zahidf Posted August 12, 2023 Report Share Posted August 12, 2023 7 minutes ago, steviewevie said: ok...but the courts still did not find them guilty. Maybe it's all dodge, but if we just start accusing people of rape or whatever because we know better and there's this stuff on the internet that shows otherwise, then it's going to be vigilante bedlam, especially going forward with AI etc. The courts didn't make any decision on greenwood. Saying that is a lie I'm afraid. The victim stopped co-operation with the prosecution. You can make assumptions why (a massive payoff is one such assumption). are you saying the audio is fake? Why?

I assume BTW greenwood would have immediately put evidence out saying it was fake if it was. I know your whole shtick is seeing both sides, but doesn't really work when one side is shown to be a violent rapist by audio evidence.

It's hardly a ronaldo situation. How would the pay off work? They live together and have a baby. Here's a million quid to drop the charges, oh I'm just going to give the baby his bottle to get him to sleep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cos they've got a baby they might have wanted the agro to go away.its about more than just those two. Wouldn't be great for the kid if his dad had a conviction for raping his mum .

Likewise why would he get back with someone who's accused him of rape. Like I've said its a very weird relationship. What I find strange is people are up in arms about it all, except the most important people in the situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me there are two different discussions here. When talking about guilt from a legal perspective it is right that he is not in jail as there has been no criminal conviction. I think when talking about Mendy Zahidf seems to support a presumption of guilt which I feel would be a dangerous route to go down from a legal perspective. Then there is a conversation if the words/actions put him into disrepute that he shouldn’t play for the club. My view is the club supporting him is justifying violence against women and sexual assault so this should disqualify, plenty of clubs worldwide who wouldn’t care how you treat a woman where he can go.

You know that a lot of abused women go back to their abusers and even have kids with them? Thats the least surprising thing about this whole situation to me. People are up in arms because they know someone has gotten away with being a rapist and is about to be put into one of the biggest football teams in the world.

The mendy thing, having read the facts about the case, he had very good lawyers who used the sexual history of a couple of his accusers to sow doubt I'm the juries mind. The fact City got rid asap shows what's going on there really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no doubt many rich people get away with stuff, but moving to a presumption of guilt also has its flaws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
