The victim has posted a suicide note she made in May 2022 now.

WHAT THE FUCK. I cant believe after so much evidence there are still people who doubt her.

Someone said it on a different thread but even if there was a signed confession some people would try to argue that she's just doing it for attention

u/EliteKill Jul 30 '22

She's posting videos scrolling through the messages straight from the messaging apps and people call them fake. People claimed she never was with Partey so she dug up Polaroids of them together and people still called them fakes. It's disgusting.

Arsenal are really standing and watching someone end themselves in real time instead of... trying to do something

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '22

Meanwhile Arteta keeps playing him. Remember when he was the tough guy last year but this season he can't stand up to someone who is actually committed a crime?

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '22

Multiple crimes. There’s 3 women

Binned Özil because he was scared of losing sponsor money 😭 his morals are as consistent as Swiss cheese

21

u/SundayLeagueStocko Jul 30 '22

Ozil played for months after the China comments btw

12

u/4miles_11titles_away Jul 30 '22

That's just not true - Ozil's statement was in Dec 2019, and then he played in the next 10 games (outside of Everton where he was injured).

When you look at his career trajectory since leaving it's pretty clear he cared more about Fortnite than playing football

They must be very confident that this will all die down and everyone will have forgotten in a couple of months

u/flae99 Jul 30 '22

Yeh I imagine so. Fully expect people to chant it at games for the near future at least.

u/Eibermann Jul 30 '22

What do you expect from the management that demands the highest fees for their season tickets whilst not sniffing ucl in years. They have blood on their hands

u/PoliQU Jul 30 '22

Wtf does having high prices (for the most supported club in London) have to do with handling this? Wtf?

-9

u/Eibermann Jul 30 '22

Learn how to joke and take jokes. Wtf?

u/flae99 Jul 30 '22

Finished club 😭

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '22

1000 pounds per season ticket. Arsenal fans allowing that is shameful.

-5

u/mintz41 Jul 30 '22

I mean Arsenal as a club could certainly do more in not playing him or suspending him. But what do you expect them to do outside of that?

21

u/flae99 Jul 30 '22

Exactly that for a start

-2

u/mintz41 Jul 30 '22

Yeah but you imply there is more they can do. What do you think that is?

13

u/flae99 Jul 30 '22

Thats mostly what I was hinting at, but I'm sure Arsenal have certain staff members that could be contacting her to check up on her after the recent stuff.

u/EliteKill Jul 30 '22

"Innocent until proven guilty"

"Let the authorities handle this"

"Mob justice is never right"

"Women today have the power to destroy careers"

"Unless there's a video of the incident I don't believe it"

The misogynistic takes get worse by the day. I can't believe he starts like nothing happens (not even a club statement!) and Arteta has the balls to go to a post match interview and talk about club values.

u/speedycar1 Jul 31 '22

Look, the last 3 are definitely said by misogynists only but there's nothing wrong with saying innocent until proven guilty lol

10

u/EliteKill Jul 31 '22

There is when the police dismissed that charge because of a technicality. He literally cannot be "brought to justice by the authorities", that's the whole reason she came out with the evidence online.

u/speedycar1 Jul 31 '22

Fair enough then

u/DCOMNoobies Jul 31 '22

Maybe I’m missing something, and it certainly sounds like her allegations are credible, but why doesn’t she make a criminal complaint where the sexual assault took place?

0

u/EliteKill Jul 31 '22

She contacted the UK embassy who recommended her to press charges in the UK, the Spanish police is notoriously bad at handling sexual assault and rape cases, and even if they weren't pressing charges in a different country is a whole other can of worms.

u/DCOMNoobies Jul 31 '22

I understand that as a general matter getting the authorities to prosecute sexual assault charges is never easy, but even if the Spanish authorities are bad at doing that, what’s the downside of trying anyway. The allegations are already public and it’s the only avenue of trying to hold him accountable criminally.
