Superior Acuña Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 2 minutes ago, Fak said: I thought this trial was done and he got let off? Quote The former footballer, of Widnes in Cheshire, was due to face trial at a magistrates’ court in 2022 but the case was adjourned after Mrs Barton sent a letter to prosecutors retracting her allegations. A judge then ordered that proceedings be paused over concerns a trial would be unfair to Barton after prosecutors said they did not plan to ask Mrs Barton to give evidence in court. The director of public prosecutions (DPP), Stephen Parkinson, appealed against the decision at the high court in London, with barristers claiming at a hearing that a fair trial could go ahead. In a judgment in June, two senior judges ruled in the DPP’s favour and said Barton should face a trial over the allegations in front of a different judge.

Could just be that people do know what Rogan is like but 1 disagree with you, and more importantly 2 have the tiny amount of autonomy that's needed to listen to podcasts without changing their belief system. We can agree or disagree on the 'danger' of people like Rogan, their intentions, responsibilities as public figures and what it says about people's susceptibility and liberal hysteria, but the point I'm making is that no matter what you think about that, hoying him and Theo Von in with a human trafficker and a man that was held in contempt of Congress is a huge overreach.
