    U16's don't go to prison do they?

    Unless you think they'll just send him to one of those young offenders places.

    Our regular visitor from Lester caused much consternation on there by suggesting that the people who thought him innocent until proven guilty were fine, but those chanting in his support when he'd been charged weren't fine...oh and that he thought their fans wouldn't have been so supportive if he hadn't been an important first team player

    First time I've completely agreed with him!

    When I did jury service this happened 90% + of the time, get to final stage (court) plead guilty, get a lesser sentence for 'admitting guilt' - get time off sentence for not having to put victim through giving 'evidence' & deny a couple of other charges (bit of unofficial plea bargaining) -
    the experienced 'con's play this game & spend a chunk of time as a remand prisoner (better conditions) & this gets knocked off their sentence ...

    lost my faith in justice after this ....

    He's obviously going to get banged up for a while and not be able to play, so may as well terminate his contract now and save the salary as well as placing distance between the trial fall-out and Sunderland FC

    It was inevitable once he'd admitted it - Sunderland had no other option.

    From what I understand 2 charges he has pleaded not guilty, so the trial will still go ahead. So it will still put the girl through the rigors of the court case. However maybe she will do it by video link though.

    He's going to be very popular inside although he'll be too old for most of the people on his wing

    Yes that's my understanding - mine was just an example of what I witnessed (or didn't ) - the 'court staff ' ? told us at one point it was 3 months before a trial actually went to 'jury' - at the last minute all the 'accused' admitted 'guilt' with lesser (less provable) charges being dropped

    For the girl she should get video link or pre-recorded if deemed so.
    Perhaps his brief has advised he has a 'chance' (beyond reasonable doubt) with the other charges ?

    Sunderland fc deserve all the stick they are getting at the moment on these forums, any other occupation Johnson, would have been suspended as soon as the allegations came to light till it was sorted one way or another.

    Suspending someone because of allegations alone is unfair, there's no way of telling if they are genuine or malicious. Once he was charged with the offences they have reason to believe there is a case to be answered and should have then suspended him pending the verdict of the court.

    I was grooming the cat last night. He's not even six yet.

    Bit worried now. Should I turn myself in?

    From seeing him during has days in the restaurants and bars around Alderley Edge post match days whilst he was at Man City, why am I not surprised by this. Certainly liked his drink more so than most at face value

    Is liking a drink a sign of a predilection for under age females? There are plenty on here we should be concerned about in that case.
