It's very hard to tell where the truth lies. Rarely in newspapers or court rooms IMHO. The evidence in many recent cases where celebs were acquitted of sexual assaults sounded extremely credible on the face of it - yet the jury effectively found they didn't believe it. Does that just mean that the accusers were lying munters with an eye to some cash? Hard to imagine they'd go so far just for that - yet as the Shannon Matthews case (amongst others), showed, there are people who will attempt extremely stupid and ill-thought out stuff for money.

You seem to assume that because the victims are women they are liars.

You can always meet him in the flesh if you want to have your day? Every Saturday morning at Cafe Uno in Baker St., Weybridge. He holds court there, though his wife no longer accompanies him there anymore.I was an IPSE Consultative Council Member, until the BoD abolished it. I am not an IPSE Member, since they have no longer have any relevance to me, as an IT Contractor. Read my lips...I recommend QDOS for ALL your Insurance requirements (Contact me for a referral code).Comment

I don't think he'll be doing any Chokey for a while? His arrogance will see him there on the weekend, I bet?

The only reason he wasn't sentenced today is because the Judge needs confirmation as to what the appropriate sentence was at the time of the attacks (remember Stuart Hall's sentence was doubled after sentencing).
I will be very surprised if he doesn't get 24-30 months come Friday...merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment
