there are a few people to blame for her death and the guard was not one of them.
Yes he was. See my comment above. He just wasn't THE person to blame.

Guard was guilty of causing a young girls death, got what he deserved. I strongly disagree with you here. So what will happen now a new law thats says if you are drunk you are not allowed on any form of public transport. there are a few people to blame for her death and the guard was not one of them. Perhaps if she was at home were she should of been none of this would of happened. Who gave her the drugs she had taken who gave her the money to go out who sold/supplied her with alchol clearly she was under age It was a tragic accident and while i feel a little sad for her parents,It makes me so angry that one man has been blamed and sent to prison for 5 years. there should be a public outcry and he should not be in prison The guards job is to ensure the safe passage of people in their care. He knew Georgia was drunk, he knew she was leaning on the train, and he still gave the all clear signal to the driver. This wasn't a gang of drunken men, it would have taken him seconds to let her back on or ensure she was away from the platform edge. Georgia was not under age, she was of legal age to be drinking and the drug she had taken wasn't illegal. If he had done his job, she would not have died. Liverpool Echo

Bad choice of terminology on my post - apologies Boris for being a "plonker". Least I can be confident that I am not rude in respect to other members though.
Gippy - I thought drinking under the age of 16 and being in public was illegal ( I know she has apparently only consumed indoors but i thought it was only wine that she could consume legally with a prent present? Forgive me lack of knowedge on the laws of drinking. My kids aren't allowed period be it with me or not! )
I also thought someone had posted the legal standing on Mephedrone - it is a class B drug as far as I know from other posters xx

Signed. RIP Georgia. See we're getting even more nutters on site, no wonder the old hands are thinning out on here.

Have a read of today's Metro paper, looks like a lot of support for chris all over the country. I noticed that this morning, it seems that anyone that knew her is angry, and they focus that anger on the guard, which is understandable, however anyone who can look at it in a detached manner seems to be of the view that the sentence, and perhaps even the conviction, is wrong.

It was a very sad accident, the guard should not be blamed and should certainly not be in prison. A 16 year old (equivalent of at least 8 pints and drugs) - come on people.
If I were the drivers and guards on merseyrail I would now refuse to move any trains with drunks on...

Ok we know she should have not been on drugs and that drunk, But Merseyrail should never have let her on the train or on to the station platform in the first place.
I'm not saying he is to blame 100% but he should have never given the signal for that train to leave, he should have got security to have her removed from the station end of.

I've signed and I am in full support of the guard. It is sad situation. The trouble these days is that some parents try to be too much like friends to their child, letting them go out and drink when in all they just need some discipline and structure. My mother never let me go out at that age and I always disliked her for it but looking back I am glad she was like that with me. At that age you are irresponsible.
