It also emerged during today’s evidence that at 1.08pm that day, McIlroy posted a picture on a WhatsApp group called The Juicers which depicted him and three girls who attended the afterparty in Jackson’s.
The image depicts McIlroy and the three friends either sitting on his knee or next to him. He captioned the image ‘Love Belfast Sluts.’ And on 2.47pm that day, he sent a another WhatsApp message to a friend which said, “Pumped a bird with Jacko on Monday. Roasted her.”
Basically McIlroy was the guy who claimed he had sex with the girl when none of the defendants or the victim said he did. The only charge brought against him was that he exposed himself to the girl.
Yes, of course it was snippets. Everything in the papers is designed to sell papers.
I thought you more discerning.
How do you explain 12 random jurors unanimously finding him not guilty in such a very very short space of time?
I think rape cases are extremely complex and very hard to secure convictions in unfortunately.
In my own personal opinion do I think Paddy Jackson did rape her? The answer in my mind is he did, without doubt. I took that view from what we heard in court proceedings and the numerous lies and cover up Jackson and his acquaintances engaged in.
