He "used his position to lure a woman to his apartment under the guise of professional networking and mentorship,” What did she expect?
Charged him with 8 counts, probably to try to get him to plead guilty to one of them.
So, is Maurzio running for a State or Federal office?
Merely showing it is enough to attempt coercion. That was stupid and no means no.
A complete “he said” “she said”.
She has plenty of reasons to lie.
Why believe her over him?
Because, we are told: Women never lie!
There could be evidence, but none was mentioned. It is pretty close to “He said, She said”, in which case 50:50.
Because she reported immediately and didn’t wait 30 years?
Because she reported immediately and didn’t wait 30 years?
That is better, but it is also a faster payout for her.
Is it possible she is telling the truth? Sure. Is it possible she is exaggerating? Sure.
A single young woman goes to an older man’s apartment to “advance her career”.
What was she expecting? He “let her go” because she said she had a meeting scheduled? Doesn’t sound much like a rape.
I think it was mixed signals. Promiscuity is common these days, and often expected.
I was foreman of jury trial. The first vote was 6to6 guilty not guilty. I asked the proponent of each side why they felt as they did. Guy said he was innocent because his girl friend said he did not do it; WOMEN DONT LIE!
No vag penetration. You used to laughed away on rape accusations if there was none
Fat Albert still has a gubmint job? I thought he’d be on the way to getting indicted like Madame Landlord, Tititsha James and Fat Fani.
this is new york city! use sharia law. She needs 6 witnesses to prove it!
Young women are extremely stupid these days because there feminist mothers never taught them to keep themselves out of potentially dangerous environments because “that’s fearmongering” and dampens their brave girl boss ways.
My mother taught me that all men are pigs until they prove otherwise.
However the professor has no business offering mentorship and expecting sex. That proves he is a pig.
Because here’s the thing. Men who are open and honest about their sexual interest in a women are providing the woman the opportunity to accept or reject the offer.
Networking and mentorship? That’s bait and switch predatory behavior.
She must have known what going to his apartment for “networking and mentoring” meant. I just don’t see how there is evidence to bring charges. The only evidence seems to be they found guns in his apartment and he is guilty of being a creep. If she had injuries or torn clothing or he had fired the gun or people heard her scream, that would be evidence. He may have done what she said, but people shouldn’t be prosecuted without evidence. He is presumably wealthy, which gives her a motive for false charges.
50 years ago, it was hard to get the police and prosecutors to file rape charges. Some feminists got that changed. However, even if someone may be guilty, they shouldn’t be convicted without proof.
Because here’s the thing. Men who are open and honest about their sexual interest in a women are providing the woman the opportunity to accept or reject the offer.
A lot of people believe inviting a woman to your apartment is being open and honest about sexual interest.
I recall a cartoon that way, about a woman being all upset, because, she said, “The creep had a whole apartment of etchings”... when she thought looking at my etchings was code for sexual interest.
This looks like a lot of mixed signals to me. I would like to hear the other side.
But the other side cannot be open and honest, because they are facing multiple felony raps.
A very difficult case to prove. I assume she is telling the truth but how could she prove it?
Which is why you don’t isolate yourself with men unless you know them VERY well.
Yeah she should have known I guess. But you’d figure a man of such prominence and pedigree would be trustworthy.
And women want to get ahead in their careers and are trying to meet up and network and all.
Open and honest would be asking for dates and saying I’m interested in you. Along with the usual flirting and excessive eye contact and smiling.
Networking/mentoring is a bullshit predatory false pretense. Why would he be expecting consensual sex when they haven’t even dated?
Especially considering the age gap. Somebody forgot the wine and dine stage. You can always tell when a pair is about to start a relationship because there is all sorts of flirting and looking and leaning into each other.
Orally raped her?
Sorry I ain’t gonna lie
I just chuckled out loud
I DO NOT BELIEVE in anonymity for rape accusers
Why would he be expecting consensual sex when they haven’t even dated?
Such is a pretty common occurrence.
Yes, the body language you mention is very common. Lots of people understand it intuitively, others do not. A fair amount is cultural and is learned.
Promiscuity is also common, and lots of people want sex without much of a relationship, probably more men than women, but that seems to be changing as well.
I appreciate your insight and comments. Please continue.
“My guess is he expected consensual sex for value expected, such value to be provided in the future.”
Lol, no woman with more than a single brain cell is taking that deal. We are hard-wired to get value first. If she’s sugar-babying, well sugar daddy is going to provide the goods first. Especially not from middling successful middle aged men.
“Promiscuity is also common, and lots of people want sex without much of a relationship, probably more men than women, but that seems to be changing as well.”
Again, you’re glossing over the age gap. Young professional women may be hooking up in their age group, but not older men in her career area. We know better than to sh!t in our backyard. If she was the type to trade sex for career advancement, she’d be far more sly about it than to cry rape. There is no career benefit in that.
