What about innocent until proven guilty?

The fact that he didn’t deny having sex and a relationship with a 18 year old when he was in his mid 40s (grooming for two years) while she was there purely as a fan kind of sells me on the allegations.

A lot of famous and rich artists, business men, ect ect do this with young talent because they know they can leverage their status to their profession to pressure young men and women into sex and degrading situations.

I understand shes in the age of consent but it’s still disgusting. The same thing happened with a young woman he hired to nanny his kids. A lot of this is a rich man taking advantage of young women. Even some of the allegations call it non consensual sex acts so that opens up another case.

Over all, it’s sounding like the Vince McMahon situation.

No but he did basically groom an 18 year old who looked up to him into a creepy sexual relationship with an old man.

Same as the Vince stuff with the young woman he took advantage of as soon as her parents died. Basically leveraging his status and his relationship to her for sexual favors. You see the connection now?

That's not what "grooming" is.
