Or rather their barrister does. The case somehow got as far as court without the police giving Caroline's representations to the barrister. Once he read them he declined to proceeed.

Not at all - I am highlighting the fact that there are a lot of assumptions being made. And whether or not you think I'm a police officer isn't relevant.

I know I know, dont touch the poo, but I could not let this stand.

Its whether you think your a police officer that matters.
You do outright say you are one, so you are in effect representing the force by what you say on here.

Some of us know what's going on, we dont need to assume and we definitely don't need some random man to come and explain in terms our lady brains can understand.

I dont think any one of us believes you are in any way in the police force. But that doesnt matter. We dont need your opinion 64 thousand million times.

I know you wont listen, you will reply with but we just dont know. That's fine too, you wont catch us out, we wont suddenly say all the things we haven't yet said.

Youn seem to think we are idiots, but an idiot would keep repeating the same thing umpteen million times in hopes of a different result.

DrLouiseJMoody · 24/06/2023 04:20

Yes, @DarkDayforMN, like I'm going to answer! I'm confining myself to what's publicly available (either what's been said by Caroline or what was reported from court) - the police said Caroline can discuss the case with me and some others but we're hardly going to be providing details thus leading to more complaints.

I think that Felix is an envoy and I strongly suspect I've had the misfortune of dealing with him before (no, I don't think he is the complainant). He's a low IQ fantasist who thinks he knows far more about the law than he actually does, but that's evident from his posts.

I won't publicly speculate about who I think he is beyond saying I'm sure he's not a police officer.

DarkDayforMN · 24/06/2023 03:40

So are you speculating that CF's interview was not a 'no reply' one?
How were the other 'submissions' made I wonder if not under caution - were they sent in the post?

I am highlighting this blatant fishing for information about the case, just in case anyone not following the thread closely still thinks he’s a policeman.

I'm not on twitter so I rely on these links

I'm not either - I find it really irritating! But when I have time to work my way through loads of nonsense you can find interesting info.

But it always amazes me as in fact twitter is one of the least subscribed to social media platforms that really clever and interesting women (like JKR!) bother with it.

But it seems to be a way to get lazy journalists to maybe pick up a story.

I'm not derailing - I am talking about the subject matter of the thread.

FuckNuggets
I've never identified as a solicitor. Whether you believe or disbelieve I am a police officer is irrelevant - I have never cited to my credentials in a discussion. That's effectively and argument from authority, which doesn't work in any discussion. Its like saying "I have a degree therefore I am right". Either the argument is good or the argument is bad.

It was submitted to the court who are the ones who put the order in place. They could have kicked it out at the first hearing but didn't - it was adjourned. So the court must have thought it had some merit in progressing it.

@MNHQ please could we have an ignore or block poster button? It would make threads much easier to follow and less prone to derailment.

I can't wait for a certain someone to wade in here to declare "they did nuffin' wrong guv" or "not providing your barrister all of the relevant material is JUSTICE".

<Pulls pew>

I hope you're wrong...

What a relief for Caroline that this nonsense is over (until the next time - grrr!)

Have a read up on how SPO are used first.

How they can be applied before the point of going to CPS for a charging decision.
How they are seen as a success and over 70% are approved

ANameChangePresents
The police provided their barrister with 'all the evidence' - that's what the list of conditions were.

What was not presented was CF defence submissions. But if she went 'no reply' in her interview - the police would not have been able to submit her defence submissions because there was nothing to submit

Fucking hell! You're like a dog with a fucking bone, aren't you? Do you identify as a police officer in the same way you identified as a solicitor?

She went to sea in a Sieve, she did,
In a Sieve she went to sea:
In spite of all her friends could say,
On a winter’s morn, on a stormy day,
In a Sieve she went to sea!
And when the Sieve turned round and round,
And every one cried, ‘You’ll all be drowned!’
She called aloud, ‘My Sieve ain’t big,
But I don’t care a button! I don’t care a fig!
In a Sieve I’ll go to sea!’

LOLZ. Questions designed to trip me into being sued again. Nah. Not going there. Must be rather frustrating knowing that I know but won't be divulging anything :-]

I'm not even going to comment on his comprehension fail regarding evidence.

What a surprise. Absolutely ruins every single thread he's on

Personally I think he makes the threads he's on. It's always wonderful to watch someone of his 'calibre' make themselves look like an utter plum. But then I've always been one for schadenfreude.

CovertImage · 23/06/2023 16:59

DrLouiseJMoody · 23/06/2023 15:04

Felix is, unsurprisingly since he's not a police officer, wrong.

The police had submissions but, for reasons I won't speculate upon, failed to include them. They hadn't even read them before submitting the application.

Given that the submissions, once rightfully taken into consideration, binned the application, one wonders if the complainant's statements and / or other conduct now warrants scrutiny. It's clear a case cannot proceed merely upon someone's say-so.

What a surprise. Absolutely ruins every single thread he's on
