Doesn't matter...there IS a trail of 'pay outs' and in the eyes of many that's sufficient to say there is guilt somewhere....just the way it is.
I'll caveat by saying that Cain isn't done if BOTH women are proven with metaphysical certainty to be lying.
Of course, that will never happen. Both women would probably have to publicly admit they were lying.
I understand that, for those who are less well educated.
It just shouldn't be the case here on FR where we're supposed to know better.
There is no implied guilt in this kind of settlement.
