It's blatently unfair - as is the "new" law of double jeopardy (which allows people to be tried over and over again until the prosecutors get the result that they want !)

This morning we heard that Gary Glitter has been jailed in Vietnam. Now, whether he is really guilty or not we cannot say - but he most definately has been persued by selected media (with rumour, innuendo and allegation) to the point where they were hardly likely to give up until he has been convicted of something !
