Tito Beltran till Uppsala

och häktet Blanka står det i dagens Expressen. Fotot Sven Lindwall tog (se nedan i bloggen) återkommer, men är nu beskuret. Skön bild. Blivande klassiker.

Jag ska till Uppsala på onsdag nästa vecka och tala om övergrepp. Kommer utan tvekan att tala om Tito Beltran då. Det gjorde jag förra gången också, men utan att namnge honom. (Han var ju inte dömd då.)

Hi Yvonne,
I am an English-speaking opera fan and I don't understand everything you say in your blog. Can you tell us in English why you are so convinced of Tito's guilt when it is evident toa lot of us that the Appeal court's judgment was not a correct one and that the trial process was flawed. And can you please translate your comment about going to Uppsala? I didn't understand it. Thank you.

Hi Yvonne,

I'm still hoping you can answer my question. I believe Tito Beltran is innocent of the charges against him. The same people worked behind the scenes in both cases and the court's judgment was based on finding one side's testimony 'more believable' than the other. This is not a sufficient standard of proof in any court,as defence lawyer Tomas Nilsson pointed out. If all one has to do is to appear to be 'more believable' in court, then anybody can make an accusation and send a person to prison without the need for proof. That is not justice.

Hej Yvonne!!

Jag har precis läst ut din bok och är skakad, förstås. Jag är en "sån" som du, i mitt fall var det min biologiska pappa som misshandlade mig sexuellt upp till 11 års ålder. Jag rtycker att du är modig och STARK! Vill själv skriva om mina upplevelser ngn dag, om jag vågar. Kan vi inte bilda en terapigrupp för "oss" Har gått på många olika terpiformer som hjälpt, men de är ju så dyra...skulle vilja ha ett forum typ AAmöten,

Stor kram,

This blog is not about opera nor about analysing law procedures.

The blog is about sexual crimes towards children performed by pedophiles. A very few of these crimes are reported, even fewer are persecuted and only a small percentage lead to conviction.

My being convinced or not of TB:s guilt has no interest, what matters is that the court is convinced (on all charges and without objections) and that TB now is convicted.
That is what matters.

Oh right, so it doesn't matter if an innocent man is convicted unjustly and sent to prison? Courts are not always correct in their judgements, and in case I believe the court was totally mistaken.

Won't discuss TB:s conviction since you can't read Swedish and thus have no knowledge of the trial and its procedures except what's been in the media. "The perfect crime" is a sexual crime since there are no witnesses; and especially if children are molested 'cause they never tell. Pedophiles are known to deny their guilt although proven guilty. End of discussion.
