Alex Da Silva is arrested yet charges dropped

I certainly hope it's not true, but if so, definitely glad it was stopped. Also hope that if it does prove to be true, someone takes a closer look as to why previous charges were dropped.
 
Upsetting news. But let's also remember the basic premise of innocent-til-proven-otherwise...
 
definitely sam, I was very careful to say If. certainly an extremely sensitive subject in my book, so try to be careful not to let emotions override logic. :)

Yes, I saw that... I was just making general comment. In fact, had made it much earlier in the day but for some reason it didn't "take".

I've experienced having been assumed to be guilty of something serious that I could never have done, and it is most unpleasant. It's very easy to get the energy of a "lynching jury" going, much like a hideous game of telephone gone very wrong.

There is no way to know from our removed perspectives what is behind the reports that led to Alex's arrest. It is hard enough to get to the bottom of that when one is close to a situation. And the judicial and police process is far from perfect...

Thankyou samina,
Apparently, (after reading some boards) there are those that feel that since he is accused, he must be guilty.

Many people adamantly believe that "where there is smoke there's fire". And it is not necessarily so.

Innocent until proven guilty is all well and good, but if I had a teenage daughter, I wouldn't be leaving her alone with him.:rolleyes:
