Statute of Limitations?

There is that detail, among others. I'm not convinced there is any substance at all to these claims. Even if there were, I haven't seen anything that sounded both plausible and actionable.

You said it, My hope now is that Trump continues to walk that line and avoid either full support for Moore or full castigation. The right move is to continue to leave it up to Moore and his own conscience (if he wants to admit his guilt) or the voters in his state (if he wants to play this out) If he wins, Trump should then throw all his support as the verdict is that his accusers were lying. (Which should be obvious based on her lawyer.)

Let me preface by just saying that the outing of men has passed the rubicon, since Weinstein. This trend that is oh, so in vogue today, will hurt women, and men will have to ignore them in the work place to avoid charges, insinuations, rumors and slander, and possibly even litigation.

As for Moore:

In the absence of ever a case, and not now a case, there is no case, it seems to me.

If I were an Alabama voter I would have to vote for Moore for the sake of the country and over the spit flying accusations of 40 years ago that may or may not have happened at all, and which obviously even if they did would defy the Statute of Limitations to prosecute a case, I think.

Who in Alabama could dare turn a US Senate seat over to a Democrat in these times, when Moore has brought nothing if not a commendable and courageously conservative record to his name, his office and to the state of Alabama and to this Alabama ballot. I pray he gets elected for the sake of the country. Never mind the vulgar flirtations reportedly common to the South in decades past. The women were not injured, for whatever reasons never pressed charges at the time. Only now they complain. Forgetaboutit.

In the South, Jerry Lee Lewis not that long ago married a fifteen year old quite legally, who was his cousin. So, in the South these age gap relationships were hardly stunning events that they are today. My 2 cents.. :D

As a member of the jury, one is seldom 100% certain.

I know this because I have served on 3 juries

However, you have to make up your mind!

Sometimes you have to decide which witnesses are lying.

As a Juror in the trial of Roy Moore, I vote: NOT GUILTY!

And if you haven’t read that he is still leading over his opponent,and that Alabama voters don’t believe the accusations, you’re not paying attention.

I’ve read that. If he stays in and wins, we move to another level with the threats coming from the Senate.

The only Dog I have in the hunt is the possibility of losing an otherwise guaranteed Republican Seat. Had Sessions stayed there we wouldn’t be going through this BS, but that’s water under the bridge.

There is another Month before the Election and it’s only going to get worse IMHO.

Moore had better come up with a better defense than ‘everybody is against me’ and ‘it’s those Rove v Wade supporters’.

Might as well say the Bitches set me up. It will wear thin come December.

He had better show that he wasn’t where these people say he was when these supposed incidents occurred. I see a whole bunch of “splainin” and possible explanations on FR, but Moore’s people aren’t doing much if anything to shoot down the accusers.

Things like, did the Car he drove have doors that wouldn’t open from the inside it the doors were locked?

Is that his signature in the Yearbook?

How about suing these People for Slander or threatening to?
(yes, being a Public Figure that could be problematic)

Doesn’t make a difference what we are saying. It is up to Moore and his Team to fight fire with fire. So far they are acting like a Deer in Headlights.

Agree or disagree, it makes no difference.

Hi my first post. I found something interesting on classmates.com 2009 Gadsden High school (30 year class reunion)

Beverly Young and leigh Corfman BOTH GRADUATED 1979 Same class same school same year.

1979 Leigh Corfman claimed to be 14 years old. I guess they know each other.

That is AWESOME information! Do you have a link to that? I've never done anything with "classmates.com"

That was a freakin AWESOME first post. If we can verify these details, it blows the credibility of both women, and especially Leigh Corfman.

Good Job! And Welcome to Free Republic!

Thank you very much. I tried to navigate that site but it wanted me to register. I think this is particularly interesting information, because not only does it blow the claim of Leigh Corfman’s age, it also indicates the two very likely knew each other.

Someone just told me that any name can be added to any school for any year; that's it's not a reliable indicator that someone actually attended a specific school at a specific time.

Do you know if this is true or not?

I have no idea. I just saw the original post by inquisitive mo and did a google search to find the links.

Yep, already saw it.

I even Posted a while ago wondering when it would be shown on the three Network Evening News Broadcasts. zzzzzzzzz

Not sure what you are trying to convince me of. Moore and his Team are the ones that had better figure out how to fight these allegations before it sinks them.

This is turning into Harvey Weinstein Part Deux...

As for me, I wish Sessions would have stayed in AL and I’ll bet 99% of FReepers agree. Big mistake by POTUS Trump.

Found out there were four locations. If no one can even remember the place, makes it hard to believe this woman.

****You don’t need to be so rude****

Apparently its the only way to reach some people.

This crap has been going on since Clarence Thomas was being appointed to the Supreme court. Remember Anita Hill?

When Donald Trump was running for President on the Republican ticket, they tried this same crap.

They use this stupid playbook over and over and over and over because it works more often than not because naive people believe the lies of people who lie for a living.
