I didn't miss that, I just wanted to reiterate that he's been publicly accused of rape by ten women and sexual harassment/sexual assault by at least 84 others. From the article:
Quote:

More than 100 women have accused Weinstein of impropriety going back 40 years, but Brafman argued there was no criminal behaviour.

"If a woman decides that she needs to have sex with a Hollywood producer to advance her career and actually does it and finds the whole thing offensive, that's not rape," he told The Times.

"You made a conscious decision that you're willing to do something that is personally offensive in order to advance your career," he added.
I agree with his statement as it pertains to the willing participants, it's his assertion that they were all willing that is complete bull*****
I don't think anyone here disagrees with you.

I think that is the only angle Weinstein's attorney can play.

Sounds about right.

Pretty light on the details.

Always curious how three separate harassment claims come in at one time.

I actually likes his quote at the end of the article. Variety seemed to think it was pertinent/damning though.

seems to be a pretty clear pattern with him. Very similar to Weinstein.

I may be predisposed to believe him because I enjoyed the grinder recently but this sounds like made up bull **** to me.

Meh... I can see it from him. I never watched his corky show and I forget he's grown up but he's a creepy looking grown up.

It's not rape by any means in the case of the willing, but isn't this still commercial bribery?

Oh, well case closed then.

One time, Hwang claims, Savage "violently struck her arm three times with his hand" after she dusted dandruff off his jacket while on set.
Pretty much the same as rape.

Robyn Byrd and Katie Rice were teenage Ren & Stimpy fans who wanted to make cartoons. They say they were preyed upon by the creator of the show, John Kricfalusi, who admitted to having had a 16-year-old girlfriend when approached by BuzzFeed News.

Just...geez. I never knew much about him and would have assumed he was kind of a weird dude, but...geez.

I'm pretty sure this was discussed earlier in the thread, but it looks like an arrest has now been made...

Ok I just read the article.....can someone help me out here? No doubt these women were sex slaves, but sounds like none of them were forced to do it or held captive. Couldn't have they just left the cult at anytime?

they used the scientology MO of threatening to release personal info and explicit photos of the girls if they were to try to leave.

Random thing to bring up but, why was Charlie Sheen butt****ing a 13 year old boy not a bigger story?

Hell, Paterno was a huge story for months (who just had an HBO movie released about him), and his was just an act of omission.

b) Where did this Sheen story come from? I just haven't heard it.

i can only surmise that its cause sheen has enough resources to cover it, and the defending party is deceased.

he definitely likes to dabble in cock though according to the many prostitutes that hes employed

Better 40 years later than never. Will they actually rescind his Oscar seeing as how he was awarded the trophy during his escape from justice?

Booting him from the Academy at this point in time means nothing if they let him keep his tainted Oscar.
