Somehow, cash settlements have never, ahem, “settled” well with me.
Will a bag of cash comfort the teenage girl when she has terror in the night? Can she hug it, call out to it, use it to defend herself from her fears, both real and imagined?
Will any of that money still be around when she marries, and her relationship with her husband is stressed by her hatred of men?
I don’t care if he settled with the girl for $2 million. None of it mitigates the fact that he pursued that child for the purposes of rape.
I hope this prosecution leads to bringing more Hollywood filth to justice.
