The Defence Will State Their Case

I know, I was just winding you up for a reaction ; - )  This is what I was really referring to, beats Ian Dury's horrendous din any day...

As for moderating, I got the job out of the blue originally because I mentioned moderator (as in silencer) more times than anybody else and admin took it that I was begging for promotion!

Oh, and this is Janet Foss with her two wet legs...

I guess that's as good a reason as any 


Yes good song, didn't realise he was still alive!

Very nice picture of Janet Foss (Jennet) behind the waterfall is a cave that once lived the Queen of the FARIES 

Looks like they have disappeared back there

Janet Foss is a waterfall near Malham, behind the waterfall,  is a cave where legend has it that this cave was the home of the Fairy Queen Jennet.  Basically it’s a well known tourist attraction and walk in the Dales.

One thing I do agree with Tabak, when he squeezed Joanna’s neck to keep her silent, I think that part is true, but he intended for her silence to be forever.

[Real justice]

I also read that the UK sent Tabak’s DNA and fingerprints to the USA and Holland to check their systems I suppose?  These being the Countries Tabak visited.

One of the things I struggle with, Tabak saying he only squeezed Joanna’s throat for 20 seconds?  I know this is Tabak’s version, but it was excepted at the trial, I would have thought to strangle someone much longer time would be needed?  Cutting off oxygen supply and blood supply, I thought the body could last longer?  I only thought being asphyxiated by Carbon Monoxide Or another poison gas would take you that quick?

And copies of his enhanced DNA to police forces throughout Britain, so I believe.

In "Under The Wig", William Clegg QC (or his ghost-writer) stated that some doctors say it's possible to kill quickly by applying pressure to the vagal nerve (sic). I think that should read "vagus".  And also that certain military personnel are trained in just such a technique.

I thought the sample was used up in the enhancing process???

I did read somewhere that Joanna died because her heart stopped.
