The Human Headline strikes again….he is all yours Arthur, all yours....

That 700 k that Parra saved themselves looks like an absolute bargain basement sale now

I'd LMAO if Parra lose sponsors over this

Karma's still a nasty piece of work :laughing:

Would be pretty funny, Mitch might not like it either, now for some red hot chook karma, please santa, please.
 
Classy showing by Haynes Mum on the news tonight telling reporters to F*** Off….yeah reporters can be lowlifes in pursuit of a story, but how hard is it to reply with the standard line
“no comment”....?
 
I'm no fan of Hayne but a few points about some of the posts on this thread:

There were no charges planned or actual. He wasn't fleeing anything. So his departure from the US is irrelevant. In any case he'd be liable for extradition anyway.

Everything is alleged at this stage. The police investigated and chose not to prosecute. Based on the deposition posted on the SMH it's not clear Hayne was even contacted by the police. You'd assume he was but it's not clear. If he wasn't as far as Hayne is concerned he "hooked up" with some random which no doubt is a regular event for Jarryd. Based on that why would he tell his manager or anyone else?

They have a funny system in the US …

The cops say he has no case to answer, yet she can still lodge a civil suit and chase money in a situation which can't be proved criminally.

It's the same system we have in that regard. Criminal charges need to be proved to the criminal standard of beyond reasonable doubt whereas civil is on the balance of probabilities. Same thing could happen here.

Surely a rape investigation would involve a chat to the accused at the least.

I could be wrong, but i don't recall any civil cases in Australia where a crime was said to have taken place, but no charges laid.

It is a weird quirk of the legal system over here. Same thing happened to OJ Simpson. He was found not guilty in the criminal court, but lost the civil case and had to pay 33 million in damages to Nichols family.

My understanding is there is a lower level of evidence to win a civil case, and the verdict in a criminal court has no impact….........go figure.

Sort of a slap in the face to their own justice system.

Since he is in Australia and out of their jurisdiction, i wonder if he can just tell them to shove it up their backsides?

I doubt US law enforcement is going to seek any sort of extradition for a civil suit.

It's not a weird quirk, it's a serious deficit that promotes a dreadfully litigious culture. Just drive around the outskirts of big US cities and see how many billboards for law firms there are.

Also think about how many Australian footballers have ever been accused of an offence in America and how many of the alleged victims brought civil suits. It's 100% and it would always be that way because victims hedge their bets - institutional penalty and personal financial penalty.

How can there possibly be two "levels" of guilt applied to one case. How can you be not guilty of something but have to pay someone for the same alleged offence? Makes no sense, it just encourages lawsuits.

Yeah i think he did ignore it.

In Lodge's case he was actually found guilty of a crime by the courts, so a civil case is understandable.

But in Hayne's case, he hasn't even been charged with anything. Its ridiculous.

Sounds like a money grab.
If the police don’t think there was any evidence, it won’t have any effect on him or his club.if she goes to civil court and wins it might, although accusations against sports people in the USA are nothing new.
She’d need solid evidence, and it looks like the Police weren’t too concerned.
I agree with Yossarian about no reason to leave the country
A storm in a thimble.

You'd think so but the deposition suggests that all the cops did was to advise the plaintiff to try and get incriminating evidence against Hayne. This seems to have largely been unsuccessful.
