Of course Davis would ask a stupid question he's supposed to know the answer to. Why would he do any research when he can make himself look like an idiot instead?
i think it's more about informing the public information is being kept from them.
Him asking this caused me to seek out the article.
Letbys conviction never really sat right with me with the information present in the british media. less so now i have read it
edit: having read some of the discussion around this on reddit i have moved back from the "maybe she didn't do it" to "she probably did" but even still it's all very circumstantial
There's no conspiracy here. She's being accused of a crime and there's going to be a trial. The prosecution have to present enough evidence to convict
All that's happening here is that the media are not allowed to report on a trail that's currently ongoing which is standard practice. In the US they do it differently because there are different country, and that's fine too.
There was no reason for him to bring this up other than I don't know some kind of weird political game that he thinks he's playing it's very unclear who this performance was for.
She's been found guilty of a crime. They're doing a retrial on one of the counts but she's been convicted of seven murders.
