Yep. “A dozen of people came forward calling him a creep but we couldn’t technically prove SA” is cold comfort

I still get a sick feeling in my stomach when I hear his name or see his face. I don’t really care if he was acquitted, honestly. As great as an actor as he was, that doesn’t make up for the fact that he was such a shitty person that multiple people felt the need to accuse him of crimes (which he admitted to, but somehow still got acquitted of).

Same here mate. As its said where it’s smoke there is fire.
The issue with these types of charges is that there is often not enough evidence to convict. I’ve got a hard time beliving that he is innocent when there is so many people that has accused him of this. It’s really a shame that the victims did not get belived.

What if he didn’t do anything, and there are a handful of people trying to take advantage of his money/fame? I don’t think that’s what’s happening, but I don’t know. I would like to think that he was not convicted, so I trust the courts, because if you can’t trust the courts then society is on seriously rocky ground. But I don’t really trust the courts. Shit, I’m giving myself a headache.

In principle I trust in the judicial system… But when you are talking about a multimillionaire that can throw his whole fortune on this then I get sceptical.
By all means he might be innocent. But when there is so many people accusing him… I don’t see why they would put themselves trough all this media outcry just for a payday. By all means it’s a possibility… But just look at the Harvey Weinstein case…
I’m not sure by all means that he’s guilty. For all we know he has done nothing of what has been claimed… But when there is so many people coming out with their stories it’s hard not to think there is more to it.
