Ulster court case

[eloisesparkle]

Are we allowed discuss ongoing court cases on Mumsnet ?

As I said on the other threads, I believe her.

The law stinks.

Totally agree. 8 men v 3 women on jury ... what a joke

Just listening to Liveline and they had on a journalist who was there in the court everyday. He certainly believed her, as did I.

I honestly felt physically sick reading the result earlier. People wonder why victims don't come forward? This is why!!!

Does anyone have a link to the supposed rally in Belfast tomorrow? Thanks

I feel so sorry for her.

Reporting restrictions have been lifted, blood was airbrushed from the photos of the sheets that were shown to the jury.

Jaysus.

Oh my God how is that allowed, I am absolutely shocked.

Just leaving this here.

Tip of the iceberg I suspect . I wonder what (if anything) the Belfast Telegraph will report tomorrow.

Maryz that was just above the article from the guy from the supporters club wanting them back playing for Ulster, utterly depressing.

The blood airbrushing thing makes me want to weep. Absolute animals.

Sickened by the restrictions. FFS. Just shows you what £100,000 worth of lawyers can do for you.

I cannot understand why the judge did not want to lift the restrictions after the court cleared them, the media had to go to the chief justice who ordered the judge to hold the hearing to life the restrictions.

News breaking now - the IRFU and Ulster are dropping them both.

I was worried they wouldn’t.

Well that's great news.
