Good luck to him and all those involved.
Meanwhile, we will speed along the highway, they took us to hell, but it wasn’t sooo bad we got through it and now we are heading to the toll booths, someone has to pay and it won’t be us anymore…
England expects … justice to be fair, not heavily out gunning, and to be based on facts and not fiction. Or does it? Com’on England!
