Has anyone else noticed that over the last two days Toby has resorted to alarmingly posting laughing smileys. Do you think he has found his man at last?
I've never actually tried Ovaltine, Have you Dev? Being an insomniac I am tempted to give it a try as I have read it is good last thing at night for aiding a restful sleep. I'll try anything to be honest.
The trouble Ciaran is that I cannot swith off my brain. Constantly thinking, worrying and probably trying to avoid the violent and deathly nightmares. Does anyone have good dreams on here. I only get the occasional one.
That there were multiple women making very similar accusations, call me old fashioned (or cynical) but I refuse to beleive they were all in it for the publicity or the money.. In Scotland Roache would have not had such an easy ride. THE name Moorov is well-known in Scottish criminal law. Samuel Moorov's case in the High Court in Glasgow in 1930 gave rise to what has become commonly known as the Moorov doctrine. The principle was established in the famous case from Scots law of Moorov (Samuel) v HM Advocate in 1930, when an employer was accused of sexual offences against 19 female employees during a period of about three years at a drapery business he ran in Argyle Street, Glasgow. It was decided that the close interrelation in time, place and circumstances between the offences demonstrated that this amounted to a single course of conduct which could be proved by the witnesses to each offence corroborating one another. The principle means that a number of offences witnessed by only one person can be grouped together to show a pattern of behaviour and then could be used in a court case. An appeal from Moorov's lawyers was unsuccessful, but he did manage to have his sentence reduced from four years to one. The view was generally taken to begin with that the "Moorov doctrine" applied only to sexual offences where corroboration was normally difficult to obtain. However, it did apply to a series of assaults by razor slashing in a 1951 case
So the 'no smoke without fire'? That's Jeremy from Peep Show reasoning. If everybody on here was to go to the police and say you touched us all up, would that make it true? I mean, there would be multiple people making very similar accusations.
