Quote ="Angelic Cynic"The same one as the members of the jury did.
Those who actually have law degrees were prepared to defend him from the allegations made.( It seems okay for the CPS to support in court an individual who broke the laws of the land and had controlled drugs in her system despite doing everything they can to save money and NOT proceed in cases where some witnesses have previous convictions which are not so serious.)

Of course it is.That is why the WAG's are rushing away in their droves.
Out of thousands of soccer players over the past 5 years through their clubs scattered around the nation only Marlon King and Ched Evans have made the news for their actions.Please add to the list of all the people steeped in misogyny - or can I just accept that Evans was an easy target, and an easy conviction,and the general public are beyond ridiculous?

Are you for real. Those with Law Degrees defended the killers of Lee Rigby. They defended Peter Sutcliffe, they defended anyone who has gone through a court process. Its called a fair judicial system. Without it it is liable to abuse on a large scale.
The fact that she had drugs, drink etc in her system does not make her fair game for abuse. I may well be reading too much into your comments and if I am I apologies but having read it several times I think you are treading on decidedly dodgy ground. In your world any lady drunk on a street in Hull on Friday night (or any other time of the day, or any other place in the world) is open to abuse. Then if they are abused the CPS, Police, courts etc should simply say unlucky lady, you got what you deserved.
As for your list I'll raise your two and give you Terry, Giggs, though I'd argue Coddy is being a little over dramatic, but it does have issues as does all sport. Golf and their no women policy (in some parts) being a main one. But then the moral standard in this country is supposedly set by the Church. Lets leave it there.
