I believe he will be using the "playbook" of Roman Polanski....

Ahh...The Meadows in Wickenburg.
Very Posh...and full of the rich and famous.
The place is beautiful...and feels like a country club.

I took a relative there for alcoholism.
Unfortunately, $75k later and two days after he came out,...he was drinking again.

Hopefully, Harvey will be more successful.

Does that mean old trump invade your dreams as well?

Maybe you should get some professional help. That all consuming fixation can't be healthy, can it?

All these years and all the alleged reports and the FBI is just now getting around to an investigation ?
Reeks of Comey , doesn't it ?

But but But... The Nutty Professor... not a porn.... he made that yo!



Actually that was pretty damn good

Seriously??

Anyways, this is mostly about taking advantage of the sea change and capitalizing on the Chinese buyout.

Ministry of Propaganda or Ministry Of Silly Walks (Monty Python reference)

worthless FBI, yeah they investigate a pervert but they won`t investigate a politician who has committed treason.it`s so much easier to go for the low hanging fruit than to actually do your job. worthless

I have a feeling he will take the suicide road, either by choice or force.

He probably has dirt on A LOT of powerful people. A man with nothing left to lose cant be left running around with all that info.

I hope that this investigation roots out every small detail of this mans activities, and that any resultant legal action taken against him in criminal court, is unfettered and unaffected by his fame and power, or by the expense of any legal team he may gather about himself.

No person who sees fit to put himself upon others in the manner that this man has been accused of, should be able to avoid the consequences of his actions, no matter how rich, powerful, or allegedly talented.

However, more than this, I hope the victims of his predations are able to come to terms with what has happened to them, that they are able to have emotional connections with colleagues, friends, family and significant others, which are not hindered or damaged by their experiences... all too often, this proves too much to hope for, but nonetheless, that is how I feel.

The damage which is done to the human psyche by this sort of predatory behaviour, often ripples through a victims entire life, which is one of many reasons that this sort of crime is so utterly hideous. I wish everyone affected by both the events being investigated, and indeed by the story breaking itself (which can cause other victims of other offenders to re-experience trauma), are surrounded at this time by people who love them, are being supported by people who have their best interests at heart, and the fierce determination to protect them both from the press, and the ghosts of what has been before, where ever and in whatever manner possible.

What a dreadful business.

Speaking of things the Russians made you do, have you noticed from the Weinstein tape that his justification to the model he groped sounds a lot like Donald Trump's Access Hollywood bragging?

"I'm used to it"
"I'm a very famous guy"
"When you're a star, they let you do it"

Yes they are eerily similar.

The only thing the trump tape was missing was a woman, admitting to being abused, asking not to be further abused and begging to be left alone.

Other than that, absolutely identical. You're pretty sharp, most people wouldn't have noticed the similarities.

Yes, now the remorse kicks in. Understandable, since it's probably been building up for 20 years.

Kind of like how his wife is going to divorce him now, because she obviously found out about all this when the news broke. She couldn't have had any prior knowledge.

Just more fake reactions, from the fake intellectuals of a fake "community" in that great #hole in the west.

I guess better late than never but many people in the industry (and out of it) have been aware of his behavior for a very long time.

He's too fat, the rope would break.

He could always shoot himself....in the back....from 10 feet away.

I wouldn't be heartbroken.

Gotta give good ol' Brad Pitt some credit

She described the nauseating experience to Pitt, who confronted Weinstein at a theater premiere. “Brad threatened Harvey,” a source told People magazine. “He got right in his face, poked him in the chest and said, ‘You will not ever do this to Gwyneth ever again!’” “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” star, who grew up in Springfield, Missouri, “made it clear there would be consequences” if Weinstein tried anything again — and “described it as giving Harvey a ‘Missouri whooping,’” according to the source. “He made it absolutely clear this was not going to happen again and it didn’t,” the source told the mag

Though I'm curious what a "Missouri whooping" would entail

Probably a Robert Ford type scenario you described earlier.
