Lee Rigby Murder Trial.

[10ClarionSt]

I'm not surprised that the defendants have pleaded not guilty. They'll do anything to prolong the agony for the family and gain any publicity they can.

[B00]

I dunno how they can expect to use that plea.

"Wasn't me guv, I wasn't even there"...???

[sir.prize]

How can they possibly plead not guilty? Didn't one of them have blood on his hands at the scene? It is so so wrong that they can play games with the court. What chance has any lawyer in defending these creatures?

[Svejk]

Its in the Al Queda handbook. Tie up the legal system for as long as possible. Sadly, I don't know whst we can do about it.

[sara3]

did they submit a defence statement?

[douglas9401]

I don't suppose there's a chance that they're just a couple of psychotic thugs hiding behind the skirts of the religion of peace to justify their base blood lust is there?
Get them locked up in general population and allow nature to take it's course as it did with a notorious one time Glasgow hard man jailed for the brutal, sadistic murder of a teenager a while back.

chrissakes readers everyone is entitled to a fair trial

one of the ways of getting this is to plead not guilty
[it doesnt mean 'I dont think I did it' - it means show us your evidence]

if they pleaded guilty then no evidence would be heard or tested
and sentence woul dbe passed


it is the only way they can be heard and put their views

which presumbably is that they are Muslim Martyrs etc

[nungate]

Presumably they are doing it for the publicity - wouldn't be a good idea for the press and media to ignore the Trial and merely mention the verdict and sentence (if there is one) in the News? Starve them of the publicity, do not give them the oxygen they need to keep their perverted views in the public eye
