PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."
On the first point we have a law of "common purpose" over here that can be used against people in a group one (or more) of whom have committed a crime. To simplify to an absurd degree, if people in a group are aware that someone within the group is preparing to commit a crime then they are also complicit in that crime when it occurs.
So if A and B go out to "sort out" C and A is carrying a knife then if B is aware of that fact (s)he/it will be charged with the same crime as A, up to and including murder.
My expectation is that over here everyone on the bus would be in court, and considering everyone was keeping quiet about what happened all would be found guilty.
The wording on arrest is "*Name*, I am arresting you on suspicion of *Crime*. You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned something which you later rely on in court. Anything you do say may be given in evidence."
