I see your point Fe2O3Girl. We are all inclined sometimes to knee-jerk reactions. The media frenzy and character assassination surrounding this case (particularly by the Sun) was sickening, bringing out issues totally unconnected to the allegation.

FE203Girl,
I am so pleased that you posted the report that indicates that no case was found against Kelly.
I grow very angry at the lynch-mob mentality we show on this Board sometimes. We are quite prepared, and happily so, to hang a person before they are found guilty, besmirch their reputation, sneer at them, in fact do all the things that WTS does to 'undesirables' without much of a conscience about the matter
Not every man is a pedophile, and not every person who is accused of a crime is guilty. Surely we, who have in many cases had our reputations unfairly shattered by gossip and innuendo, should be prepared take the high road on these cases and await the words 'guilty' or 'not guilty' before we judge a person.
