Thread Name: Don McLean's wife files for divorce
Subject: RE: Don McLean's wife files for divorce
Donna's original post didn't say the charges were true. She simply stated that 'if they were true it'd be really terrible'. I can't see anything to criticize in that statement. Anyone is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law hence my use of the word alleged. That is the same for McLean as it is for any other alleged criminal. That doesn't mean though that no-one can speculate about or mention criminal proceedings in process.

I totally disagree though with the post further down from another poster which states "Ain't nobody's business but his - and her's"
I don't know what decade or century some people are still living in but the idea that domestic abuse is solely a matter between a husband and his wife is surely long gone. That was the point I was making!
