Thread Name: BS: Strauss-Kahn. American dirty tricks?
Subject: RE: BS: Strauss-Kahn. American dirty tricks?
Quite a disappointment for you then, bobad, as it must also have been for the brainlessly prejudiced Ron Davies. And if the case does collapse, as now seems inevitable, you might like to note, bobad, that it was not DSK's team of expensive lawyers that dredged up "all sorts of mundane facts on the accuser" but the prosecuters.

I have refrained from posting earlier in this thread because of its ridiculous starting premise and unwarranted title. But I would be interested to know if American Mudcatters are entirely sanguine about a custom whereby innocent people are paraded before the news media in handcuffs, to prejudice public opinion and allow the likes of Ron and bobad to wallow in schadenfreude (the "perp walk" as I think Guiliano enshrined it).

Leadfingers made a highly valid point near the top of the thread. Those who ignored or dismissed it might like to read it again.
