Kevin Webster [Is Not] A Peadophile

[lawrawrrr]

Never once thought he would be convicted.



I'm confused, which side are you supporting exactly?

Supporting a side? You can't really "support a side" in a court case. It's a matter of evidence and fact, not a petty debate.

In the eyes of the law, he did not commit those crimes and who am I to say otherwise? I was expressing disbelief that the girl in question could fabricate such a story and ruin someone's life the way she has. The was the judge acted and the things he said also led me to believe that the case was pretty much wrapped up, that he had done it, which is why I was shocked.

Seeing as he has cleared his name, that's why I said good for him. I'm just expressing scepticism after what details I read of the case led me to believe he would be charged with it almost definitely.

I stayed on the fence, not wanting to pass any judgement, whereas my fiancée said he was innocent, turns out she was right Hopefully he'll appear back on our screens very soon

I'm with the others who were on the fence, these days a lot of people (a lot on twitter) like to play judge and jury without knowing any facts about a given situation.

good on him.

[e5]

This should have all been kept quiet until he was proven guilty, and when he wasn't nothing said, because it ruins his life as people out there will still think he is, an innocent man made out to be something he isn't isn't right.

[Yawn]

wat happens to the person who made the accusations?? he was suicidal.....

Sadly, some people do cry rape when it's not true which makes it difficult for those who genuinely have been raped. There are a number of reasons why someone would lie about it: attention-seeking or attention-deflecting (looks like the former in this case), sympathy, jealousy, rejection etc. Despite that, I do think the police need to believe the victim rather than the defendant and let the jury decide because otherwise you get into some really horrible anti-victim terrority that someone who really was raped would find uncomfortable and they'd be placed under enormous pressure.

I actually have no clue what this case is about, never heard of it ;O


But yeah, it's good that his name has been cleared and hopefully the court hasn't made a mistake etc :3

[Absently]

what i was told today is that it was something about an ongoing fued with the family and they didn't really like him, so it seems that they've basically told her to say all this (not sure if that's true or not)

he's also already in talks with coronation street to be back on our screens. poor guy though, i can imagine it's not going to be plain sailing from now on for him.

[Ardemax]

Unfortunately in our society some people will class everyone on trial as "guilty", no matter what the eventual verdict.

Let's just hope he can get his life back on track.

Good for him, it'll be good to see him back on screen!
