+xnullNo comment cannot be used in the prosecutions favour at all. The prosecution can only present evidence - no comment is not evidence of anything and any claim about no comment hurting the victim is pure hearsay. Hi No offence but you are missing the point I was suggesting. The Police and judge can use emotionally aimed words referring to the fact of "no comment" being made and so implying you have no victim empathy, etc which can influence a jury (if you go to trial!) In the end "words" used can be more powerful especially when used by someone who is skilled in their use. That's what the likes of Politian's and the media do all the time All I am suggesting is that before taking that option think carefully.
Society suggests I must let go of all my expectations but I disagree, as whilst I have a voice, I have hope.
Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope is for tomorrow else what is left if you remove a mans hope. ------------------------------
