PPQer Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 I just read that the jury is still out. Imagine what it must be like to be waiting on 12 people to decide how you will live the rest of your life. And then going into the courtroom, standing before a judge, and waiting while the verdict is read. That has got to be pure hell. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Historian Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 It's a tense thing to endure on all sides. Really. The pressure on those in the jury is heavy too. A friend of mine narrowly escaped being on a death penalty case and he was just so happy that he didn't get chosen because he didn't like the idea of being the one who made the choice one way or the other on the suspect. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huaco Kid Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 We once gave a neighborhood "kid" room and board for 64 years (Texas). One or two people were upset, but went along with it. No one else felt bad about it. At all. (One guy said, "He lives down the block from me. I've known him his whole life. That's my vote, you'll never change my mind.") 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walt Longmire Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 I sat in on a 6 week murder trial with a friend of mine about 15 years ago. He was found not guilty of murder in the 1st and 2nd, but was found guilty of manslaughter. He got 5 years with credit for time served and some time off for good behavior. The other guy is still dead. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheygriz Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 I'm glad that there is finally some outrage over this. I remember 50 years ago, EVERY director in Holly-wierd had his own "Casting Couch.' 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheygriz Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 I remember a helluva lot of young actresses in the 50s complaining that their ""performance" on the couch had a bigger bearing on being cast than their screen tests. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PPQer Posted February 24, 2020 Author Share Posted February 24, 2020 One of the accusers admits to having had consensual sex with Weinstein on several occasions. It would be hard to convict him based on her testimony alone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While the legality of some of what Weinstein did is debatable (aside from the rapes of course) he is the scum of the Earth. 12 hours ago, PPQer said: One of the accusers admits to having had consensual sex with Weinstein on several occasions. It would be hard to convict him based on her testimony alone. That is an issue. Doesn't fix the "scum of the Earth" part but that could cast doubt on if it was illegal. 19 hours ago, Walt Longmire said: Weinerstien. Toss him in prison with Weiner. And Cosby. They can all share shots of Pruno. Don't forget Sandusky. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
