Would that even be legal? I know you get out of court settlements, but could you pay someone to not report a crime like that?

in first world democracies, you can't create contracts which ask you to do something illegal. well you can, but the contract is void. don't know how the situation is in england. discuss this issue with a libertarian for a fun surprise!

I am not a lawyer but the general idea in contracts is you can't make a binding contract for a illegal act that is enforceable. Another interesting thing I would be curious to know the answer of is whether the right to report a crime would fall under natural justice and thus trump anything in common law or a contract.

Apart from in certain circumstances it's not illegal to not report a crime. That's pretty much how all out-of-court settlements work.

Jose posted:55 clubs have been involved now in the scandal How many of the clubs are directly implicated vs being affiliated with youth programs that were doing abuse? Last I heard a lot of Staffordshire teams were implicated through a specific youth program that hired the guy from Crewe.
