More than likely he will get the same verdict as she does, so not really sure he's played that much of a blinder. What is public opinion worth? As soon as the trial ends and reporting restrictions are lifted the media will start printing stories about his past convictions and he'll lose it anyway.

Just had a heart palpitation when I got a notification that there was a new podcast episode. But it's just a chat with a court reporter

I think all he’s done differently to her is listen at the last minute to his lawyer who presumably was begging him not to take the stand, the same as I imagine CM’s was begging her only she didn’t listen.

there‘s not always a relationship between acquittals and innocence. Or sentences and guilt. Although possibly Mr Femi Ola’s talent is persuading clients deep in the to stfu.

I thought they'd be guilty on some counts but possibly not on others? I am not a legal person however

A) This jury seems like a shower of fucking idiots yet again.

B) I can't believe this shit is still ongoing. I had forgotten about it!

C) I wasn't offered any counselling after being a juror and it haunts me to this day. There's a normal/everyday activity that I absolutely cannot do after hearing what happened to the victim in our case.

This poster is talking about Mark Gordon, Victoria's father. He served twenty years in an American prison for a violent rape. When he was arrested, he had an injury to his foot, he rolled around in agony and refused to answer any questions about the baby's welfare. He's refused to give testiomy in the trial and instead left his wife to do all the talking.

MG was sentenced at 15 years old to 20 years in prison, in Florida.

Following that sentence, he was deported back to the UK in 2010.

He was born in the midlands and moved to the US with his mother when he was a child.

Details here but TW for graphic sexual assault.

I think I missed that he had been convicted of two crimes in the US.

How have we not been calling him Shovelly Joe?
