I think you're right. Maybe whoever moderates the board should delete the thread.
I imagine whoever is moderating the thread has been advised what is suitable or not?
I certainly wont mind if my posts are deleted or withheld 
One thing I thought was a bit odd in the Mail account of court was that the boy's friend in the restaurant described Mr king as " a famous DJ".  Is this actually what he was known for at this time? because if so, it passed me by. |

I was quite disturbed..not that I know what the trurh is these days..that the media mentioned previous convictions.
I though that was forbidden.
But then again..British Law has been turned on it's head. |

Good spot, Silent Minority.
It got me thinking about the Daimler... In the 70s, Daimler cars were exactly the same as Jaguar models but with a Daimler logo. If JK pulled alongside someone, it wouldn't be apparent that the car was a Daimler, which is a lesser known brand than Jaguar. If fact, it wouldn't be apparent even if you sat inside.
Daimler isn't a very well known make and didn't sell many compared to Jaguar equivalents. I conclude that this is a contrived attempt to inject some credibility into the account by including a "small but significant" detail which is very unlikely to have been possible to notice at the time.
I'm afraid, JK, that it looks like the cops or their allies have been suggesting things to your accusers again.

They may be referring to a Daimler DS420 limousine - these were very distinctive and very recognisable cars and could not be mistaken for much else. They also could be had with a drinks cabinet. This may just be bad reporting of court description of the car by the media. They are sometimes mistakenly called Daimler Sovereign limousines and apart from cringes from motoring pedants like myself this slight detail maybe papered over!

Now that would make sense about the age. That's interesting about him using a chauffeur. It is a pity that court material isn't publicly accessible. But do any countries actually do that?
(Had another look at the article and realised that I was wrong about the bike: it wasn't a BMX but a Chopper. At any rate, a childish mode of transport for his supposed child labour job at Claridge's.) |
