It is now guilty until proved innocent with the trial by media brigade.
Only JK knows if he is innocent of the crimes that took place. As for myself, I am one of millions of the general public that are supposed to go with a lot of the tabloid newspapers views that he is guilty and is supposedly a 'vile pervert'.
A friend of mine (who does regular quizzes/DJ'ing now, which I have participated in)worked with JK at Radio 1 in the late 70's/early 80's and had nothing but positive things to say about him. When the allegations were reported, my friend assumed they would be thrown out, however, when the guilty verdicts came in, the first thing he said was 'It is a stich up'.
Since then, having watched that awful Channel 4 documentary on JK and learning more about the case through this website, I am totally convinced it is as well. How can you prove that you watched live, the US Open Final in 1985, yet not be allowed to submit this evidence in court.
Also I do believe that if their wasn't thousands (if not millions) of people in the same position of false convictions (unfortunately not able to do anything), then JK wouldn't be lodging an appeal to help them as well. I could quite imagine if JK's appeal is successful, then the floodgates could well open.
I'll climb off my soapbox now.

Well actually Godiver-although it's not my personal taste-and despite the fact I was fairly promiscuous at 14 and did have sex with people a bit older ( who I'd dread to think may have got into trouble over it although I cannot remember who initiated what)..one must remember that in Germany the legal age is actually 14 and Japan & Italy 13 and even in some US states like New Mexico it's 14.
I always find that a very difficult concept to understand-where a person could be called a peadophile in one country but not another. And even stranger in the USA where it changes from state to state. It's a bit like being called a housebreaker in one but not the other !
Obviously the best course- always obey the law no matter what you think !
Mind you-it doesn't stop Ronnie Wood at 61 running off with his 20 year old girlfriend and you can imagine most blokes saying " go for it.."
Sex !..the one thing that makes the world go round and still the greatest mystery !!

Thank you for your vote of confidence.
I would say that the most important requirement for all trials, before they proceed, is for the prosecution to provide proof that 1) a crime has been committed, and 2) the accused person is guilty of that crime. In many cases there is no proof of either.
In 1935 Viscount Sankey ruled that "Throughout the web of the English Criminal Law one golden thread is always to be seen, that it is the duty of the prosecution to prove the prisoner's guilt subject to what I have already said as to the defence of insanity and subject also to any statutory exception. If, at the end of and on the whole of the case, there is a reasonable doubt, created by the evidence given by either the prosecution or the prisoner, as to whether the prisoner killed the deceased with a malicious intention, the prosecution has not made out the case and the prisoner is entitled to an acquittal. No matter what the charge or where the trial, the principle that the prosecution must prove the guilt of the prisoner is part of the common law of England and no attempt to whittle it down can be entertained." (Woolmington vs DPP)
Unfortunately, several changes to the law and to the rights of the individual have indeed whittled it down, to the point where that famous principle no longer exists.
Maybe you should approach Citizens Advice regarding your stolen computers. If the police have no grounds for seizing your computers then, in my opinion, they have stolen them - unless you gave written permission for them to be taken.
You can demand the return of your property. If the police refuse without good reason, then you can begin action with the help of Citizens Advice who have lawyers attached to their service. You could also approach the Police Complaints Commission. However, I did make a complaint to the PCC regarding the actions of one police force, to be told that "The PCC cannot take action against the police unless the force in question agrees to it." This was quite baffling.
I don't subscribe to conspiracy theories, and am not sure that there really is a NWO. I do know that we have a government who are precisely mirroring the policies of the Nazis in 1930s Germany. They deny it, but step by step they follow the same pattern. They will argue that the dehumanising of people on the sex offenders register is nothing like the dehumanising of the Jews, because sex offenders have committed crimes. In fact, the picture is much larger. British Law used to be straight forward. It treated all people equally; we were all innocent until proven guilty, but if proven guilty we paid a penalty and were then released back into society. However, now the law has many shadowy and blurred areas. It applies to different people in different ways.
Hitlers party used the media to help manipulate public opinion against the Jews. Labour use the media to help manipulate public opinion against people accused of sex offences.
Jews had no right to a fair trial. Changes in the law have removed the need for evidence to prove allegations of sex offences - resulting in unfair trials.
Jews had to be registered and were limited to where they could live and work. Same today with sex offenders.
The net is ever widening regarding who can be included in the sex offenders register. There is even guilt by association. The nazi party had the same policy.
First they came for the Jews, then Gypsies, then Jehovas Witnesses, and eventually anyone who did not fit the ethnic profile.
What excuse did the Nazi party use to justify their actions?
They claimed that such people were a threat to either children or national security.
They also used the claim that the Jews abused their children by the ritual of circumcision as a means of controlling opinions.
It is all so familiar. And there is much more to come.
Paranoid?
If only I was!

Of course you are right and I wasn't implying that Ronnie Wood was doing anything illegal.
I really should have made it clearer-it was more a comment on the varying degrees of outrage about sex.
Ronnie's 40 years old than his girlfriend..no problem for me...I couldn't give a damn but some of the great sex moralisers would be outraged. Not the tabloids of course as in this case-it's all good copy.
