As said theres two questions he can't answer - i) why he was there and ii) why he didn't report it

so game over

Still think the tabloids get away with murder by setting individuals up - who they going to target next month ?

If there's some financially desperate sports star out there (and who's saying higgins wasn't) with gambling debts, drug debts etc... and the carrot gets dangled then to me the journalists are as much to blame.

fuckers
Yeah I agree 100%. I mean if it's a crime to accept bribes, then surely it's a crime to offer them?

It's like setting up a child porn website in order to lure people into giving their credit card details.

I must admit I think the newspapers are the scum of the earth, and journalists are bottom feeders along with ped's, drug pushers and job dodgers like myself

Annoys the hell out of me how the enticers get away with the stuff they do (which is clearly illegal) by using the argument that the person theyve set up has clearly done something which is worse.

Pretending to be someone in the hopes of a stitch up has gotta be borderline rapist material!!
I wish someone could set them up.

How great would it be if they offered some celebrity hundreds of thousands of pounds in bribes, and the celeb was secretly filming then, turned down all their demands and then went to the police and alleged that this reporter was committing fraud.

That's what SHOULD happen.

That's why I always want them to get off completely free. Entrapments by the newspapers (who are just civilians) shouldn't count in court or be legally admissable. In fact it should be a criminal offence to impersonate anyone else for the purpose of deceiving and manipulating other individuals unwittingly.

I think all newspapers should be outlawed and criminilised in all honesty. I fucking hate them with a passion.
