The wife, TC is apparently a minister.

Wait a second. That doesn't make sense. The request was signed "Baloo" aka D Challenor.

They also signalled that they have access to the most private information, and therefore are the closest to Aimee.

This.

And that this is happening, that the Guardian can come out with the most useless of coverage, that the BBC can ignore it entirely?

I feel sick.

I think now we see why there were such reporting restrictions on this case in the first place.

I think most of us thought that the reporting restrictions were due to an injunction trying to protect AC (understandably really, given the TRAs' use of injunctions in the past).

But it now looks like AC wasn't the one the reporting restrictions were trying to protect.

Cerisa that's a really good point about it being deliberate but pretending to be casual. Looking again at how it is written you are absolutely right, it isn't natural wording.

CaitlynsCat · 27/08/2018 12:59

the wife is not a real minister, she just filled in a form online at a 'universal' church. That's her qualification.

NothingOnTellyAgain · 27/08/2018 13:01

Thank you for reporting to the police.
Is tweet still up.
Could people search your wording.
You might want to get the post pulled if so.

carceralfeminist · 27/08/2018 13:01

It's a double-edged sword, isn't it, because the victim was hypothetically presumably already "outed" within the TRA circles, given that DC apparently kept smearing her a fantasist.
The difference is that now the world knows what happened.
And we believe HER. Not the depraved sadistic rapist and whoever is trying to cover for him.
FUCK anyone trying to spin this.
The focus needs to be on DC, AC and TC, the Green Party, Stonewall, the Scouts, etc etc etc, to investigate this shit and start demanding answers.

Its quite upsetting that the green party do not seem to be taking this seriously at all.

CesiraAndEnrico · 27/08/2018 13:02

That the judge will be tipped the wink and will overlook a crime? That's a completely unjustified smear.

No.

That they have and do accept "That was an unfortunate slip, it wasn't a deliberate attempt to put the name out there" as a reason. And do not begin legal proceeding against the person revealing the protected names.

The case I was involved in did involve a Judge's Chambers. The guy running things for the judge was lovely. Was as frustrated and angry as I was. And the judge in that case is one that I think is one of your best. If he could have done something about the posting of the name, after everything he had done to underline how the child's privacy must be protected, he would have. No doubt.

Which is why I think the tweet in question was in part worded the way it was, in order to provide an "opps!" defence.

I hope the police act on this. Naming an anonymous victim is an absolutely vile thing to do - not just a criminal offence but something that is enormously distressing to the victim.

Amalfimamma · 27/08/2018 13:06

I've reported my post and ask you all to do the same

BraveAndStunning · 27/08/2018 13:09

Can anyone shed any light on this

I think the twitter fuckwit is not in the UK so not sure if reporting them to local police will do anything. Have you reported to Twitter amalfi?

People outside the UK are naming child rape victims within the UK?

For fuck's sake the internet is an amazing thing but so many issues and I have no idea how the auhorities can possibly keep up / prosecute effectively.

This blog post is from the woman expelled from the Green Party for calling a trans woman a male.

According to the LBGTIQA+ Greens chair, cross dressing for sexual purposes does not make you trans. Maybe someone should tell Stonewall that their Trans umbrella is wrong.
