Errrrrrmmmmmmmmmm.........the law goes mad again!!!!

The newspaper article doesn’t give the full story only the emotive rapist bit and certainly doesn’t reveal the terms of the tenancy agreement. And that is what the case rests on.

I assume that the tenancy agreement was presented in court and the judge would have decided if Mrs Goymer had breached it. It has to be presumed that he thought she had because he found for the defendant.

So until we know the full details we cannot say that the law was an ass or not.
