Woman freed of charge of murdering husband after sleep study
Our thanks to a supporter for this from Oz. A strange case, not least because the man was found dead in his car “near Mount Disappointment”. Did the wife have a knife to hand in the car, and with what purpose? And what are we to make of this (Serdar Caliskan was the husband)?
“At a directions hearing in January, prosecutors said they were seeking the views of Serdar Caliskan’s relatives in Turkey before they could make a decision on the case.”
Of what earthly relevance do the views of the killed man have to this case?

Towards Justice: Responding to Past Harms
Our thanks to Elizabeth for this. She writes:
“Mike, thought you might have time to watch this. I want to understand why police like CC Simon Bailey don’t seem to realise a need to protect innocent accused. Never so much as mentioned once, whilst convictions source of pride.”

Girl, 14, guilty of school stabbing attempted murder
Didcot school ‘shocked’ after former teacher Catherine Pearl jailed for two counts of sexual activity with a girl as an adult abusing a position of trust, on no fewer than 10 occasions.
Our thanks to Geoff for this. We are mystified as to why she wasn’t told she was being given a suspended sentence, and was very lucky to not receive an immediate custodial sentence. Maybe because her victim was a girl, not a boy?

Freya Webster: “My middle-class mother beat me, my siblings and even my father to within an inch of our lives… she once walloped me with a walking stick, but despite everything I still love her.”
James Esses: “Exclusive. I just exposed how the British Psychological Society has been captured by ‘anti-racist’ racists.”
Matthew Syed’s article for The Times about the Washington DC collision
Matthew Syed is a Times journalist. Two days ago his article on the Washington DC collision Trump’s scapegoating threatens the entire basis of aviation safety (£) was published, excoriating The Donald’s comments on DEI initiatives at the FAA, and casting serious doubt on the possibility that those initiatives could have been responsible for the collision.
People who don’t read The Times tend to assume it’s a right-leaning paper. They couldn’t be more wrong. The best description I’ve ever heard of it is that it’s “achingly liberal”, as are many (most?) of its readers, and the comments sections reliably reflect that. The paper has employed for many years the odious feminist (I repeat myself) Caitlin Moran – affectionately nicknamed “Moron” by colleagues, I’ve been told – as a twice-weekly columnist. She and her partner have two daughters. In her book How to be a Woman she revealed that she became pregnant during a holiday in Cyprus, not having used any contraception. She had an abortion and revealed the child she’d killed was male.
Comments on the article were almost all supportive and predictably anti-Trump for voicing his opinion that DEI initiatives were probably the cause of the accident. I pitched in with some comments of my own, supporting Trump’s opinion, and for my troubles got some flak and a little support.
I understand that journalists frequently read the comments on their pieces, one that comes to mind is Julie Burchill when she writes for The Spectator, using a pseudonym but everyone knows it’s her. But few journalists do this, so I was surprised that Matthew Syed had replied to a commenter, and I replied to his comment (below). I’ve had no response from him, what are the chances?
