[News] David Duckenfield attempts to get his prosecution stayed.

[Falmerfourtickets]

This may have gone under the radar, but last week an application was made to have the prosecution against David Duckenfield for manslaughter ‘stayed’. This was turned down by a judge at Preston Crown court , where the trial will take place on January 14th. Which is the same date incidentally, as Andrew Hill will start his trial at the Old Bailey.

Yes, I did read it, but fortunately, the judge at Preston turned it down.
There probably was no good legal reason to stay the trial.

Probably hoped for a judge who was a "homer" (mason) and would favour an incompetent ex-copper. Fortunately they are few and far between these days.

The lodge is still strong. Be very surprised if any action is taken against this spineless weasel.
