Said that before and the court of appeals quickly said no.
The new evidence could simply be a technicality that the court of appeal will decide played no part in influencing the decision.
There are a lot of people who want a convicted rapist who admitted he slept with a girl without consent to be set free,
If only we all lived in your 'simple' world! Things are either black or white right?

Black or white? No you doofus Ched Evans admitted he slept with a girl without consent and that is rape under English and Welsh law.
Not balck or white just rape.
Is there? You sure about that? Where are all these people who want a convicted rapist set free?
The appeals board only grant 3.5% of all appeal requests, so if any are granted it surely must be because of significant evidence. Evans' team seem convinced he will have his conviction quashed.
Am assuming this new evidence must be something significant. Can't believe for a second that it is just a technicality. That sounds rather lame.
Black or white? No you doofus Ched Evans admitted he slept with a girl without consent and that is rape under English and Welsh law.

Who is denying a second appeal is taking place?So, no appeal then.
Move along, nothing to see here.
He's been out a while?Said that before and the court of appeals quickly said no.

So a granted appeal automatically means you are inncoent?Wooosh! An appeal has been granted doofus.

Are you really this stupid Samo?

By the way: Would you like to show me one post on this entire thread that suggests he should be freed?
The law is fairly black and white though, you can't partly or half rape someone. Is the law fair in that it doesn't consider grey areas? Maybe not but you need clear definitions for it to work properly.
Oh the crushing irony! :facepalm:
Appeals are granted for new evidence or failure of process.
As the case was simple i.e Evans testified he had sex with a girl too drunk to give consent and MacDonald backed this statement up. The fact the didn't know this was a crime has no baring on the case. As the were only three people there i.e MacDonald. Evans and the Girl it is unlikely there is a new witness. As the fact that evans had intercourse with the girl is not in dount then it is not DNA evidence. Unless in the unlikely event he girl has remembered that she did give consent or in the even more unlikely event it is claimed she told someone else she gave consent then it is unlikely to be new evidence.
Which leads to due process i.e the technicality that can mean that trial is restarted.
You seem to have as much of a grasp of Irony as Alanis Morrisette
Gosh... are you a lawyer or something?
No just not stupidGosh... are you a lawyer or something?
So prove me wrong Samo, I dare yaGosh... are you a lawyer or something?
So prove me wrong Samo, I dare ya
Let's just wait and see what the evidence is.
A lot of second guessing going on,, on here. None of us have any idea whether this is just down to a 'technicality' at all.
And equally we don't know the evidence is significant either
And equally we don't know the evidence is significant either
But that's my point... It isn't over yet, there is yet to be a conclusion, there is no right, wrong, black or white yet. And I suspect that even when the legal system has been exhausted there will be doubts about this case. So you are certainly not wrong, not yet anyway, just a long way off being right.
But it has to be significant enough to warrant an appeal doesn't it? The appeals board have said there is new evidence that aids the Evans defence.
If it wasn't significant, why would they grant an appeal?
That's the thing though, he is is in the black/wrong area at the moment. It was decided he was in the wrong, its up to him and his team to prove otherwise and until they can he remains in the wrong.
And in the balance of probabilities will remain so.Very true. Ched Evans IS a rapist and remains so.
