That’s quite gaslighting don’t you think? As if I don’t because I object to people policing other people on this thread?

If you really think that the crown court case will collapse because of a thread on tattle, report it to admin.
Fully agreed. Shaming people because of a tattle thread that alot of the same posters have been involved in themselves is quite extreme. There is speculation ALL over the internet, but we are the ones who are going to single handedly take an entire crown court case down? If people are so seriously concerned then report it and stop engaging in it, don't just stay making people feel like Sarah's murderer will run free because they were a little curious about facts that have been publicly released on a wide scale (like no doubt most of the rest of the population on social media).

I’m a woman. These particular rules apply to protect us all. If you were ever charged with a crime. You’d presumably want a fair trial? And if god forbid you were the family member of someone who had been murdered, wouldn’t you want to know that there was the best chance of the perpetrator being found guilty? I’m not trying to lecture anyone btw but just wanted people to know that you can get in trouble for posting certain things.
I haven’t posted anything that could get me in to trouble. Any comment on someone implying that I don’t want justice because I resent people policing others on this thread?
One of the rules of tattle is that you don’t do that.

Today I learned my dad is a psychopath
And mine. As well as multiple other men in my life🙄😅
And you won’t believe it but that could have been seen as unfair trial because prior convictions shouldn’t be discussed by the press really as they could tarnish the character of the alleged
Someone linked a whole article on this and it discusses a few cases
The irony of this is that it’s seen as perfectly fine to drag up the previous partners of victims of sexual assault and whether victims were considered ‘promiscuous’ or not in court.

I talked about this with my mum and was disheartened when she said ”why would anyone walk alone at night? Why not keep yourself safe” I very calmly explained that women shouldn’t have to be chaperoned everywhere to be safe, and that it’s not always possible to get transport somewhere. That even a woman walking 10 minutes from the bus stop to her home is at risk of this happening. Oh and also the fact that the large majority of women have done what Sarah did or very similar at some point in their lives, but we were just lucky nothing so terrible happened to us. But hours later I’m fuming. It’s tit that my own mum has this mentality. I’ll be doing better by my daughters.

I assume that we won't read many details in the press until the trial has been concluded and a verdict been reached.
I would imagine that then details of what had been said in court will be published in the press.

I kind of feel like I want to know what happened. Otherwise I am thinking up wild scenarios in my head - if I want to or not, catastrophic thinking - and knowledge gives a kind of closure
Usually things like this have a lot of media, then go quiet until the case is actually seen I think. So it’ll all die down until probably next year. Hopefully they keep an eye on him and he makes it to the trial

Hi all, please report any posts you think could affect a court case and we'll deal with it and rules that apply to publications and social media.

Please don't police a thread, let us know via a report

Thanks

The law applies to everyone. It's so Sarah's family can get justice. Don't you want that?
Why are the people insisting this thread is removed ones who have made numerous comments themselves.

People are just chatting, sharing their own experiences the same way they wouldn’t amongst friends. If we were the mans wife or involved in the case it would be a different matter. We are commenting on a news article. If that wasn’t allowed then the news wouldn’t be allowed to report on it.

I'm wondering how it's breaking the law when there's thousands of posts online and on world news sites (including from the German and English police ) accusing the German Christian Bruckner of murdering Maddie McCann with no evidence what so ever .

I've yet to see a single person comment on this case who hasn't made some reference to presumed guilt. The thing is none of us had even heard of this individual until the media heavily reported on his arrest for kidnap and murder, so it's not like people have gone out of their way to accuse a fully unassociated innocent, ofcourse people are going to believe that means (especially in this instance where the police wouldn't affect their reputation accusing one of their own unjustly) that is all but set in stone. It would take them eternity to charge every single person commenting on socials for contempt.

I'm personally not of the opinion that the thread should be removed because speculation is just that
However, people should be more aware of their wording and the information they share/how they share it 🤷‍♀️
I have been very neutral on this thread, I just object to people trying to shame and control others. It should be reported and not a pile on.

That was all.

Yup, I mentioned it before but cross-examination rules in grape cases were changed by a bunch of white men. Rules which were meant to protect women obviously. They may have since been modified and what not, but even if we look at our Parliament now most of the people making legislation and voting on it are men.
I don't think something like that would slip through unnoticed, and people would be angry, but it's still mostly white and well-educated men making those rules and in a way they have every right to make those rules as long as they're not doing something outside of their powers

I only thought it was if there's an anonymity order in place ,like those two cretins that murdered James Bulger they can swoop you for that if you blow their cover on SM etc, or the likes of sharing private info about the suspect or their families.

From what I've read on the GOV website the only thing that stood out as potentially being relevant on this thread is people commenting on his guilt when not technically proven, but like I say, the comments of people doing so across all platforms are in their millions. How would the court possibly tackle that as a significant form of contempt when the police themselves have arrested him for murder since the get go? We've been told across hundreds of platforms from day one that he was responsible.

I know this is not going to be a popular opinion anywhere, but they need access to mental health services. As many have pointed out, sometimes this is the cycle of abuse and being unable to break it, in which case therapy may help. I would NEVER excuse anyone for what they've done based on their history and past, but there must also be people who know they have these impulses and want to get rid of them but either don't have access or have shame in talking about it.
An excuse for murder is not having mental issues! There can never be an excuse for a crime like that!
My ex cracked my head open, kicked me and strangled me - he blamed it on his mental health! But he was and still is a domestic abuser! Because of this I had mental health issues but never have I wanted to harm anyone! Some people are just pure evil and there is no excuse for it!
