Just so everyone knows, a letter was sent to the 5 lads first class on 23rd dec (so it arrived xmas eve), to advise them they weren't allowed their bikes, leathers etc back yet as they were still reviewing the case. Today, a court summons has arrived, the police are now pursuing a dangerous driving charge. The case has been ongoing for well over a year now and this charge is now suddenly added?!!! victimisation? I wish they'd just leave them alone :-(. Thanks for your continued support everyone x x

I have lost track now of this one ?
So the charge of Dangerous Driving was never dropped ? {The original charges being: two counts of causing death by dangerous driving with one of the defendants being charged with: two counts of causing death by dangerous driving while uninsured as well as: two counts of causing death by dangerous driving}
So what is going on? According to MCN on the 6/1/12 the five were cleared by LEEDS MAGISTRATES COURT ????

Could someone clear this up for me ? so now according to FB and this thread they are being charged again ????
Please don't any one jump down my throat for saying this but before we criticise the police and their actions {see above posts regarding my feelings on the subject I am no fan of the system} remember two people lost their lives a wife and husband and 4 people lost a daughter and a son, imagine if it was someone you lost would you not wish for their deaths to be fully investigated?
However it does concern me that a precedent could be set that would not be justified if the five did in fact have to face a guilty conviction. I am not passing judgement on the case but I am saying do not forget that two people died.
