Message: [QUOTE="Super Freak, post: 3001109, member: 8536"] The problem is that evidence could be false evidence. False accusations are common which leads to false evidence being used. There have even been cases of police creating evidence to suit a narrative. I'm not saying that's what is happening here, but these are possibilities you simply cannot rule out. One thing that's been clear from past cases is that the police don't even need much to charge. The biggest reasons why sexual assault cases mostly don't lead to convictions is lack of evidence and no witnesses. Just because JDB has been charged and it's been taken to court, it does not mean they even have anything that can lead to a conviction. They just need to believe they can convict him. An accusation that's led to a charge but still an accusation. Sexual assault cases can take 2-3 years to finalize. It could be 2021 before JDB even learns his fate. If he is suspended and it takes that amount of time to learn his fate and he ends up being found not guilty, which is likely, he's just been robbed several years of his career over an accusation. Like I said before, it's a road the NRL does not want go down. It can lead to much bigger problems for them down the road. He still has the right to a presumption of innocence and allowed to continue working in his profession. [/QUOTE]
