then backups come in, so that there are always 12 total
but they can't PICK who they want, and they can't keep cycling until they like everyone on the jury, but they have some leeway, on the prosecution and defence
also, it doesn't matter
Tommy was a journalist, covering something the the media wasn't... and he got arrested
yes he broke whatever shit law it was
yeah they can choose to remove someone but I think theres some speicial request they have to go through or something
but still shit law and yall should be really upset right now
also this is disturbing if true
basically judge knew TR would be in danger, but didn't care... "so what"
yeah i saw that... its slightly out of context but was stupid to say
Enforcing that law in that case is ilegitimate
because 1: There was no reason why the public should not know that the grooming happened
and 2: I dont think Tommy was informed of this
hes saying he doesnt care because he will be in protective custody the whole time
"you could be put into protective custody"
What’s the difference between all the journalists outside the court when count dankula was being tried and the grooming gang case?
not that he would
I'd understand a gag law being enforced in a critical matter
like an inminent terrorist attack or something
I think the blackout was that there were so many defendants that they couldn't try them all at once and didn't want the outcome of the first trial affecting the second one
hence the blackout
but still, how would TR know he couldn't do what he did
he was media
he was covering an event
and he got arrested
prior record/shit be damned
If he had been informed he wouldnt be in jail
he knew, because thats what he was arrested for in the first place
right
I get that
I dont think he knew
he is not stupid
if he knew he wouldnt have reported on it
and I concede he probably did break whatever shit law / command / whatever, but it's still wrong
maybe the first time... but not the second
He didnt look like he had any idea that the law was in place for that case
I get what you're saying wacka, but he's done a ton of shit that he could have since been arrested for if that's true
its kinda like YT, you don't know what would cause you to be arrested...
he hasnt done the thing that he was expressly told not to do since he was arrested for the same thing tthough
He and his lawyer know exactly what he can do and say without getting arrested
