These statistics are useless. In the 6 months before her death? Considering the fact that she was arrested, charged and was facing trial for assault by beating, it would've been sick if the articles were positive.
What were the articles like in the 6 months before she was arrested? That would have been relevant.

Was Nicola Maclean really a close friend of Caroline’s , she’s all over the media like a rash but I can’t find any photos of them together.

Had a few convos through the DM function on instagram by the sounds of it and now classifying herself as a close friend.

Nicola McClean, Stephanie Davis et al really don’t strike me as being the sort of women CF would have wished to have associated with her. Because let’s be honest - they’re vile pond life.

I’ve been lurking & reading all the posts here because since she passed, I’ve become very interested in Caroline where previously I didn’t really know the first thing about her life (Only that she had many boyfriends).

It seems Caroline was something of an enigma. One on hand she seemed pretty laidback and ‘one of the lads’ but then this arrest happened. Someone like me (with severe anxiety) would look at Caroline’s life and feel she was smashing it: living in London surrounded by good friends, a great job, money, always going here there and everywhere. Yet at the same time she was not well. I think even though she didn’t mind that her love life was publically splashed all over the papers she was fiercely private and protective about her mental health and was too proud to ever show she struggled. This thing that happened in December tore the lid off and took away her pride a lot. She did live TV for years while going through her breakdown and even spoke of a panic attack before air on X Factor. If that were me I just could not cope, I’d have to get away from the pressures. But she obviously had a strength and like someone said on here ‘some folk with depression light up in front of a camera, it’s when the camera is off the trouble begins’. I was reading that her PT wrote that After her breakup with Andrew in Jan 2019 she was doing 5 PT sessions per week, calling her PT the one constant in her life, but she also had a rep for being somewhat of a party girl so it will be interesting to see the Tox report just because it will tell us a lot.

PS: I’ve been reading this thread and others with mental health struggles who have bravely spoken have made me feel less alone. I saw a few who have posted that they have BPD. I follow a YouTube called ‘Mari Fitness’ who is the biggest inspiration, she opened up about her BPD and she does a lot of work to feel better and manage her symptoms. I thought I’d recommend her because it’s rare to see an influencer be so open and honest

Hello Tattle peeps,

I’m a new poster here, have been following these threads on Caroline with interest. What a tragic turn of events.

This newspiece has just flashed up on my phone - granted it’s not a DV case, but the sentencing, considering he attacked 4 people without provocation, seems pretty lenient (4 charges of assault by beating, resulting in a 12-month community order and 100-hours of unpaid work). Wasn’t this the same crime that Caroline was charged with? Makes you wonder what the outcome would’ve been, had she been found guilty, although given that hers was a high-profile DV case, they may have made more of an example of her?

I was also surprised at Katie Price saying Caroline had messaged about meeting up soon. I didn’t know they were friends?!
 
And again, they don't make examples of people. It doesn't matter who you are, the sentencing guidelines are the same for everyone.

If found guilty of this crime, the sentencing begins at a non custodial point and then is adjusted for mitigating and/or aggravating features. For example, if she had previous convictions, the sentence is increased. If she has no previous convictions it could be decreased. There are many different things that the judge would look at in order to decide on a sentence, the maximum being 6 months.

probably not. Nicola Maclean is beyond annoying and she’s as thick as shit. I dunno how or why she’s got a recurring spot on the JV panel, she’s an idiot.

How lovely, you might regret you said it! Thank you so much, it's very appreciated xxx
This is an interesting article however, there’s a difference between Caroline Flack & the poor chap who tragically took his own life because he felt he would be ‘outed’ by his court case. Caroline Flack appears to have been more concerned with a loss of status than any shame, regret or remorse for her behaviour. I would also say that there are some so-called offences that haven’t kept pace with society that perhaps shouldn’t be brought to court and others like DV that need more resource to tackle.

I’m well aware of the CPS’ sentencing guidelines, mitigating factors, previous etc, but that doesn’t stop individual magistrates and judges applying those guidelines with some degree of variance.

A family friend of mine was murdered some time back and the trial will be going to court soon. There’s a reason that the prosecution and the police managing the case have told the victim’s family about the various judges sitting at the court, where the trial will be held and couched it in terms of how “hardline” some of them are, because they do have a degree of discretion in how they apply sentencing guidelines. Certain judges do gain reputations for being tougher in their sentencing, when people begin to compare like-for-like cases. It’s not as clearcut as many would like to think.

I listened to a woman who was going to take her life, and she said you are out of your rational mind. You act outside of your control and in an instant switch you can impulsively act.
Very well put.

No offence but these people like Steph Davis, Kerry Katona etc are projecting their own experience onto Caroline’s and are a bit too emotionally invested
It’s because they themselves are not emotionally stable. Someone really needs to shut Steph Davis up, she’s an absolute fruit loop who battered her boyfriend and is now pretending she knew Caroline Flack to sell her new single. This is the biggest fucking joke ever.

Just want to offer an alternative view. Not sure if it’s allowed on this platform

Right, well as your original post was you wondering the outcome of her trial if she were found guilty I was saying it would be something between non custodial and 6 months imprisonment

Of course the way judges apply the features will vary person to person, they're only human.

Wishing you all the best for the trial.

I don’t think it’s fair to say she was too proud to ever say she struggled. She was open about her depression, did interviews about it and posted Instagram posts referring to it

Which is why I was asking “Makes you wonder what the outcome would’ve been, had she been found guilty, although given that hers was a high-profile DV case, they may have made more of an example of her?”

Sadly, we’ll never know whether the press attention would have impacted the outcome (I would hope not), but I would hope that whatever happened, she could have at some point retrieved her health, career and life, back to where she wanted it to be.

And thanks

From what I read on here, I understood that a family member found her suspended. When the police arrived, she was on her back and they started CPR.
