That's one scary story about your mate and I am glad it got sorted although I cannot even begin to imagine how he coped going through that!!
Out of interest did you and your other mates get interviewed, did you tell police what you saw etc?
Back to Mendy, iirc we are talking 4 different women (at least) with 8 charges (minimum) hanging over him, one of which triggered his breach of bail putting in him on remand.
I appreciate given what happened to your mate that you may have different outlook and thankfully truth prevailed for him, but Mendy implicated multiple times by multiple victim's surely is a different ball game??
If the odds weren't so weighted against him I would normally go with innocent until proven guilty but I cannot see this turning out in his favour, I really can't
It wasn’t great mate, I remember having to tell his brother and sister that he’d been arrested because at the time we were trying to workout where his girl was (luckily he’d had enough time to time his father in law to get her).
They questioned 3 of my mates and then shot back up to Scotland.
The horrible thing is when he finally got the charges dropped no one would initially tell him why. Police kept his mobile and didn’t return it. We asked whether he would consider some sort of pressing charges against her but in the end he was just relieved she told the truth. Turns out she was married, got home at 6am and her husband questioned where she’d been and she made the story up.
I actually think with Mendy we’re up to 6 or 7 women now? I think another one was added today!!
