Celtic to be sued in the US over abuse(The Sun)

[Beanyrfc79]

Aye but how does any court case etc work?
They ‘summon’ a company from a different country. Just don’t get it

The same way Police Scotland went after Jeff Winter for blogging

 

[Goggs21]

Find it very strange this has reached America yet Nicola or Hamza haven’t heard about it

 

[govwalker]

It's well known that Cairney abused kids on a US tour in the 80s/90s and Saint Timmy knew and covered for his own pal.

 

[Eckhailitchenko]

That a big assed class action lawsuit I see coming over yonder horizon timmy ?

The fukk is wrong with uk tabloids? Using the words “footie trips” when talking about the sexual abuse of children?

On the story itself, its long, long overdue. Hell mend the cuunts.

 

[tobeornottobe]

Was this the tour of Boston where the kid was made sign a hush hush document

Kearney , New Jersey.

Rest assured. They have RC PLACEMEN in every facet of society. The FBI will no doubt oblige and stay away.

Opus Dei will snub this out - they've contained it for decades.

A massive conspiracy that hides the largest paedophilic gang in the history of world sport.

SNP shame on you.

* looks out tin foil hat

 

[Texas ranger]

If this is accurate from the Sun and there is an avenue that can be pursued, believe me there will no shortage of lawyers ready to take this on. Whether they be from Texas or some other state. The Penn State affair showed how the U.S lawyers treat matters like this.

 

[Derek90]

The American's doing the what the authorities in this country refuse to do. And that is do the right thing

Exactly what I was going to say. How do these folk sleep at night? It’s as if they think what’s happened is acceptable, toxic. USA will go through them!

 

[Haining84]

I think there might be some more very bad news just around the corner for St Pats too..

 

[muttley]

If Cairney abused kids on US soil, he himself may face extradition and trial, never mind the financial shitstorm that would collapse on the Piggery Peasants. ? Knowing the SNP, they would fight tooth and nail to prevent extraditions to US courts.

Not a subject to make jokes about. Grow up.

You think the tarriers have placemen in the FBI?

I was thinking the same - as if it is all a lighthearted news story.

Makes me doubt the validity of the story.

You want to be getting on the phone to Dan Brown with that theory mate.

Mind you - you are probably fxxking right.

I never made a joke about child abuse. It’s shocking and nothing to be laughed at. My comment referred to your mentions of the FBI and Opus Dei. Not me that needs to grow up your on trying to cause sh*t with fellow bears when it was only a lighthearted comment.

 

[Graemeh89]

This is what my Tin foil hat joke referred to , not child abuse I don’t think joking about that is big or clever.

 

[tintin69]

Which country would the court cases be held?
Sounds like a non story.
We need the Scottish cases to reach court.
Just one successful case establishing that Celtic have liability for the boys club and the floodgates will open.

Isn't nicola in America right now?

Coincidence?

What's this mate?

 

[George Goudie]

I never made a joke about child abuse it was only a lighthearted comment.

Oxymoron mate. But I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. Disagreement with fellow Bears is fine - but this is no joke.

This is a scandal of epic proportions with victims in hiding all over the world. So sad. I hope the victims get some respite if that entity is prosecuted.

 

[TheMilster]

The only way the victims will get any real justice in this rancid hellhole that have protected these scumbags at every turn.
Game changer if American authorities get involved.
No protection for the Filth.

No. Opus DEI BoB.

To me its mental that you honesty think Opus Dei have influence in Scottish football. But totally entitled to your opinion, nothing surprises me on FF anymore

Sick ? For laughing at how I’m not surprised by anything on FF ? Aye no bother.

On top of these abuse cases that are already known about?

If their was a crime committed in the States, then (i presume) a prosecution could take place. After establishing guilt, civil law suits suing the corporate body (cfc) could be attempted. I'm not a lawyer, but I presume that is the procedure.

wow..ive read the Hanssen story multiple times, fascinates me all the espionage and drop points, I knew that he attended church every weekend with his family but had no idea it was on the scale of the second link

A civil law suit and a criminal case can happen concurrently but very seldom do. Generally the criminal case occurs first, followed by a civil case if that is also being sought. It’s important to realize the burden of proof in civil courts is easier than in criminal cases and also, much to do with that , a not guilty finding in a criminal case does not mean the civil case will follow the same path. A good example was the O.J. Simpson case. Not guilty in the criminal case, liable for $33.5 million in civil cases.

Whats the jist of this mate?

 

[Haining84]

On top of these abuse cases that are already known about?

To do with these cases.

 

[TB12]

Penn State paid roughly $60 million to 26 victims through civil claims.
This could be extremely costly for Separate Entity FC

They are up over $100 million just on civil law suits.

https://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/college/ct-penn-state-sandusky-settlement-20180109-story.html

The estimated total cost to Penn State with this, lawyers fees, fines, etc is close to $250 million.

 

[Dave570]

I take no comfort from all of this Hell on earth these young boys have gone threw, and must still be going threw, I don't think I could ever have got over such attacks as went on in that Hellhole, and they have the audacity to call that place Paradise, perhaps if the FBI do become involved in the crimes and cover ups that went on in Boston, it may sharpen minds in this backwater, turned into the shit hole of a country by the very people who refuse to do anything about it.

Paedophiles Paradise!

 

[Robby Bussell]

Just as well they can get £50M for Tierney

Did he get pumped as well.

 

[El Buble]

An interesting, and overdue, development. Sounds like it’s the US lawyers touting for custom rather than the victims approaching them though.

Don't be mistaken. Wait and see.

 

[nemessis]

Stripping titles and accolades does nothing for the victims. They deserve compensation.

Absolutely correct these peoples lives have been destroyed by these heinous crimes and deserve at the very least to have American style compensation not the piddly amounts being talked about in the UK.
However large the monetary awards might be it will still never be enough to repair the damage to their lives but it will help somewhat thank god it never happened to anyone I know.
