Acting on her behalf, it was quite proper for them to take what she said at face value.</i><br /><br />That may be how things are done but<br />remember the duck in "Babe."<br /><br />Cow: The only way you'll find happiness is to accept that the way things are is the way things are.<br />Ferdinand: 'The way things are' stinks!<br /><br />I don't think it should be "proper" for any part of the judicial system to just accept any old flannel they are told. If a little bit of checking would reveal who was probably telling porkies and who was probably telling the truth, then the defence bloody well should check up the "veracity".<br /><br />The point of the legal systems should be to establish guilt and innocence but beyond everything else, truth. It is not to mindlessly comply with a set of rules, no matter how established or lucrative.Nick Palmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05360924308743466075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9095270985170721876.post-10692525389593170742010-02-04T16:16:41.682+00:002010-02-04T16:16:41.682+00:00Tony.
No suprises that the "accredited"...Tony.<br /><br />No suprises that the "accredited" media have not picked up on any of this.<br /><br />So if I have read this correctly, and concede that I very well might not have, it would appear to me that the proecution lawyer, ex 7 Bedford Row and now Solictor General Howard Sharp is either completey incompedent, or was there just to play his part in what was an attempt of a cover-up of Corporate Manslaughter.<br /><br />Like I said, I could have this all wrong but that is how it reads to me.voiceforchildrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16825129148579102037noreply@blogger.com
