Things have gone oddly quiet on the story of the landlord. Either this means that some parts of the press have paid him off, or they do have something on him they're threatening to reveal if he kicks up a fuss about their original articles on him.

He sued 7 papers and won, he also gave an interview on R4 the other morning though I didn't hear it as I arrived at client site before he was on.

They all settled out of court.

Interesting in crime watch tonight they say Tabak had pointed the finger at landlord about moving his car on the night of the murder. They only let the landlord go when his DNA did not match.

Plenty of murders happen every week, this one got 15 months of fame. If she was black or from Sasgurus estate we wouldnt have heard about it.

Depends on how interesting the story is and whether it's doing the rounds on twitter.

The press are really lazy........

Why not. She was brutally murdered for your 15 mins of entertainment it seems, let her have her 15 mins of fame before she's another forgotten statistic.

The landlord was on the news last night being interviewed about how the accusations affected him.

Still an odd fellow.

Though if oddness infers guilt that may explain why certain 'characters' only appear on CUK sporadically. When they get day release.

I remember that he was threatening to sue earier in the year. They've probably paid out a big whack before they got crucifed again.

Tabak got banged up for murder, hopefully I won't have to hear "The landscape architect Joanna Yates...." again.

A lot, im setting up a support group Sockies Accused Ananymous

Well, you've just blown your case - since you are anonymous, or in other words wrong words can't be traced to real life person then your case is over.

You also can't spell it seems - that is something you have in common with sasguru who isn't posting today for some reason...

What damage did it cause to you by being allegedly incorrectly labelled as a sockie?

Thats rich coming from you , a complete moron who accuses people of being sockies with NO proof.

I hope he wins, the press get to sell papers on sensationalist, intrusive and in this case untrue rubbish, it would be easy to argue that this bloke has suffered damage as a result of the stories.

Yes that would be easy, the hard part would be to argue that newspapers lied in those stories - they'd probably settle though.
