Oops. Sorry about that.
While not trying to defend this in any way, I heard today the victim was no saint. She used to be part if the gang and allegedly dished out something similar to another girl recently
Watched the video last night - don't know how this one goes down as GBH with intent. More like attempted murder to be honest.
I have just seen the video and it's Definitely not attempted murder. Depending on the injuries it may not even be a GBH although I'd expect at least an attempted GBH. Vile and reprehensible
How is it not attempted murder? Repeated pounding of the head against concrete? That happened at least twice. A couple of hundred punches to the head? Holding her head under the water in a fountain when she tried to escape? Sorry, but that girl would be dead by now if she didn't get away when she did.
Attempted murder is a very difficult crime to convict someone of. It is one is specific intent ie it has to be proven that their absolute intent was to murder the girl. It’s quite clear that they wanted to hurt this girl, it’s not clear they wanted to kill her therefore it is not attempted murder. There is also
A fair chance that it will be downgraded to actual bodily harm if they injuries are not serious. I don’t know what the injuries are but if they are superficial cuts and bruises it ultimately will be ABH.
Essentially in the eyes of the law, the same as a bit of a row outside a chip shop in any town on any sat night then. Your mostly likely right, but that doesn't mean there wasn't a more serious scenario here. You would like to think....and hope that they will get the maximum tariff on whatever it is, they are ultimately charged with.
I see a few stories circulating on facebook that the girl that took the beating in Bangor was part of the gang that gave her the beating.
She's also been accused of dishing out a few beatings herself and allegedly was wearing an ankle tag on that video.
Doesn't excuse what happened, but sometimes things aren't as straight forward as they seem
And the fund that was set up for her has been pulled with many people taking back the money or gifts.
You couldnt make this shit up.
Henderson has his critics but he was immense last night, as was Wijnaldum when he came on.
Ox could be done for a while if its a ligament. Pity, he was in great form and it leaves us light in midfield now if any of Milner,Hendo or Gigi get injured.
Strange feeling this morning, if you had offered me a 3-1 before the match I would have bit your arm off but feel like we let them off the hook. Lat night and Saturday further emphasized how poor we are at defending a lead when we stop our high tempo, pressing game and let teams come onto us. The likes of TAA, Lovren,Gomez, Karius are always liable to make a mistake. Really hope we do not go to Rome and try to sit back as that will be asking for troubles.
Has there ever been a better individual season by a player in the premier league than Salah? The only ones that I think come close are Suarez in 2013/14 (31 league goals, no penalties and missed 6 games at the start), Ronaldo in 2007/08 or Henry in 2003/04. Shearer had a coupel of great goalscoring seasons but did nt have the magic that the other players have.
100. Apparently people on the "Alfie's Army" Facebook page were asking people to set off fire alarms in the hospital.The parents are within their rights to fight tooth and nail for their child but at some point some sense needs to kick in. I take it the taxpayer is bankrolling all of this.
Of course they are, but they have no right to suggest staff at the hospital intend to murder their son or invite people to come down to the hospital and disrupt it.Evacuating a hospital whilst people are in theatre or critical care seems like a sensible thing to do!
So the child has been taken of the ventilator and has been breathing unassisted for over 11 hours.
This really is WTF.
Scary shit
According to the child's father which, unfortunately, means the statement has a rather large asterisk beside it.
That video of that wee girl really annoyed me today...
Between that and the fcukwits at the hospital I’m despairing for the human race at this stage...
"Protesters" attempting to storm a children's hospital.These people would generally be found in a Jeremy Kyle audience. Vermin.
Well deserved. Best player in the Premier League this season by a country mile.
Really pulled ahead of KDB in the last month or so. When is the voting for this?
Mo’s not happy, he can’t find his drink!!
