PRESUMPTION OF INNOCENCE

What happens if you are accused of something you haven´t done?. Have you ever thought about that? Just read the following story.

Some years ago, a very good friend of mine who was just married and who had found a recent job received the visit of the police at his home asking him to go with them to the police station. On the way to the police station, the policeman told him he had been accused of rape by a woman. The woman had described a car similar to his car and some numbers of the registration number (not all the numbers) had a coincidence. He came into a room with four more guys and after some minutes a policeman took him to jail just telling him the woman had pointed him. The question was that on the date and hour the woman reported the rapist attack her my friend was at home, and his wife knew about it (but her testimony at the judgement has no value just because it was his wife’s testimony). My friend stayed two days (a hole weekend) in jail and on Monday, his lawyer asked for a second recognition session. Just imagine yourself arriving on a police car, handcuffed and all your family (dad, mum, your wife) crying because they know you are innocent. Fortunately for my friend, the woman pointed to another man!!!! No comments. I told my friend to report her for moral harm but my friend just decided to forget about everything. Where is the presumption of innocence in this true story?

MR. RAJOY AND THE CLIMATE CHANGE….

Ahah! Here he is!!! Miiiisssterrrrr RRRRRajoy (sounding like in a ring before a fight). The BEST, SUPER, INCREDIBLE, VISIONARY man in the world. I couldn´t care less what Mr. Al Gore and the scientic community around the world have told about the climate change. Mr. Rajoy has said that´s not an important problem. There are some others more important! (in fact, I sincerily cannot imagine about a bigger problem, next elections probably???). This guy is surprising me everyday. Mr. Aznar told some months ago there was no problem if you drink wine and after that you take your car. It was difficult to fly higher than Mr. Aznar but… here is Mr. Rajoy (a really worthy heir!!!). I think I will die without knowing the reason why that man is voted by 20 millions of citizens.

COULD ….

It looks like I “MUST” give some clues about my identity. Here are some of them. I COULD be a man, BUT I also COULD be a woman. I COULD be a student, but I also COULD be a worker, who knows, I COULD be also both things at the same time (for sure I’m not the teacher, that´s an important clue!!!). I COULD be sit near you or far from you. I COULD live in Esplugues or just outside. Probably I love study English, maybe I hate it, or maybe I don´t study English!!!. Probably CAMAPA is something related with my name, or probably it’s related with my life, or probably it´s not related with anything of me and it’s an invention of my mind. I like to do sport but I also like to lie on the sofa. I like music but I also like the silence. I hate winter and I love summer….. That is how I am. You COULD try to guess who am I or you just can wait until the end of the course because this is one of the funny things of this blog, GUESS!!!

OBJECTIVES AND PURPOSES

Well, I have just read the teacher´s blog. It looks like if we work hard during this year we will improve our writing style. Well, I will try to work hard on this experience but I don´t know if my busy life will let me. There are going to be some important changes in my life during this year related with work and other things and I sincerely don´t know how much free time I will have to dedicate to this new experience.

What´s the meaning of CAMAPA? Well, you will have to wait until the end of this experience to know the meaning, mainly because if I should explain the meaning then I would be giving some clues about my identity.

Well, that’s all by now.
