Shame this sex abuse case hasn't got more prominence.

Well done to the victims and all the authorities in bringing him to book.

[ummmm]

I wonder how many more victims there were over the years?

It has just Google, "Reginald Davies abused the girls" and see for yourself.

Thanks anyway for posting the Daily Mail link, but you are aware aren't you that by doing so others will deny these disgusting crimes ever happened and it only the Daily Mail sensationalising and telling lies, so as to encourage others to panic?

[ummmm]

How about just commenting on the thread posted and not keep twisting things to suit your own agenda?

And that, unlike you, is just what I did.

I don't suppose for one minute you noticed that the OP did not ask a specific question, so a particular type of answer was not needed.

I cannot be held responsible if the post that I entered seemed to touch certain particular sensitive nerves.

[ummmm]

The thread has nothing to do with your beloved Daily Mail. That just happens to be where hc got the link from.

[dotty.]

if this man had been convicted of these crimes before 1974 oz wouldn't have allowed him to emigrate there, he'll not be allowed back now will he?

[hc4361]

He won't be allowed back in to Australia, no.

On the thread about the Rochdale case I said it had always gone on, as this case shows.
It also shows that many victims didn't come forward at the time for many various and complicated reasons.

AOG, of course I can google 'Reginald Davies' now I have read about him, but I wonder if the case will be reported in tomorrow's printed version?

Obviously my answer proved too subtle for you, I took the opportunity to address the use of a Daily Mail link when there were a number of others that could have been used, hence the headline the poster chose.

SHAME THIS SEX ABUSE CASE HASN'T GOT MORE PROMINENCE.

I then took the opportunity to sarcastically get back at the 'Anti- Daily Mail Brigade'.

[hc4361]

Actually, AOG, I can't find any other reports on this case.

Well done Mr Blackadder, excellent.
I must be honest and say I wouldn't have recognised your subtle sarcasm if it painted itself purple and danced naked on a harpsicord singing subtle sarcasm is here again."

[ummmm]

I know exactly what you were doing, AOG, but this isn't your thread.

[FredPuli43]

Sorry, I missed the sarcasm too. If you are going in for self-parody,aog, will you please give us a sign by, for example putting [Joke] after it ?

The case does provide an example of how girls don't report sexual assault, but never forget.

[Gromit]

Just came across AOG's strange posts here.

He failed to support the authorites here for their good work. And especially failed to support the victims.

He has his own agenda, but on this occassion it is difficult to fathom just what that is.

[hc4361]

I see other news agencies have picked the story up but it is no headliner. Why not?
The facts are mind boggling - raped very young children 30 - 50 years ago; moved to Australia; confronted by some of his victims many years later; extradited to UK for trial; found guilty.

Why is this not headline news praising the police, CPS, the extradition process; the victims?

[hc4361]

Anyone got today's DM? Is this story in the paper?

[anotheoldgit]

ummmm

/// I know exactly what you were doing, AOG, but this isn't your thread. ///

Wow! now that would be boring if only the OP was allowed to answer their own threads.

[ummmm]

You know what I meant.

[emmie]

doesn't seem to be in today's paper.
