sexual assault

[Faith]

Fair enough, and that is all very true, but regardless, it shouldn't make one want to go out and commit the crimes as they 'may as well' seeing as they'd get a lesser sentence.

Maybe I am being overly sensitive but one has to have tact in a community such as this...

Thanks for your input Izzy, and I am sure that you are right.
We shall get back to topic.

It's not how I read it, but maybe it's the Scottish sarcasm that only we get. It's a knock at the system and soft sentencing for other crimes not the one of being FA, or thats how I read it.

Nail, head, hit...

Maybe I didn't put it across correctly...

The 'Guilty' are treated better than those that are 'Not Guilty'... Basically what I was saying...

You can actually COMMIT a crime and get a lesser sentence than if you find yourself falsely accused.......

[lawlessone2009]

I think the point he was making was that the punishment starts the minute you are FA, the repercussions can be bad when word leaks out, whereas if you have actually commited a crime, the punishment can be less or certainly less life changing. Thats how I read it, but I'm sure he will be back on to make it clear.

Oops... This is in the area too.

I'm pants at explaining myself!!!

Communicate communicate communicate is my mantra... I've failed!

Miles off......

It was me.... Bad explanation...

You guys are pretty sensitive just now. A million posters pulling up a little line that was badly put by me. My head is jumbled, do not take Propananol! It makes you worse, well me anyway!

[RFLH]

having read the thread now - I understood what you meant, I think there has been a little too much leaping on the poster.

Maybe I understod because my head is jumbled too!

That's not how I read it either - best to commit no crime at all (let alone think about it) but then there are times we all type out something that doesn't reflect exactly what we are trying to say....

I've known guys say that when they get out they will shoot their lying accuser then "at least I'll be in prison for something I've done". That might be said off the cuff but could be construed as a serious threat.

On a site which deals with painful subjects and people being affected by trauma, it really shouldn't surprise you that members are sensitive.

I know one of them,I look at him everyday in the mirror

[Faith]

Every day?? How vain!!

[Boys don't cry]

I should have written :I "cross" him everyday.

Not even "meet" because the length of time would be too long.

I'm gonna stick my spade back in the shed... The hole I've dug is deep enough already...

Let's return to topic...

I think it's scaring off the punters.

,

Just back from solicitors , but he still didnt have the transcript from the police, he said he wasnt worried about the case so i shouldnt be worried. I think i would be more confident if he had the transcript though. He did say that the guy who had accused me said i hit him and held a knife to his throat, which i was shocked at but after leaving i think he must have got it the wrong way round, because thats what had happened to me. He is hoping the PF will drop the case but if they procede to trial he is sure i will be found NG , will keep you all informed

I wish you all the best Mike and thanks for the info.
