Rory, I think the point here is, if I was accusing you of similar misdeeds on this forum, and you knew you hadn''t done those things, then I think, come hell or high water, you would defend yourself with the full force of the law, and rightfully so.
The courts are basically a means to an end in this case; the fact other parties benefit from the action is academic because if you truly didn't attempt to steal anything, then you will be awarded costs and damages anyway.
Of course, there is a possibility I am lying here but it would provoke the question as to why I would endure in such matters, and what the hell is my motive.
Similarly, one might suggest I have gone insane which is always a possibility being in paintball for so long but if that were the case, then the other guys responsible for the attempted theft presumably wouldn't have already admitted what they did and duly apologised.
I think it's quite safe to conclude he is lying but that equally beggars the question as to why he would persist in continued denial ... I honestly think he's now gone past the point where it could be classified as pig-headed stubbornness and falls squarely into the realms of a pathology.
My normal reaction to anybody attempting to steal from me would have generally been quite predictable but there was no way I was gonna fall for that one by ending up doing a bit of time for that scum, and so, this is his punishment ....I was gonna say, 'he should take it [his punishment] like a man' but I'm afraid the words 'man' and 'jeff abbott' seem to be mutually exclusive.
