Human Rights, no, I don't think so dear!















Dear All

As expected Caroline Cartwright has lost an appeal against her conviction from breaking a noise abatement order.

A long list of people were complaining, neighbours, the local postie and a woman taking her child to school complained about the noise.


Mrs Cartwright, argued she had a right to "respect for her private and family life" under Article 8 of the Human Rights Act.

You can’t access your rights if it means you are denying someone their rights.

Mrs Cartwright patently didn’t under the difference between ‘I want’ and ‘I am entitled to’.

Recorder Jeremy Freedman sitting with two other magistrates rejected her bogus claim that she could not help making the loud noise during sex.

He said;

"We are in no doubt whatsoever about the level of noise that can be heard in neighbouring properties, in the street and in the back lane. It certainly was intrusive and constituted a statutory nuisance. It was clearly of a very disturbing nature and it was also compounded by the duration - this was not a one-off, it went on for hours at a time”.

Hours at a time!

No time outs for water breaks and a nibble at a sandwich?

He added;

"It is further compounded by the frequency of the episode, virtually every night."

Poor Rachel it was even if the couple banging next door were a pair of stunners.

It would put me off my food I can tell you!

Now the next episode in the saga is Mrs Cartwright appearing to stand trial at Newcastle Crown Court on 14 December accused of three counts of breaching the Asbo.

She might get a bit of time in the pokey, so everyone in the street can get a good night’s kip!

And of course the postie will be free to deliver his mail safe in the knowledge that all’s well in God’s green earth and the screamer is silent.

As for Mr. Cartwright, he will have to take matters into his own hands.

Yours sincerely
