No,  I read them,   and appreciate DCI's efforts

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't see any other updates on here today.

That's why I pointed out that   Anne's reports are  'much anticipated'   ...   160 guests at this time of night is pretty remarkable,  and the only explanation for it is that our  'reporter on the ground'   has people hooked,  and waiting  ...

Yes, that is the actual number Icabodcrane.  As soon as our sister site @justice_forum tweets on twitter the numbers jump up as many more people view the site.

ps my apologies for using the word prosecution earlier, I was distracted as was trying to deal with several issues at once.

Did you miss DCI's contributions of Jerry Lawtons tweets?

I think copying a few tweets to the board can't be compared with all the effort Anne has gone too, not only attending he trial but also constructing lengthy reports.

You're dedication is commendable Anne and I for one thank you.

The tweets are available elsewhere, so I agree, instead of a few snippets, of this and that, a  detailed report is the bees knees....well, the media are not reporting apart from in a biased way...more balanced and in depth reporting is better

Prosecution? It's not the Inquisition Plantiffs v Defendants isn't it?

In civil cases: claimants v.s. respondents

[Lyall]

Ah. Thanks Luz 

[Luz]

You are welcome Lyall

I came for Anne's report but this little troll is starting to annoy me! 

[John]

Its only Kevin again, risen from the dead and reincarnated as Elizabeth.  Account expunged!

[Lyall]

I can see it must drive many campaigners crazy when they see the amount of publicity this case gets - the Express and Mirror front pages being the perfect illustration. I can see her point (though I don't know about the case either. Shamefully no doubt)

There you are John ! 

When can we expect Anne's report  ?  ...  it's nearly midnight,  and still well over a hundred  'guests'  on the board

We are lucky to have members who go out and bring back the information so that the rest of us can share it.  Anne is covering the libel trial while Joanne graciously attended a justice workshop in Sheffield for us not so long ago.  All greatly appreciated ladies!

As far as today's Reports are concerned the first of them should be available in the morning.  Anne has to write them up from her notes using both Portuguese and English and then I have to edit them...all takes time.

And yes Neeley, the Reports are matter of fact.

[Redblossom]

You think Anne's reports are impartial?

Really?

Why shouldnt they be.....reporting from a court and misreporting facts? Oh really?
 And be reported all over the net, get a grip


Get over yourself for a change when someone provides their free time energy and imparts info and be bleedin thankful however much it may stick in your craw

[John]

You know this ?

How?

I edit them.
