Declan Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Dog years isn't a real thing. Dogs don't have calendars and the Earth doesn't orbit the sun quicker if you are a dog. It seems the dog's owner complained because it is has a career as a model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogs don't have calendars and the Earth doesn't orbit the sun quicker if you are a dog. No, but you can apply a formula to a dog's age in earth years and give a rough idea of how it compares to a human lifespan, matching ages for sexual maturity, skeletal maturity and lifespan. For a small dog it's something like 15 for the first year, 9 for the next, and 4 per year afterwards. So an 18 year old dog in 'dog years' is about one and a third.

Declan Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I don't think an 18 month old dog has attained sufficient maturity for it have reached the age of majority. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure Ms Gelling will be fine in the longterm now this is done. Her employers released a statement of support it seems too. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure Ms Gelling will be fine in the longterm now this is done. Her employers released a statement of support it seems too. At least it’s been done properly. With a lot of these cases where people are named in the press the press is awfully light on reporting that the case failed or had no merit or whatever so on Google searches on the person all you see is the trial publicity and not the fact that the trial failed. At least they’ve made the papers report the failure in a high profile way so that it can always be referred back to.

NoTailT Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 (edited) The one thing I would say is that there's an element of ignorance to the whole thing. Edited February 16, 2023 by NoTailT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Declan Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 For once I wouldn't be too critical of the AG's office here. It seems to me that the jury listened to her and believed her when she said that she didn't know it was the proceeds of crime or at least wasn't certain enough to wreck her career over one mistake. The alternative is the AG makes the decision not prosecute a professional colleague in private. Would that be ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
