Maybe the police and the courts have looked at the concept of 'Trial by Facebook' and thought, 'You know what, that's a better way to do it than the way we are doing, saves the hassle for us'?;)
If she was doped, how did the toxicology reports come back? I assume that when she reported the incident someone took a blood/urine sample to see if she was ok?
 
As someones highlighted already if there is any genuine belief that this is a misjustice, then I fully expect to see appeals going to the highest court in this country.

However I reckon were more likely to see more shitty stupid marches as they arent interested in justice but cause tensions in Sunderland to rise.
 
Thing about that is, she has memory of the violence and threats but cant remember getting out. Shes admitted 3 blokes were blocking her getting out the house so how did she manage it.

And was she in her underwear running down the street? Or did she get dressed? It's all weird.

Something does need to be done to stop the rise in racial tension and hate with regards to this case. A more detailed statement on why the case was closed needs to be aired to set the record straight. The lack of information is leading to speculation and people filling in the gaps with their own views and stating them as matter of fact.
 
Have you read the comments on that article !! :eek:

Gary Hayter looks like Manson :lol:

Bang on mate. You fear an innoscent person is going to end up dead over all this if it continues.

The rise in racial hate since Brexit is very concerning and this has become a platform for those who want to further this. Now that the Far Right think they have found an excuse that the police and courts are protecting 'Immigrant rapists', this will encourage others to want to apply their own justice against anyone who they think looks like an immigrant.
 
The article itself isn't the best either. But it gives a good account of what she said happened, even if it's by virtue of assumed guilt on someone's part.

I don't want to go down the road of trying to cast doubt on the veracity of a woman who claims to have been raped. However the police should be taking an incident like the one she described extremely seriously. From what I've read there were people arrested and various forensic evidence taken. If the CPS don't proceed they must be concerned that they don't have a strong enough case, so first thing, people need to think f***ing hard before casting vague aspersions that the authorities just haven't been bothered to do anything.

If they genuinely think the authorities haven't been diligent, they should campaign, absolutely. The best route for such a campaign would be through one of several organisations that specialises in working for victims of rape and sexual assault. Rape Crisis is one, and there are others. They have been working very hard for decades to improve the way the police investigate cases, the CPS prosecutes them and the courts handle them. They have had measurable results. If there has been an increase in gang rapes, targeting women in bars, they will make a very compelling case. They will raise awareness. They will knock on the doors of senior police officers.

Any such campaign would need to be very focused and very factual. Shouting in the street about it with highly suspect hearsay about incidents instead of a properly presented message is not going to cut it.

And like it or not, it looks as suspicious as fuck that the far right, in latching on to this, is clearly only interested in ethnic minority suspects, and hasn't said a f***ing word in the many years that they've been active about the numerous problems over the years in getting the authorities to do a better job investigating rape cases. But now they're suddenly reborn as Julie Bindel now there's a Muslim/refugee angle.
