Speaking of wishing he wasn’t alive…
As much as my inner Nelson Muntz wants to point and laugh, there’s a bigger issue here that threatens all– an unproven allegation from an unnamed witness should not be enough to do this to anyone.
Show trials are the stuff of tyranny.
Besides, it’s not like plenty of famous “stars” much of America takes its political cues from didn’t get their willing start on the Hollywood casting couch, and like that hasn’t been a tradition.
My guess is if you took a look at “Jane Doe #1,” you’d find plenty of notches on that crotch.
Would rather not ‘count those notches’…but transactional carnal knowledge has long been the currency in places such as Hollywood, DC, and exec suites in-between. We’ve gone through the looking glass to a hell where unidentified allegedly aggrieved parties can destroy virtually anyone.
Roll in ‘testimony’ of unidentified witnesses, spies and provocateurs such as ‘Mr. Faderly’ who sat behind a screen in testimony to CONgress regarding, if memory serves, that little event at Waco.
Find the man, concoct or exacerbate the crime.
