I am seriously still sat here wondering why a number of people are still attacking the whistleblower and supporting the people who comitted the crime. I guess the friendship is just too strong. Its not enough to be caught for what they did, but, try lay the blame or reason onto someone else. Never their own fault. Whatever happend to having to take responsibility to your own actions.
Makes good sense to me.

I have read the threads but until now have refrained from posting as it’s none of my business and I only post now because as a forum member I believe I am able to post “my opinion”.
I can only make my conclusions from what I have read here. I think it’s fair to say that a sexual assault took place as it has been stated that the alleged offender HAS admitted this to the police. Irrespective of who the victim was NO woman deserves to be treated in this way and I hope that justice is seen to be done.
With regards to Kev again it’s now obvious that he made a mistake, how serious that mistake was is up to us as individuals to decide, it has since been rectified and as far as I can make out that matter is now closed, my concern would be Kev’s health issues and this has seemed to have been forgotten along the way, I don’t know all the exact dates but was Kev’s health an issue at the time the mistake was made? Who knows? As mental health issues come upon us without most people realising.
At the end of the day what I am trying to say is I wish Kev a full recovery and to be able to get his life on track again, and to Laxie I hope she gets to see justice done as imo these 2 people are good people who deserve better (but then what do I know?).

Makes good sense to me.
but that's not really the case is it (apart from what seems to be a small minority)? Let's clear one thing up - there seem to be some assumptions that it is only from Jane having found information on kev's computer that the existence of the video and the alleged crime came to light. That's not the case, and all involved are aware of that, so there's no actual 'whistleblowing' on that one. With regard to the issue of Brendan's money, I agree once Jane had found that information (wherever she found it) reporting it was the correct thing to do, but as I understand it it wasn't actually reported to anyone in a position of authority or ability to sort the issue out (at least in the first instance) so again, was this really 'whistleblowing'?
The concern I have raised on this thread (and I can't speak for anyone else) is solely in relation to the actions taken that led to information coming to light. I have expressed the view that I think Jane should no longer continue as a moderator on the forum due to the fact that I believe she has breached the privacy of a number of members of blonde - it does not automatically follow - and is in fact very far from the truth - that I therefore 'support' the very bad things that other people have done here. Again, the people that matter know that.
There is an old saying 'curiosity killed the cat'. If you are going to do things like go through other people's private stuff you have to be prepared to face whatever the consequences of that are.

oh ok.
so why is everybody saying that it was ok for jane to search through kev's PC as she uncovered the crime?
obv i am not saying what happened isnt terrible, i havent seen the video, knew nothing about it but it seems lots of people are saying its ok to go through somebodies private PC as the result justifies the means etc...

because most people aren't aware of that thread in april I guess. it was pulled pretty quickly.
first that most heard of what happened was at the same time as they heard about what jane did so the usual 2+2=5 happened

It may not be the crime, but additional evidence maybe?

that's why I thought it was worth pointing out, as a lot of people seem to be making that assumption and these distinct 'issues' (jane's actions, the issue over brendan's money, and the alleged assault) are getting lumped in together and the whole thing is getting muddy. Just because the three issues are of differing levels of seriousness doesn't mean they shouldn't all be dealt with individually and appropriately imo. The police are dealing with the alleged assault, blonde have dealt with the money issue and tikay and the mods are now (presumably from tikay's earlier posts) discussing and considering the Jane issue.

not sure. seems a bit far fetched to say jane hacked into somebodies PC to uncover facts about a crime that had already been reported to the police.

This happened away from blonde and was not in her moderators capacity afaik.
