given time the agenda of the lying left liberal media always gets exposed. Problem is they dig in harder and move to their next target. Watch out! They are more than happy to use innocent people in order to promote their hatred. Surely Morrison will have the guts to defund the abc at some stage.

Let us not forget that 12 jurors found George Pell
guilty. It was also - a UNANIMOUS verdict.

It is equally important to note that George Pell has NOT been
found innocent. The High Court judgement unfortunately
decided there was enough " reasonable doubt,"
in the allegations.

No wonder the statue of Justice wears a blindfold.

Steele, you forgot to include the whole quote. This comes after the passage you copied and pasted: "With respect to each of the applicant's convictions, there was, consistently with the words the Court used in Chidiac v The Queen (1991) 171 CLR 432 at 444 and M v The Queen (1994) 181 CLR 487 at 494, "a significant possibility that an innocent person has been convicted because the evidence did not establish guilt to the requisite standard of proof".

This is a good decision, and makes one a little less worried that vigilantes and mobs can send you to jail. We're seeing too many people make lurid accusations, which they then demand must be believed, because as a victim their rights are superior to the perpetrator's.

I'd love to see your attitude if you were wrongfully accused of something by a witness who appeared credible. I'm sure it wouldn't be "believe the victim".

SR,

The impression that I got was that you, Paul, and most left whingers believed he was guilty the moment he was charged and I never expected this to change when he was exonerated.

That the high court found unanimously 7-0 that there was insufficient evidence is a severe rebuke of the 2 of 3 appellate judges that held up the previous conviction.

I argued from day one that there was insufficient evidence based on similar cases where prosecutions based on a single witness were generally thrown out of court.

It is not the first time by any means that a jury has got it wrong and judgements based on emotion and not fact are often wrong.

thought your hatred would bring you out on this one Foxy. Must be terrible to know your ideologies have had a tiny bit of light put on them and are now shredded. Of course no one knows if the man is 100% innocent. It is obvious to any reasonable person that he should never have be proven beyond doubt. I thought even you socialist would be able to understand the importance of proof being needed.

ttbn just exclaimed:

"Whoopee! Great news. What happened to Pell could happen to any of us ........"

What ......... being convicted of being a paedophile?

Not me! Maybe ttbn and mates might be but definitely not me!
