High profile crimes

[chuk_77]

This is not a discussion of the locked thread as much as what makes one case a higer profile than another.

The Jill Meagher case was talked about here 

So was Keishas murder even before it became a murder

And there have been more, so I do wonder why the other mention no names one was locked? 

Anyone able to shed light on it without discussing a locked thread?

Yes Az, that would help to determine if it was worth while participating in a thread or not.

Do you mean the lats poster or first poster of locked threads?

Or the one that runs amok and causes the lockdown?

i mean the one who would have filled the thread full of posts about her legal concerns, over and over......and then incase you missed it over and over again

I believe there were several posters posting legal concerns.

you are probably right.

how is talking about what is in the media about it any different to say standing in a supermarket line and discussing it? Should crime not be talked about "incase" a potential juror is within ear shot?

edit to include:

I just find it odd that this particular case can not be discussed here. Would be great if a mod could maybe explain why?

Oh Chuk! now there will be posts about publishing.......................

There have been a few high profile cases where the defence have tried to claim the jury could have been influenced by extensive previous media attention the case has attracted and the Judge(s) have rejected that.
