wtf ever happen to the thomas partey’s case? like it has been a year plus and the investigation is still on going ? what the fuck are they doing? at least give us an update
They never got enough evidence to be able to charge him. It’s still technically under investigation and it’ll never be officially “dropped” but I think it’s all but over at this point.
In footballing terms only, that’s the part I have trouble with. I think he probably did it because I believe the women, and I really want him out of the club, but I’m never sure what a club should do in these situations. If they suspended him the second the accusations came forward, he would have been out of the club for a year and a half now with no end in sight. If the investigation is never dropped, but the police don’t have enough evidence to charge or drop (at this point), is his career over? Should it be the same for just some random guy that works at a Tesco in Mansfield? He’s not allowed to work until the investigation is dropped?
Yeah in the most cynical way. The whole thing is incredibly stupid. Thats why the club were right to do it the way they did. Just ignore it until they have no choice.
Updating the public is irrelevant. The accused, the victim and just judicial system don’t care if the general public feel uninformed on progress and nor should they
This is incorrect. One of the most quoted phrases in case law goes something like “Justice must not only be done, but must also be seen to be done.” (Rex v Sussex Justices)
The judicial system has a duty not only to be just, but also to demonstrate to the public at large that it is being just. That’s why even if no wrongdoing has occurred, if there’s a way people might think it has occurred, the justice system has failed.

Wasn’t it a question of jurisdiction or extradition from Spain?

Interesting quote didn’t know that, thanks.
I think it overestimates the powers of the justice system. You can’t prevent someone posting something online and it going viral, surely?
How would it stop people thinking something?
