Where have the two Wimbledon school crash cases gone?

[oobster]

As per title, there was one thread in SP&L with the title "Wimbledon school crash deaths - medical episodes & insurance"

Another thread with the title "Wimbledon school crash" was in NP&E.

Both locked & moved with "nothing to see here".

Subjudice I’d say.

Possibly. Both threads have been moved off the public forums for now while we look into it.

There is a lot of discussion around attempts by the accused’s legal team to have public threads removed across various platforms. Clearly, anything genuinely libellous, prejudicial, or defamatory should be removed. Equally though, there is a legitimate public interest in discussing a case of this magnitude, particularly given the wider questions now being raised about the original investigation and subsequent handling of the incident. I would hope that PH remains balanced and resists any heavy-handed attempts to suppress lawful and reasonable discussion.

I agree. Particularly an interesting story because I believe some police have been disciplined for their involvement in the investigation.

If we are collectively interested in the outcome of a case then sometimes it’s better to allow a pause in commentary.

Personally I’d hate to be the person that accidentally influenced a juror into making an unbalanced decision.

There is a level of free speech, but it also comes with responsibility.
