What the hell…could you imagine a male getting the possible same treatment if the roles were reversed.

NZ teacher Peter Joyce’s settled life was disrupted when a woman he had never met accused him of historic rape. With a unique brand of angry humour, his diary plots the stages of his despair and traces his attempts to find justice in the face of the current insistence that we must “believe the victim”.
Dry Ice is a compelling memoir, but much more. The accusation made the writer a reluctant expert on similar cases from all over the world. He throws light on everything that limits public knowledge of false sexual allegations, from dangerous counselling to flawed statistics, and he exposes police investigation methods as blinkered, inefficient and insensitive.

Did she stitch him up and kiss him better?

I cant decide which photo i like more? The one beside the boat in her undies with cute little nipples showing? The one with her looking like a sweet schollarly prodigee wearing glasses with all the books behind her? Mabye the one in the garden poised with flowers?
What a wonderful advertisment for her these articles are.
She wasnt present at the hearing, a trip to italy was more important – as we can see by her holiday snaps.
Then there’s all this medical stuff that shes written, what a little trinket she is.
Articles reporting that somehow she – got into a fight with her boyfriend, thats not how unprovoked ‘attacks’ are usually described.
One reporter commenting that after she stabbed the man she threw a jam jar at him, ‘you cant get more brittish than that’.
Would that reporter still have a job after making jokes about a man attacking a woman?
Just a little drug induced rampage -one off? According to the Judge.
And yes of course every article finishes with the claim that she is has had a troubled life with a previous boyfring having assaulted her. Unsubstantiated but why would there be any need to question the claims of such a tremendous talent as she is.
Not one article mentioned the condition of the man.
No different to the way our media and just-us sytem operates.

Ain’t that the truth!
Comment by Downunder — Wed 17th May 2017 @ 11:35 am
Whodunit?
Nope.
Who got away with it.
“However Ruka Te Pono Hemopo, 51, was found guilty of wounding the woman with intent to injure her in a May 2, 2013, incident in which her throat was cut. She narrowly avoided serious injury but was scarred when she was about 20 weeks pregnant, a court had heard previously.”
Very emotive.
“Police gave evidence that Hemopo told them that, during an argument with one of the women, he had said if she hated him that much she should cut him, and she did. Then he cut her throat, but not deeply.
But later he claimed she had cut his throat and then her own.”
So no matter what this all started with the female “victim” cutting his throat.
Was the instigator of the physical violence charged?
He had done nothing justifying her act of attempted murder.

The English story about the violent female aspiring heart surgeon was simply apalling. As pcObelix suggested, no amount of ‘talent’ would see a male being treated in such a royal way by any civilized Court for doing similar offending towards a female. If he were lucky enough to be shown the slightest bit of lenience feminist groups would be up in arms demanding the judge be removed from office. However, you can bet the strident anti domestic violence groups will be silent about this violent female. The attitude is similar to that by NZ feminists demanding the right for women to kill men if they feel they were ever abused by them.

The women who wanted to live in Fantasy land.
But this is not The Never Ending Story, no, on the contrary, when pumpkin hour arrives, it will be left to the Phoenix to rise from the ashes.

Well here ia a story closer to home and hot off the press on http://www.stuff.co.nz/world/australia/92710511/prison-officer-sharon-yarnton-plotted-to-murder-husband-after-his-affair-court .
A separating couple had a last meal and went home. He awoke in the car to hear a hissing gas bottle and his sox soaked in gasoline.

Well, for every story a writer, every design an architect, but for a system to fail as such, there is either undisclosed corruption or an acceptance of corruption.
Put more simply, that is weakness and ineptitude.
Comment by Evan Myers — Thu 18th May 2017 @ 7:29 am
@8 so, if corrupt people did not show weakness in enforcing their system, you’d see signs of brutally, in our case say, suicide, pillage through child support, and various other forms of escape or avoidance.
Isn’t it interesting then, how they advertise the ineptitude as success, but we let them do it, and people are happy to get paid to help.

The justice system in the UK is even worse than in NZ and should be a warning to us all. Remember the story of the woman who accused a guy of groping her in a busy station and very nearly had an innocent man jailed for years out of crazy spite regardless of the evidence and remember the enthusiasm with which the cops pursued him? Remember the ongoing historical abuse witch hunt? It will arrive here sometime soon, you can count on that.

You might be right Doug

Fantastic story
Why do people stay so long in bullshit marriages anyway, and oh, please spare the “I was doing it for the kids” routine haha they wouldn’t be that stupid.

Have many people watched the Doco “MY name is …. and I am innocent!
I find it very insightful, especially when it shows the corrupt insight to the PO LICE agenda that has propagated in the hierarchy for so long. That must be having palpitations gal-our.
Yes spelling is correct thank you.

Lastly
The case to the right of your screen about George Gwaze was absolutely an a outstanding piece of first rate journalism and research, just shows if your black then you are up against it. The Myopic gene pool of white male so called middle class detectives. Jesus they are so dumb.
I’m white and no class, just white. But I am not dumb like the CIB.
