I'm quite happy to let almost anyone have an opinion.
So what would have constituted a fair trial for these people?
And are you saying that they should not be prosecuted now even though that there is evidence to prove their involvement?
How s that fair on Stephen Lawrence or his family?
When...
No its the whole point - How can you argue that the SL accused never got a fair trial if you wouldn't give someone a fair trial in any circumstances be it for murder or anything?
I'm not twisting your words..
Some people on here have implied that the accused in the Stephen Lawrence case never got a fair hearing because the jurors had knowledge of the case and the media and public have made them aware of aspects of the case including their racism.
The question was would...
No he isn't he's missed the whole point and that as a Juror you are supposed to be impartial before the evidence is presented- the fact that its a black on white ACCUSATION has nothing to do with it

You can have mixed views about subjects Das you should try it you might like it
It refers to anyone that judges people by the colour of their skin - only you know that - This may surprise a few but I actually agree with SOME of what Bushy is trying to infer. Its difficult to not to have known some of the case detail and therefore be completely able to not think about the...
The British Justice System!!!!!!
Ha! You want to see what goes on in the family courts - You can be found guilty in those courts without trial let alone jury. The hearings are held in secret and you are not allowed to discuss the case with ANYONE except a legal representative. I have seen and...
Well I doubt it Das - maybe if the case brings out a racist motive and the people charged get off with terrible police failings involved and then after 18 years and a lot more evidence, a change in the law, improvements in DNA testing and a retrial it might!
What will you say if someone in the...
