Greetings

I cannot assume guilt or innocence arbitrarily, no thinking person would. 

I have struggled with this particular incident long before it hit the net
and it hasn't become any clearer. Passing judgment either way based on ones
personal feeling towards an individual is just as easy as it is foolish,
look at the last batch of posts, we have a few dozen examples of this. 

At this moment, two people know the truth, neither has spoken here to my
knowledge.

I think we would all be better off if we remembered this, and took Branwens
words to heart.

Yours in pursuit of the Dream,

Elyas MacCrae
