How can one respect the beneficiaries of crime ?

[paula1919] 08/3/2023 22:18

Disgusting disrespect Spikey.

Spikey j
what a nasty insensitive piece of work you are,you may have a grudge against individuals but you could be a bit more sensitive and show respect to this persons close family.
Firstly the name will become common knowledge soon and until then show respect.
Oh i suppose everybody who posts on here is neo99 grow up you imbecile.

Don't get me wrong David, but had I lost money in WRN and Whetstone you can bet your cotton socks I'd be wishing them ill.

[filthylucre01] 04/3/2023 09:12

Unless the pro wrn poster states the name of the person that has allegedly died, I will find it extremely hard to believe.

ALS - that rings a bell too, but I can't find the source. I'm sure none of us would wish any of them (or their families) ill health.

David

I seem to recall that Dougie was excused from appearing but I may be wrong.

[spikeyj] 24/2/2023 11:34

i like your question at 08:19, david, although i don’t know the answer.

common sense suggests that since a POCA order is about identifying
& controlling *assets* that may be proceeds of crime, [edit: & thereby
attempting to preserve prospects of meaningful restitution] rather than
about identifying & controlling an individual, POCA should remain in force
- since fairly obviously the death of an individual does not make any
difference as to whether or not those assets originated as proceeds of
crime. but common sense & the law are at best rather distant cousins.

[spikeyj] 24/2/2023 11:20

ah, thanks david, that’s helpful detail / clarification.

[davidkip] 24/2/2023 11:00

"All five of you will be expected to appear in person on that day."

If anyone has time on their hands they could check with the records at Southwark CC and see if all five did indeed appear in person on 17/11/22, as the judge instructed. I've not seen any coverage of that.

"Spurway and Biggar attended court while the others appeared via video."

Entirely possible ill-health was a factor for one or more of the accused. Plus getting anywhere via train at the moment is pretty tough.

[saracen3] 24/2/2023 10:44

Doug his own grave maybe.

[spikeyj] 24/2/2023 10:24

david, i think the “incorrectR21; bit in the press release you cited on 10th feb
is that doug ware didn’t appear before the magistrates, only the other four.

? so maybe one of the five was already pretending to be a bit dead even then?

[davidkip] 24/2/2023 08:19

What happens when there's a POCA order (several of the five are subject to such orders) when a person passes away before they are convicted / exonerated? Do the assets get released to the estate of the deceased? Or does a judge make a ruling as to whether there is reasonable cause for the seizure to remain?

[sweet karolina2] 23/2/2023 13:54

St Peter is probably hoping he gets pensioned off and replaced by someone under 2000 years old before he has to do AE's account.

[spikeyj] 23/2/2023 12:53

on the plus side, it would save the taxpayer a lot of money
if all five just topped themselves and left behind some notes
of apology and explanation. unlikely, but one can hope eh?

(& then they would face an even higher court…)

[antondec] 23/2/2023 09:43

hmmmmmm

What's the betting that if one of the accused has died (nothing proven yet),the other four all say the deceased was the violent, coercive mastermind behind the whole thing......
