Helena - I see your facial enhancements are going terribly, terribly well. Pwicey will be jealous of you!That's what I thought too! I wouldn't put it past them, even though a trial can still go ahead without cooperation they would try and
derail it by claiming they can't testify. They would try anything.....
Just seen this. From the CPS.....seems assault cases spouses can be compelled to testify, others cases ( theft? Coercive control they can't)?
''
The prosecution can only compel a spouse or civil partner to give evidence for the prosecution in cases which involve:
So maybe they are thinking by getting married they could thrown a spanner in the works for at least some of the charges?
- An allegation of an assault on, or injury or a threat of injury to the spouse or civil partner;
- An allegation of an assault on, or injury or a threat of injury to a person who was at the material time under the age of sixteen years;
- An alleged sexual offence against a victim who was at the material time under the age of sixteen years; or
- Attempting, conspiring or aiding and abetting, counselling and procuring to commit the offences in the categories above."
