Royal Hoax: Possible Charges Against Radio DJs

December 22, 2012 Top Stories

Police in London are determining whether or not to press charges against the Aussie radio DJs, Mel Greig and Michael Christian, after their prank call that led nurse Jacintha Saldanha to commit suicide, reports TMZ.

Royal Hoax: Possible Charges Against Radio DJs
In early December, the 2DayFM DJs called the London hospital where a pregnant Kate Middleton was convalescing from acute morning sickness and posed as the Queen and Prince Charles.

Jacintha Saldanha, a 46-year-old mother of two, was the nurse who put the call through to Kate's nurse. Saldanha committed suicide three days later, with her body found near King Edward VII Hospital.

Prosecutors are reviewing the case to see if charges will be brought. Greig and Christian are no longer on the air and their show has been canceled.

I absolutely hope serious charges will be brought against those 2 DJ's in London who played that "hoax", that "Hoax" wasn't funny and it most definitely drove a wonderful, caring nurse over the edge to her committing suicide. Suck "pranks" just are not funny, they have the potential for serious, often deadly consequences, if an example is made of these 2 heartless people (the only reason they have shown any remorse is because of this woman's death), they said they were sorry, but it "was a joke". If they truly didn't mean any harm, the moment they knew they were believed, the moment they were connected to Kate Middleton's floor and her nurse, they would have hung up the phone, simply hung up the phone, thus drawing attention to a serious flaw in the system of that hospital in the way they screen phone calls, but they didn't, they spoke to Kate's nurse, asked questions which were none of their business, ultimately humiliating this poor woman so badly she felt she had no recourse but to take her own life.

So what are they going to charge them with, bad accents? To say that they caused this person to commit suicide, is absurd. Too much responsibility is being heaped upon these DJ's.
