Stokesie trial summing up comments

All you have seen is a bit of out of sequence video footage. The court has seen it all.

 

Dunning-Kruger syndrome.

The more you know about something the less you realise you know.
The less you know about something, the more you *think* you know.

 

Just find it incredibly arrogant and worrying at the same time that people have such strong opinions based on snippets of information.

It's like walking down a street and turning a corner to see someone punching someone else... let's even add chasing after and then punching before someone jumps in with that...you have no idea what prompted that, what context, nothing... so for a few on here it'd be guilty without question.

The jury has been given the available evidence in full and has sat and listened to it all, yet people on here and no doubt countrywide think they know better. Do you really think news sites are going to focus on anything other than the juicy bits that will pull in paper sales/ viewers? And in addition to this, people seem to selectively forget that the co-defendant admitted striking someone with a bottle in the run up to this.

Embarrassing really.

 

Bonkers - look I reckon he’s daft for getting himself in that situation and I imagine the cricket authorities will want to look at it - bringing game into disrepute etc, but if anyone doubts the power of the media just look at reaction to this - he’d been found guilty a long time ago

 

If it had been the reverse decision and people were kicking off about the decision then i'd have said exactly the same thing.
