Topic Originator: RMGpar  
Date:   Thu 27 Mar 14:34

Notice in todays sun 2 of our players were up in court today in regards to a "serious assault" and "danger to life", with no ple entered I am hoping its maybe not all truth :0

Bene and Fisher. Should be nowhere near the team if that`s the case, innocent or not, we don`t need their baggage going into the last 7.

Fisher has been nowhere near the squad really and one that should be released if we can at the end of the season.

Bene is a tricky one, underperforming and another I’d let go at the end of the season but would err on playing him on Saturday if we can.

We’re better with him than without I think.m, unless we put Otoo at the back and have Wanyama in midfield with another. Not a fan of Hamilton at the back but that’s another option.

I forgot about Sam Fisher (lead badass stealth ninja character in videogame Splinter Cell), with James Bond owning the club we`re turning into a club of spies.

Both should be out the door if guilty, no room in our club for thugs.

Personally I think bene should be dropped for purely footballing reasons. His lack of pace is exploited heavily by our opponents and I don`t think his leadership compensates for that. He might be ok in a back 3, but not a 4.

Not sure about Fisher but not Benny`s first assault charge. Threat to life sounds horrific.

"Innocent til proven guilty, maybe they beat up a man who is a n0nce, or beat up a woman beater, who knows"

so that gives them the right to take the law into their own hands and leave someone with "danger to life" injuries?

Fisher gives off serious ned vibes and Bene looks like a painter & decorator. I doubt either will be around next season.

Assault to severe injury and danger to life - I`m no expert, but I believe this is essentially GBH.

----------------------------------------------------------

NO WAY is that standard wording for an assault - that`s an extremely serious charge.

I know it`s innocent until proven guilty but I`d drop him while this is hanging over him - a needless distraction.

I work in criminal defence. Take it from me it is standard wording for an assault (serious of course)

FYI
“In the context of Scottish law, a threat to life can be a serious aggravating factor in an assault charge, potentially leading to a more severe sentence, ranging from imprisonment to life imprisonment depending on the severity of the assault and the intent of the perpetrator.
Here`s a more detailed explanation:
Assault in Scotland:
Assault in Scotland covers a wide range of actions, from verbal threats to physical violence, and the severity of the sentence depends on the nature and consequences of the assault.
Threat to Life as an Aggravating Factor:
A threat to life, meaning a threat to cause death or serious harm, can significantly increase the severity of an assault charge.
Sentencing:
The sentencing for assault, including those involving threats to life, can range from a verbal warning to life imprisonment, depending on the circumstances of the case.”

I’m not making light of this at all before anyone comes at me. It’s a serious matter and I hope they both have good defence solicitors.

threat to life is a little more than an argument over a split pint and a black eye.


Hopefully the rumours are just that but severity of charges and injuries being discussed (2+2...)

Hopefully the victim has made or is making a full recovery

Yes it is a standard descriptor in the context of that aggravation. The way you put in your sentence made it sound like all, or many assault cases(regardless of the severity) came with that descriptor. I’ve dealt with many assault/serious assault cases, with severe injury or permanent disfigurement aggravations where threat to life was not included.

Fair do’s if I’ve misinterpreted what you were suggesting, my apologies

One punch can result in a black eye, or loss of life.

We don’t know any details, so I ain’t jumping on any bandwagon and slagging off the two involved.

It will become clear in due course.

Not at all.
GBH is ‘the severest form of battery’ - much more than a slap in the coupon.

Assault or Serious Assault is the equivalent.

‘Threat to life’ does not mean that the victim was nearly killed - it means exactly what it says
- THREAT to life, which could be as ‘little’ as being in someone’s face, telling them that you are gonna rip their heid aff - ie kill them.

Kintos, no worries chuck. It was an automatic reaction from me whilst travelling on the train with yet another whoosh of beeps on the ol mobile. X

The standard wording of many types of cases in Scottish law is mind bending and I wish I didn’t have to deal with any kind at all - it would turn yer hair grey and then some. But I’d no have a job 😂

Please remember folks this is all based on an allegation at this stage. Being charged isn’t the same as being found guilty. Tendering no pleas simply means they were in court to address the charges and state their identification.

`When did this latest assault happen? The article doesn’t say.`

Club statement on COWS -

`DAFC can confirm that club captain Kyle Benedictus and defender Sam Fisher have appeared in court in relation to an alleged assault following an altercation in Edinburgh several weeks ago.

As this is an on-going legal case, the club has no further comment to add at this time.`

Everyone needs to be careful when commenting about this whether on here or elsewhere. Revealing details about things or anything that is related to the case that could “influence jurors” would be considered contempt of court. That’s why the club aren’t commenting further.
