The lead prosecutor is the same person (James Comey’s daughter, Maurene) that prosecuted Gislaine Maxwell, and prevented the human trafficking ring from being publicly exposed. She’s doing the same thing here.
I’m glad he finally got caught on something at least with significant jail time. But…hmm transportation for prostitution? Like if I was an uber driver and a prostitute called me over for a ride, I would be in it for 10 years if she was going to a place to have sex with a guy? Like WTF!!! When did that shit happen?? Do these criminals get to be president at least? Do it twice and that’s pretty much the rest of your useful life. Think about it, you’re affecting no one, you might not even be aware. The girl may just be a total skank doing free community service bothering no one…and you get 10 years for that? For a ride? They should work a little harder and get the other more aggravating charges to stick.
Can’t stop, won’t stop! Bad boy for life!
Can someone correct me if I’m wrong here? I recall some reporting saying that the charges being brought against him placed notoriously difficult burdens on the prosecution. I also recall this being brought up when his defense rested after something like 15-minutes. Given that, is this verdict really such a shock? For my part, I think this is a pretty clear instance of “smoke meaning fire,” but the burden of proof can be tough.
I refuse to click through from any headline, anywhere, that references this guy using his idiotic nickname. That results in me not knowing anything about him, and deprives “news” platforms of a billionth of a cent of ad revenue, both of which I think are for the best.
This is why I sincerely do not believe in ‘cancel culture.’ Who’s actually been cancelled? Cuz every time I’ve ever seen a rich/powerful/famous man get credibly accused of assaulting women (we’ve seen the Cassie Ventura video), he walks. Weinstein is the literal only exception I know of.
Don Imus? He actually got fired. After a lot of apologies he got back on the air, though
Kevin Spacey career nosedive after his shit.
Yeah but that was “gay”.
Cancel culture is a bullshit term. You’re painting yourself as a member of an undesirable cadre. People below already provided multiple examples of accusations being well founded, so I won’t repeat them.
Michael Jackson didn’t go to jail, but it effectively ended his career. Cosby got destroyed. R Kelly eventually ended up in jail.
Also remember the positive and negative of jury trials is that it takes one idiot in the 12.
Interesting… So if you want to do a sexual abuse successfully it seems like you should try being white. I never expected this.
Technically, Micheal Jackson did try being white.
If you want to commit crime, be a white woman for best results.
Like Martha Stewart, Leona Helmsley, and Elizabeth Holmes
Sentenced 5 months for an average 3 year sentence. Sentenced to 4 years only served 19 months. Expected to serve 9 of an 11 year sentence that was nearly two years shorter of a sentence than her male peer.
Get yourself a spoon and put it in some Jell-O pudding!
Even he was released early.
Why Chris Brown still has female fans is way beyond my pay grade.
Yeah, this is baffling to me too. I guess it’s like all the serial killers who get love letters in prison.
The 12 jurors are part of the same population that voted for trump. Are we really still surprised at an average group of people making nonsensical decisions…
We saw OJ go free.
I see a future recipient of a knighthood from King Trump in the new years honor list.
One step closer to the purge becoming a reality. USA, y’all are cooked. Wtf is even happening over there?
Bro we don’t know. It’s like they’re no longer boiling the frog, they’re just chucking them in a blast furnace .
