United pilot arrested at LHR

[Jox]

I accept that this is rumours and news.

Shiftkeying has made an intelligent post; Court case at Uxbridge Magistrates on the 20th. Case is unlikely to be dealt with there and will most probably be referred to the Crown Court to be heard at a date and time to be determined in the future.

Arrested - Innocent

Charged - Innocent

On bail - Innocent

Convicted - Guilty!

Speculation - Unhelpful and destroys reputations & families.

Please can we wait for all self righteous assassinations and speculations until our colleague has been dealt with by the appropriate authority in accordance with the law. That is his right, until such time that a case has been proved.

We have all seen pages on similar incidents only to find out that in the end that something untoward, unexplained or subsequently proved has resulted in no conviction in accordance with the law.

I urge you all, keep your powder dry until an outcome is apparent. If he is acquitted, no problem then, if he is found guilty then you are welcome to your opinions, until then .
