The fact it got delayed (not too sure if there was a legitimate reason for this) I felt it could of sent the message out that rape is not a serious crime.
---------------------
I don't really know much about the trial but he's not been charged with rape has he? Wasn't it $ex with someone underage?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
S3x with somebody underage is classified as rape. But he didn't have s3x with her, just groomed and kissed/fondled her I believe

What's the legality of an 18/19 year old boy and a 15 year old girl? Cos I know it goes on yet it's accepted

No idea mate, the law is several shades of grey but its the grooming part that seems to be the difference. I know a fella that groomed 2 13 year old girls. Never met them in person. Got two years for that alone. . When Bill searched his house they found kiddie pictures. All in he got 5 years. Personally I would have roped him up to the nearest tree.

He only pleaded guilty to kissing a 15 year old girl (And grooming her). If it can be proved he did nothing further I don't have a problem with him still playing. I think it is very inappropriate and he is an idiot for doing it but should it ruin his life/career for kissing a 15 year old girl who we don't even know if he knew her age?

If a dog hurts a kid you have it put down.

They should do this with kiddie shufflers..

Let's wait until we know the facts rather than condemn him on the basis of what the red tops print. If a court finds him guilty he'll suffer plenty while banged up.

incorrect....my boy got attacked by a dog last year(granted....I was near by enough to get it off before it could really go at him...so didn't pierce the skin)...court ordered a muzzle and perm on a leash in public.

Kane is Able

Thing that bothered me with this is the delay in the trial. I'm not saying Adam Johnson is the most famous footballer out there but lots were aware of the trial.

The fact it got delayed (not too sure if there was a legitimate reason for this) I felt it could of sent the message out that rape is not a serious crime. If he was suspected for murder would he have been playing the past set of months?

For me there should have been an immediate trial so his name was cleared or prosecuted before being allowed to be in the spotlight again.

==============

Spot on...

Maybe stricter bail conditions?

Sizzle,

Trials are never "immediate"'

================

Maybe not immediate but even that Hatton Garden heist has been taken to court and sentences given out to FOUR men...yet Johnson's case was well before that happened.

An adult kissed a 15 year old girl. It's hardly gonna be top of the list for a fast-tracked trial

its not the delay in proceedings that isn't fair....its the naming and shaming that's unfair before a trial/verdict/plea.

junction8,

================

And when its proved that the girl was lying (i'm talking about over 16 cases here), they're not allowed to realease the false accuser's name to protect her identity - how does that work? .

They should 100% name and shame.

I know you did.

I just followed it with a comment how, even when there is a false accuser, the accused name is in the papers - but the fake accuser's name is protected.
