Jonatahn King, on his own site:

“I was speechless when, having proved I could not have committed 4 of the 6 offences"

So, the man implicitly admits having committed two of them, doesn't he? Enough said.

I shall follow the appeal with great interest and agree with its result, whatever it is.

..my poor sister never had the right to appeal her "offense", but..too bad, I don't believe the penal system allows the use of computer technology for their own manical pleasure...(Feodor, is that you Duralex?)

Stephanie Mastini said...

...and it's amazing that in these times family money can buy you freedom...but than again, he allegedly did more than one boy..

I don't think so. Duralex was slightly more sympathetic about JK's problems.

I'm certainly not that pompous Durex you're talking about, but I might be the boring journalist "pal" who outed Clover Vitriol the other day.

Indeed you may Feoder; welcome to the show. Please go to make-up.

It's as well to remember that in this instance King is guilty till conviction proven unreliable.

Bloody Europe. He'll be running the European Song Contest again next. Ding-dong-ding-a-ling.

No way. I'm not an extra in your cheap peep-show. I'm a devastating hurricane. And my fiery heart is not for sale. You ought to know.

Feodor "doh" - the other (more obvious conclusion to those without tunnel vision) is the correct one - that I could not prove my innocence on the other two false claims. It is hard to prove you didn't do something 25 years earlier, especially when there is no proof that you did, but one person's word is enough for the legal system.
Madame - sadly I would predict (though my crystal ball is rather cloudy) total failure in Europe as in the UK system. Once a Vile Pervert always a Vile Pervert. The truth is less important these days.

Feodor is a "devastating hurricane" who has a "fiery heart" - excellent! Very Hotspur-ish. You have just typecast yourself in this cheap peepshow. Left or right profile, ducks? Camera, lights ...

In a hypocritically hyper-sexualised totalitarian-tabloid Anglo/MOCK-Puritan US-UK of "distort don't report" for ratings-and-profit not protection, plus corrupt Compensation Induced witchunts, the 'Crimenem Exceptum' needing little or no proof results in mass miscarriages of justice ongoing with thousands of wrongful convictions and excessive sentences causing tens of thousands of families and communities made victims and extended victims of grotesque modern injustice – a vast and sickening human tragedy - nothing less than a psycho-sexual holocaust. Thankfully there is postNazi NON-Anglo/MOCK-Puritan modern-EU and ECHR !
