Don't they first of all have to accept their guilt and show some contrition for that to happen? Interesting one then.

Not that easy mate, once the police had the required evidence they could prosecute him even if the lass decided not to cooperate, it wasn't her who was prosecuting him, it was the CPS. The idea of paying someone off might work for a civil case, harder for a criminal one

Why would anyone even consider him playing for us again?

Similar circumstances with the Ched Evans case wasnt it?

No i'm saying that its weird people arguing that it would have been fairer that a nonce that was found guilty of grooming and digitally entering a child should get say 3 or 4 years instead of 6. Its bizarre man and i guarantee the same people arguing in Johnson's 'defence' would be saying the opposite if it was a Newcastle player.

It was, the lass didnt even report it as she remembered nothing and just wanted to find her phone, but the police were pushing with it, not the lass. Perhaps Johnsons wasnt like that (but thats what the other poster implied) so sorry if thats a mistake.

It's true that she reported the theft of the phone and through intial investigation the police this lead to the arrest and charge of Evans.
With the AJ case the victim came forward with her father to make the disclosures that lead to his arrest,charge and conviction.How you can compare them I dont know.

How? By being told by another poster, on this thread, and in response to the comment of mine you quoted, that the police led the Johnson case in the same way they did the Evans one. Obviously. I knew of the way the Evans case came about, and someone else said the same was true of the Johnson case, hence I mentioned that that was similar to Evans.
This thread is full of people trying to put words in other peoples mouths.

Ah well my mistake, someone on this thread said it and it fits with your view on the police and apportioning blame to the victim in this case so just go with it.
f***ing hell, people on here think the earth is flat and Sept 11 didn't happen.

There wasnt any anti police view, or victim blaming. It was merely asking how they unfolded. On both cases the plod did right. Not sure why youre looking to put words in peoples mouths and look for an argument that isnt there tbh.

He's a nonce he's registered as a nonce he's serving time for being a nonce. Can we just leave him rotting away with Rolf Harris in Dartmoor or wherever they've got him

I said "How can you compare the to" and made it clear through facts the cases are different and proved this.
I'm not putting words into your mouth but your opinions on the victim on this thread have drawn some criticism as you seem to apportion blame to her, that's bad form.
You are well known as anti-police and either do it as part of the WUM persona or someone else who uses your account has this view.
So much shite about the case has been posted on here that wasn't true such as someone stating the reason it dragged out (before he was charged) was because the police wanted him to accept a caution and he wouldn't, again total nonsense.

I agree, I hadnt compared them at all, until the point another poster suggested similarities. I should have just presumed they were lying. Glad the misunderstanding has been cleared up. Well done the police. On both cases.
Tbf though if she hadn't given evidence the case would have surely fallen. Almost impossible to prove guilt on what is said in interviews etc. because the defence don't get a chance to cross examine the person making the allegations. Pretty sure part of the reason for pitifully low conviction rates in DV cases is because once the partner refuses to give evidence the case cracks and the trail doesn't go ahead.
