Prosecution Miranda Moore QC first read an impact statement from the woman indecently assaulted by DLT in mid 90s...
Prosecution says victim not seeking compensation or legal costs...

Defence said that DLT and wife had to sell house to pay to defend himself...
Defence then addressed judge about possible starting points for sentence. "This single offence...does not cross custody threshold"...Defence said he thinks a "conditional discharge" would be most appropriate sentence. Not a fine.

I wonder if some of these cases shouldn't fall under the remit of 'Restorative Justice'? In that way, the accused could meet the accuser, acknowledge his/her offences and between them decided what would be a 'fair' outcome, rather than going down the route of lengthy, costly trials..... I know that there are a great many serious cases where a trial is the only...

I'm with Chili here ( 11:23) No one can say that the CPS didn't make a thorough of trying to get him sent down. Lets hope it all over for him now and they don't have another bite of the cherry.
If anyone doubts the value of RJ practices, have a read of this, it's quite lengthy but it shows what can be achieved.

I wonder if homosexual women are more outraged at the thought of a woman being groped by a man, than if they were groped by another woman.
If I'd turned round and slapped every fella that'd had a grope, quick feel or squeeze, I'd be spinning like a top.

Can't say I've ever felt that I've been sexually assaulted though. Perhaps that says something about me. :o/
khandro - as a bisexual woman (and a very active one at that :-)) i can assure you i wouldn't give a *** who was doing the groping, it would be very wrong. what a stupid, old fashioned and out of touch comment that is. and btw.....i have only ever been groped by dirty old men who do not know how to behave in public, or private. like you, it seems!

I'm sorry about that, I hope things improve.
Feeling a womans breasts doesn't warrant a prison sentence

Women who it happens to and who feel offended should simply either slap the guys face or knee him in his MTV

Incident instantly over and dealt with without the need for a costly trial
