    She certainly has, but I'm just thinking that if she went to police first, surely they would tell her to stay away from social -- if she didn't would the defensive use that to question her credibility. In the circumstances of course she may not have been thinking straight.

    Probably couldn't wait to ruin his career. Imagine sitting on the evidence she had, but being conflicted on whether to go to the police and keeping anonymity and going through potentially months of stress and anxiety, bottled up. Or dropping a social media bomb and letting all her frustration out in one foul tweet. Can't blame her really.

    I would do the same, the joy of breaking the twat would be joyous.

    In many respects, Adam Johnson was made an example of.
    Many people in responsible positions, Teachers for example, did far worse and got much lighter punishments.

    Not that I have any sympathy for Johnson, I just think the others got away with it.
    But the bar has been set

    If this young man is found Guilty as Charged, I can't see him being given an easy time of it.

    At one point in the US the only way to try the Church for noncery was through the press as the systems in place protected them.

    I imagine the systems in place in the UK and the army of high priced lawyers he had no doubt made her life uncomfortable.

    I don't blame her at all.

    Although the supposed statement from her old man about her phone being hacked is a bit odd.

    Watch the linked YouTube video. Her Dad has released a statement saying she didn't want it released that he account was hacked and basically playing it down to a bit of a rough patch in their relationship.

    It's interesting what people will accept to get a lavish lifestyle as I would be wanting to murder the little ****er!

    I have always said this, Johnson was given a harsh punishment when looking at similar offences and punishment given out previously (which is the way the law is meant to work). Now I am not saying that he didn't deserve that amount if time but so did everybody else.

    And talking about teachers I think it's disgusting that female teachers all but get away with it when they are caught having sex with young boys! Everyone makes a big joke and goes wish had teachers like that in my day etc... but it shouldn't be looked at like that by the courts etc...

    It's weird as he is almost playing it down. I get the impression they either want to maintain the living with a footballer life or Greenwood has offered them bags of cash to forget about it and she has removed the video and are now playing it down!

    I suspect it’s now out of both hers and her dads control now. The cps will pursue this even if she withdraws any allegations and refuses to cooperate with the cops I think. They may just have all the evidence they need for a successful prosecution if the photos are a) genuine, b) of her and if the voice recording is actually him and her and the circumstances are real.
    I am sure those highly paid lawyers are constructing a robust defence as we speak.

    Won't need to construct much if a defence if she plays it down enough. She could say sound recording was faked/acting/some sort of game, video and images had nothing to do with incidents with him. Cps won't be able to do anything with that!

    I she says yeah it happened but she doesn't want to make a formal complaint then that is different they will still go after him but I get the impression early on she has changed her mind!

    Yeah it will probably come to nothing in the end but the cps will do all they can to nail him. Hopefully if there is something in it and he still gets away with it he will sort himself out on the back of this episode. He probably won’t though.
    Must say that the blood in that pic looks fake to me, the fat lip looks real though. Maybe the blood was to embellish the story to make the injury seem worse for the photo op?

    I can’t stand instagram, it’s the worst alongside TikTok.

    I think if he gets away with it this time it's only a matter of time until he does it to a girl that won't play it down or he goes a little bit too far and a girl ends up in a much worse way.

    Well said. A youngun at work showed me some of it as I hadn't heard a dicky bird about it all.

    Appalling, and couldn't watch or listen to it really. He is finished , and we now know something about the character of this wretch that has Southgate completely ignore him.

    He'll be two'd up with Mendy on the nonces wing in Strangeways.

    Her Dad's reaction is a strange one, but maybe he is just thinking that his cash cow is for the chop if he's convicted.

    And this is exactly why it should be properly investigated rather than just thrown out because she says so.

    It will be investigated but its how far it can get in a court if law. If the cps thunk she will blow it out the water in front of a jury they won't take it all the way.
