Just heard that William Roache has been cleared of all charges
Will this clear his name or will there still be a culture of 'No smoke without fire'
I have mixed feelings about these prosecutions, alleged victims should be able to bring it to court but also people should be seen as not guilty when and if they are found not guilty
Cynical old me just sees this as an attempt to make a bit of money from the press etc
Edit
The crying in the title is because he is as hammy as a load of piggy wiggys ;D

That is good news!
I have a horrible feeling that certain people have jumped on the Saville band wagon and have seen an opportunity of making money/claiming fame by accusing well known public figures of despicable acts decades after they apparently happened.
Just glad to see good old Bill cleared. Corrie must have him back! :y :y :y

Back? He was never on my telly in the first place !

Agree with that one :y :y

Now in my opinion the money seeking bitches who falsely accused him should be named, shamed and be made to pay the costs of the case.
DLT next

Indeed for the sake of transparency they need to be investigated. When a person is found not guilty what becomes of the accuser? were they lying or were they just mistaken? Do they get charged with wasting police time? I know that they do not bring the prosecution, that is down to the CPS or PF up North but their untruths started the whole ball rolling

Agreed.
I do not understand this no names for legal reasons, I can understand it in the case of children but I think everybody should have the right to face their accuser and if proven not guilty then there should be no concealing of either parties identity

Not a lot sadly :(
With paedophilia and rape being the 2 most vile crimes imaginable imo, if guilty then they should be drawn and quartered >:( >:(
But if it is proven beyond doubt that the accuser lied for money / personal gain then he / she should be hung out to dry >:(

So the jury of 12 decided :-
1. All the women were liars
OR
2 Not enough evidence to find him guilty

Beyond a reasonable doubt is what is required to get a not guilty verdict
I do not agree with every not guilty verdict but that is the standard of proof we are tried to.
I know a lot of faith is placed in 'tried by a jury of your peers' and sometimes they can get it wrong
It is not beyond the realms of possibility that all the accusers were lying or indeed that not enough evidence was provided to prove guilt
I wonder what he would have got up here?
Not proven is a bad verdict (liked by some) as it is interpreted as you done it but we can't prove it
Again if the evidence was strong enough then a guilty verdict should be given, I personally do not like the not proven verdict
