I thought the trial already took place in California and he was acquitted being that California law dictates celebrities are all innocent, especially ones that are blatant pedos who run Neverlands, but I see this is in Cook County. What are the laws regarding celebrities in Ill??
By the way; How milli-seconds passed before he blamed this prosecution on racism?
Dave Chapell’s take on it.
Do I need to warn you that it is graphic and in bad taste? It is FUNNY!
Judging from the article, I see a paradox. That is, they should first charge him with statutory rape, but they can’t locate the girl, who is probably now a lot wealthier and living far, far away.
So for this reason, they are charging him with child pornography, because it has far more liberal standards for prosecution, in that few children used in such imagery are ever identified.
In turn, this creates another paradox, because typically, any adult identified in child porn imagery is identified by unique characteristics, such as jewelry, moles, tattoos, scars, and body type. But in the case of a celebrity, it has to be assumed that if someone wanted to incriminate them, they would very closely *copy* such identifying characteristics.
Not incriminate to get them prosecuted, usually, but so as to sell the imagery as being “genuine”, to fans that would look for such distinguishing characteristics. Fakes.
So this would raise the bar as far as other evidence goes. It should be interesting to see if they get a conviction out of this. Especially with lots of competing expert testimony.
