Strange article in how it transitions from a Weinstein article to a bail reform article.

I’ll bet he has an mental health crisis, unfortunate accident, or health emergency in the very near future. Oh well, like Epstein I guess it was good while it lasted.

Don’t be so suspicious. He was probably just out having a few laughs with an old friend.

How does one leave home without a part of the bracelet’s monitoring technology that keeps the ankle bracelet activated? What the f*ck? What kind of freakin’ security system is that? Throw his ass in jail.

He didn’t provide a service to Anybody.

He molested women who wanted parts in his movies.

Not nearly the same thing.

Just like Epstein’s cameras not working. This is a trial run like E’s first suicide attempt.

Better yet, why weren't the police waiting in his driveway when the suspicious ankle monitor triggered an alert?
