The Old Git Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 6 minutes ago, Gladys said: Well, I may be a bit jaded and cynical, but there are lots of bits that just don't add up - he was with his "partner" for a whole 2 weeks in September, she didn't know he had gone back (you have wonder if her first words were "wtf have you been?"), he had never driven a jet ski before but decided to cut his teeth on a quite treacherous crossing, at the coldest time of year with the least daylight, and having done that walked to Douglas? Oh yes, and last mitigation was depression. I smell bollocks here. Might have been protecting her by saying she didn’t know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Old Git Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 2 minutes ago, John Wright said: Sure. Same question. Where’s the jetski and dry suit. Clothes would be a bit sweaty after 4.5 hours in dry suit. Do jet skis have waterproof panniers? Are they saying they’re looking for it and can’t find it?

the stinking enigma Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 It seems they didnt even ask him. Im thinking about doing a drink drive run douglas to andreas, if the cops follow me race home then tell them i arrived by jet ski. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gladys Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Did they ever find the trawler that Molyneux "chartered" to flee Manx justice earlier this year? Perhaps there is a trawler owner doing a good trade in smuggling people to and from the island? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Old Git Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I wondered about that. Do all fishing boats have to land at Douglas or Peel, or just the non local ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Criminal Justice is a strange choreographed dance, between what actually happened, what the defendant discloses ( with or without advice ) and what is needed to get a conviction. So, guy gets stopped with baggie with traces. Police arrest. Detained person admits its class B, personal use, that he knows class b is illegal, doesn’t say how much he paid or where he got it from. Police don’t pay for analysis. End of story. Its exactly the same. If they’d found it the prosecution would have said. No need to look if they have an admission of the facts constituting the offence.

the stinking enigma Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I just cant believe the cops wouldnt investigate this fully. And the molyneaux thing. Derek flint would be turning in his grave right now if he wasn't still alive and didnt have a bad hip. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What dry clothes could he carry on a jet ski? If he changed where is the wetsuit? Maybe he rocked up in one of these bad boys (to a bit of Jan Hammer's theme tune to Miami Vice obvs) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadAsHell Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Anecdotally he left the jet ski in Ramsey harbour, that's what started the ball rolling... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
