GUILTY UK - Tia Sharp, 12, New Addington, London, 3 Aug 2012 #4

It's so sad that the british media just pick something up and drop it just as quickly. Tia and April comes to mind

What can they report on? There's nothing new in either case, or if there is it can't be reported - I'm sure when Hazell appears in court it will be covered.

That's what we are saying. He was due in court yesterday (Monday) to enter a plea, but not a word. If the hearing had have been postponed the press would be allowed to report it, but they haven't......

Where did you see the date was yesterday? I did see a report somewhere he was due in court on 15th.

(not that it makes much difference, it hasn't happened either time!)

eta - I'm not saying they shouldn't report events, but I was replying in the wider sense to a post saying the media drop stories like Tia and April. I don't believe they have "dropped" the stories - they just don't have anything to write about, there's a difference.

The 37-year-old of New Addington is due to appear at the Old Bailey for a plea and case management hearing later this year.


Strange that there's no explanation as to why it didn't take place yesterday though.

 

[Cherwell]

There may be some complication which the media are not allowed to report, as in the Sian O'Callaghan case.

Ah thanks.

I only checked the Metro http://www.metro.co.uk/news/908374-...-by-bin-bag-as-stuart-hazell-appears-in-court - suspect whoever wrote it was still thinking about writing 15 August a line or so previously.

Interesting that the news of two police officers being disciplined broke today.. wonder if that has anything to do with why the hearing was delayed?

I wonder if the reason for the delay of SHs hearing is because of the second autopsy that was carried out on behalf of his defence team ?

If his lawyers are allowed 3 months to review the evidence and construct a case for him, then perhaps it is 3 months from the date when they are in possession of all the evidence, which would be when they received the results from the second autopsy.

Guess that's possible, but surely the press would be permitted to report this? Is it possible that the hearing did in fact go ahead, but nothing was reported?

 

[Alyce]

Totally agree Moby........ I can see the autopsy being a reason for the delay of the hearing, but I can see no reason at all why the press could not just have said that this had happened.

Will have another search round and see what can be found today

 

[MobyBluff]

that Christine has now been granted bail for the third time! WTH?

And the third person has as well

[MobyBluff]

.....buy why I wonder, can't he yet enter a plea? Surely he knows if he is guilty or not?

No further action will be taken against the grandmother of 12-year-old Tia Sharp over the schoolgirl's death, the Metropolitan Police has said.

So that throws a few theories into the trash can.......

:what: I was genuinely not expecting that

 

[Pisces Cloud]

I never thought the grandmother was involved with the murder and so this doesn't surprise me.

It could mean that they still think she may have been involved, but they cannot produce any evidence.
