Isn’t there a statute of limitations on these types of crimes?
“I wonder if he really did it. So far I haven’t heard of the evidence proving he did it, and in this modern legal climate, I consider it typical for courts to get things absolutely wrong.
Does anyone know what the evidence is here?”
The accusers and other witnesses laid out specific instances of behavior and cover up by scientology church members which was believable by the jury.
Some of his victims did not press charges but witnessed against him.
His lawyer responded that “Maybe he was a lousy lover.”
I hope he does.
Because this reeks.
“I wonder if he really did it. So far I haven’t heard of the evidence proving he did it”
Neither have I. It makes one wonder if perhaps he was a “closeted conservative” in LA. They’re the only ones that receive this kind of treatment.
Reminds me of a line from Blazing Saddles.....”you said rape twice....
I like rape”. ;)
Yeah, I see that...His pic made him look black...
I believe the law was changed in California because of acting children that were sexually abused. It’s now 25 years or something to report.
It’s not official until Whoopi weighs in.
Scientology is evi, but that doesn’t mean he raped these women
Here’s the 600 pound gorilla in the room.
It is nearly impossible to prove a negative. Testifying would have netted him nothing. The women made accusations that cannot be proven to be true or untrue. Calling witnesses would have done nothing for him unless they could swear they were there that day 20 years ago.
Essentially, as I see it, no proof is required for their accusations, but he is required to prove he did not. Can’t be done.
Don’t know if he did it, don’t know if he deserves this - he might very well be a monster...or not. The key point is the process. Which seems to me to be a travesty.
69 minutes is a long audio to listen to without some hint what I might expect to hear. Can you give a brief description of what he says?
If this is California, that means he’s out in 6 months with good behavior.
These cases sound questionable. The time to speak up was 20 years ago. Now, where’s the toxicology report? Where’s the evidence?
Him and O.J. can swap stories.
What is it with having to drug a woman that is going to give it to you anyway.
I don’t know any of the particulars, there has been a blackout on coverage in MSM about this. To the point of me thinking “what are they hiding”.
he outlines how the cult bullies people who speak out against them and how it controls people through threats and intimidation.
Isn’t Cosby now free for the same?
two decades ago. If you do it today you wouldn’t even get bail.
I already know that. Does he say anything that proves there were any rapes?
