The news about that poor woman who they said got her boot stuck in the cattle grid at a level crossing is getting really murky. Her boyfriend has been charged with manslaughter - and police no longer believe she got stuck, apparently.

Horrible.

Yeah, but isn't that the point of namechanging? To go incognito?

soapbox · 05/04/2008 23:39

I think it is slightly different to post about someone you know is a poster here than someone from a newspaper - but generally speaking as long as it was clear it was their own opinion I cannot see a problem. And of course, I am never away from the local station

Its not so much about being incognito - its about a person who we beileve should show some profesionalism - doesn't amtter what role they play in criminal justice sysyem , has been in my opiinon and some other Mns 'unprofessional ' in comments used about a dead woman .

Exacttly Dittany - the woman killed was a friend and daughter . whatever she did with her life it is no excuse to be called a 'scumbag' on a public forum.

It's not a question of being okay with this, it's a question of when do we stop allowing people to post opinions about news topics, no matter how unpleasant, because they namechanged.

expatinscotland · 05/04/2008 23:46

My ex bf is someone's son. And she loves him dearly.

But he's an abusive, murdering scumbag.

She knows that, too.

CaptainUnderpants · 05/04/2008 23:47

Yes Kerrymum - but you calling them scumbags BUT we dont know who they are do we - or do you wish to name them ?

Is he dead too then expat?

soapbox · 05/04/2008 23:49

Yes, I'll give you that one LL - it was stated as a fact not an opinion.

expatinscotland · 05/04/2008 23:50

Oh, god, no, VVV. He'll probably outlive the lot of us..

But if he were, I wouldn't be bothered by people calling him by his rightful name: a scumbag.

it would explain what happened though. can't we just have and accept inside information. everyone seems slighly paranoid and suspicious

edam · 05/04/2008 23:50

There are two small children who have lost their mother. And who don't have their father at the moment either, since he's been remanded.

Seems rather cowardly and cruel to name-change in order to slag the poor woman off.
