Headteacher who was arrested at his desk on child sex abuse charges and endured year-long court ordeal is cleared by jury in just 15 minutes

www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2834519...just-15-minutes.html

'Complainant, now 20, went to police ten years later after a drinking session
Mr Bird was suspended and subjected to a year-long investigation and trial'

'They retired at 12.41pm on Thursday and came back at 12.56pm.'

'Lancashire Constabulary remains committed to investigating allegations of sexual offences, no matter how historic, and no matter what the role, position and status of the alleged offender, and we would encourage anyone who has been a victim to come forward safe in the knowledge that they will be treated sensitively and professionally.'

Meanwhile try getting a copper to pop over after a burglary...

The totally discredited BBC news are now reporting that police are investigating yet another 'paedophile ring', the second in 2 days. This time 'possible homicide' is reported. Is there any hope the British people will realise just what is happening here and give these evil people and their evidence free accusations the treatment they deserve. Meanwhile the police have given up even pretending to be impartial upholders of the law, they are now attack dogs for a CPS which has been corrupted by an insane ideoligy brokered by Starmer and Saunders.

I really don't think Aunty has a clue what it is,and what it does to get there!

what a dreadful statement for a cooper to make- I wish he was sued for libel :

"Today Det Con Karen Parker of Lancashire Police said: 'Whilst we are disappointed with the outcome of this trial, we of course respect the decision of the jury and I would like to thank them for their consideration of this case."

He should have said "it is good justice was seen to be done"

and this gratuitous claptrap basically saying we lost this one but still come forward and make claims:

"'Lancashire Constabulary remains committed to investigating allegations of sexual offences, no matter how historic, and no matter what the role, position and status of the alleged offender, and we would encourage anyone who has been a victim to come forward safe in the knowledge that they will be treated sensitively and professionally.'

No mention of this by MWT but tipped another teacher/pupil in the same newspaper.
the one he aimed at got four years

two other teachers at another school both had sex with the same pupil, one got 14 months the other 6 monthd. She was 17 !

so why did MWT tweet this one even though it was brought to his attention by another tweeter?

Maybe they should tell that to all those girls in Rochdale (and explain it to their Chief Constable) ?
