Innocent until proven guilty...?

He may have been charged with serious sexual offences, but he has not yet been convicted and is entitled to the presumption of innocence. This posting is a liable and both the original poster and Indymedia UK may be held responsible for it. It should be noted that the Police Federation are quite keen (rightly in my view) on protecting the rights of their members through liable actions when defamed by the press.

And if he is convicted I doubt he will be a police officer for long, though the police discipinary process is almost always delayed until court proceedings are complete.
