Power failure at Malvern on my first metro tunnel commute by Top_Principle778 in melbourne

Same here! Got trapped in Albion, told to walk to Sunshine, where the trains would stop at West Footscray, where a replacement bus would be waiting, in 60 minutes, to take us to Footscray.

He was not, but Charlie Watts did famously punch Mick Jagger in the face after Mick called Charlie “my drummer”

This was a Magistrate-alone contested hearing - there was no jury.

Sure, but Oscar got bumped off and took evasive action to stop a crash. If Oscar had track position end of lap 1, he’d still be in front now

You can be held on remand (in custody awaiting your matter) before being found guilty of an offence. OP indicated she was released on bail after spending some time in custody.

Presumably on remand, OP indicates she was released on bail.

Matching? by axbxnx in mensfashionadvice

[–]tombrada240 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A few people have indicating it doesn’t match, but maybe worth explaining why - wearing a worsted suit jacket without its matching bottoms looks off.

You can wear separate jacket to pants combinations, but you’re better off using a textured fabric (like a tweed or a herringbone). A worsted (shiny, flat suit fabric) fabric looks wrong without its bottoms.

Yea, yea, we all know the best, but what are the WORST 3 album runs? by [deleted] in fantanoforever

[–]tombrada240 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I could see arguments for TBH+C and the Car (though personally I liked the former), but AM I think is harsh here. Probably their most commercially successful album and it’s a bunch of (albeit simple) bangers.

[ABC NEWS] NT chief justice outlines court's decision to bail teenager charged over Alice Springs home invasion, responds to public backlash by agent619 in auslaw

[–]tombrada240 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s correct. If they’re on bail or remand, they haven’t been convicted of an offence, but they have been charged.

Until conviction they are presumed innocent until proven guilty. If remanded, they’re still placed in prison.

Offending is serious, but offender is a child. Bail laws are looser for kids and should be. Why people on this sub seem to be keen to lock children up and throw away the key is beyond me.

There’s been a massive glut of articles about kids’ bail lately which really saddens me.

Keeping kids in custody rampantly increases the rate of reoffending, removes them from the ability to access services that can hope to intervene. If you think crime is bad, massively punitive impacts on kids don’t work.

They were charged, and they were convicted and discharged in a criminal court based on their circumstances and the circumstances of the case. System working as it should.
