Coronation Street: Daisy faced Justin in court

Last night, Daisy took to the witness box during Justin’s trial, after finding out that Ryan wasn’t coming to court.

However, Daisy was soon accused of sending Justin mixed messages by the defence barrister. She brought up her history of changing the wedding dates and venues and posting false comments on social media.

She also revealed that Daisy manipulated Ryan so that Ryan and Alya would break up.

Daisy said that she didn’t give Justin any mixed messages and told him to leave her alone again and again.

Her actions were then examined, with it being suggested that she had led Justin on and had caused the acid attack as a result.

Coronation Street fans slam soap for victim-blaming Daisy

Coronation Street fans have slammed the soap for victim-blaming Daisy. They can’t believe that the barrister tried to justify the attack by blaming Daisy for her actions.

How can Justin’s barrister sit there and say Daisy is the guilty party lol, this storyline is beyond belief.

One fan wrote: “If Daisy was a man and Justin a woman, would the defence lawyer have accused the man of leading the woman on? No chance. Aye it’s a soap but still.”

Another person tweeted: “I don’t understand the line of questioning, are they trying to convince the jury that Daisy sending ‘mixed messages’ was enough to justify his anger and the attack?!”

A third viewer said: “How can Justin’s barrister sit there and say Daisy is the guilty party lol, this storyline is beyond belief, anyone would clearly see Justin is guilty.”
