I think we’re this happening in a courtroom that after an objection the prosecution might say “speaks to character”. It may not be directly related but she’s very clealry trying to paint the picture of how she views him.
Yeah, this is where someone needs to tell her to leave it be now.
I mean, I get it, if she is telling the truth she must frustrated but she could be fucking her case up (is she? I’m not a lawyer).
Damn, what hacks are those?
@Joshua ?
All I got from that bucketload of screenshots was that they had a tumultuous relationship. Beyond that I don’t see evidence.
Saying an innocent man doesnt respond like that says nothing to me.
So those tweets show they know eachother and she has made an accusation. …
I don’t think the police/prosecutor feels she has a case hence her going to twitter?
That’s her right?
@Flexo
Did you not see the part about her saying he tried to force his penis in her mouth?
Also according to her the reason for them not pressing forward is due to a legal technicality.
Oh damn she’s hot.
Bin Partey
She may have fucked up the case for the other woman, no?
What a mess.
If I had to guess, I’d lean toward her telling the truth, which means Partey is a real scumbag.
But I think its also pretty clear that the legal case against him won’t be going anywhere. And she doesn’t have any real proof beyond her own claims that would be the basis for a big media-fueled shitstorm. Those text exchanges aren’t any kind of smoking gun and she is breaking an NDA to say all this stuff too, which may complicate the ability of a media source to report on it. Overall, its really not like the Greenwood situation where the guy is actually on tape doing and saying awful things.
Didn’t he punch her once the scumbag? I remember seeing a pic of her with her cheek swollen like tennis ball.
There’s also the part where he asks if he was meant to wake her up first, and then says he doesn’t have to wake her up… I don’t know how else you can read that…
Haven’t commented on this at all since the start but Partey must never play for Arsenal ever again.
He should be suspended with pay immediately and have his contract terminated following a private investigation.
Yep.
Not far removed from what Greenwood was doing, difference is Partey wasn’t recorded.
Tielemans incoming
Please keep in mind I am not licensed to practice in the UK and am only speaking from experience as a prosecutor in the USA and haven’t read the case file.
If the police have made a decision not to charge someone with a crime and have communicated that decision to a victim, there’s no case to “fuck up” because that person isn’t charged.
In some jurisdictions a private citizen may go to a court commissioner and file charges themselves. This actually happened in Maryland a few years ago. A young woman asked the police to investigate a rape, the police refused to charge, the prosecutor’s office refused to charge and the victim went to the court commissioner, pled her case and had the commissioner issue an arrest warrant for the named suspect. The case was subsequently dismissed because even if a private citizen could file charges, the prosecutor has sole discretion when it comes to actually pursuing cases.
So if things are similar in the UK and the CPS has sole discretion to pursue cases, and the CPS and police have had conversations about a particular matter and concluded that charges would be either inappropriate or unsustainable at trial, they should have communicated that decision back to the victim. At that point, the victim may be out of options in terms of a criminal case.
Now there may also be civil considerations at play. It’s not unheard of for private people to enter into non-disclosure agreements. We know that people like Harvey Weinstein and Donald Trump used them to keep individuals quiet about abuses, both proven and alleged.
If a person speaks out (or violates that NDA) they may be opening themselves up to a world of trouble. If the NDA meant money changed hands, well you have party in the transaction taking money but not staying silent. That’s a breach of contract. The other party may sue claiming that there was a breach. It may be successful, it may be unsuccessful, it may be worth it in the eyes of the person allegedly breaching the NDA because they feel like they have a moral or ethical obligation to speak out or they feel like they were trapped in a situation they didn’t truly understand at the time. If you recall, the person who accused Cristiano Ronaldo of rape basically hired a lawyer to file motions to invalidate the NDA she signed saying that at the time she had a lawyer who was in over their head and she (the accuser) didn’t really appreciate what was going on and signed this agreement that if she’d had proper representation leading to a free, knowing and voluntary waiver of her rights she might not have signed it at all!
The situation that’s unfolding on Twitter is awful (which is par for the course with Twitter) but I’m not sure that an alleged victim speaking out or outing themselves will really do anything to the case if the police and prosecutor have already made up their minds.
This also assumes that it’s discretionary. Sometimes the police and prosecutors can’t charge certain crimes because the actions described just aren’t criminal or fall outside the statute of limitations. For example, some crimes in my jurisdiction can only be charged for one year and one day after they occurred. If you wait one year and two days, you’re too late. Even if the charges are somehow filed and nobody catches it, a judge will toss it out at the first ask.
So yeah, tl:dr, fucking up a case? What case? There is no case that we know of right now.
Edit: @Flexo, you mentioned another alleged victim. I don’t know that one alleged victim’s actions really impact a second investigation. The police would presumably be in contact with that victim, gathering evidence pertaining to that alleged incident and consulting with CPS on the specifics of that alleged incident.
Edu internally excited to terminate one more contract
In a lot of ways actually much more similar to the situation with Cristiano Ronaldo. An accusation of sexual assault, legal case is very weak for whatever reason and likely going nowhere, an NDA/settlement, and then the alleged victim breaking her silence.
You are assuming the club havent investigated the allegations and evidence and based on their findings made a more informed decision than a bunch of people reading a twitter post and determining his guilt or innocence
I tend to believe her and am appalled by the story but I’m not willing to irrevocably decide his Arsenal future just based on a drunken tweet storm.
