He believed he could fly, so believing he was untouchable isn't much of a stretch.

Hmmm, yeah reading some of those testimonies and... they're absolutely horrific and done by someone who no doubt believed he was untouchable. Well, for like 25 years, he was. |

Do you think Steve Coogan will play him in a dramatisation too?

And ultimately that's what we need to hope outcomes like this can do: help to demonstrate quite clearly and publicly to these individuals that, despite their current wealth/status/levels of power, they will get caught eventually. Whether that's ultimately going to serve as enough of a deterrent, I don't know.

Same way that they let Weinstein violate women over the years. R. Kelly specifically though, didn't he court Aaliyah when she was around 15? That was pretty public and yet nobody did anything even back then. He married her when she was 15, but started grooming her when she was 12. The record company asked questions at the time and he told them they had a platonic friendship, they shrugged and said ok, cool |

He name drops “little cute Aaliyah” as having That Vibe amongst a long list of other girls names in his 1991 hit, she was born in 1979

We stand with victims (silently up until now), except any victims who accuse one of our friends, who (we will loudly and immediately proclaim) are obviously lying. Seems legit.

I read this earlier. Thankfully I'm unable to comprehend what would lead someone to act like that. Such a sick, sick bastard.

I'd like to imagine that somewhere tonight Steve Coogan is dressed in a shell suit and gold chains looking at himself in his dressing room mirror saying "what the fuck are you doing Steve" to himself.

Fucking hell.
Ms Danno received a summons for jury duty recently and was sort of excited about it as it's at the Old Bailey, until I pointed out that she may end up with a case like this sort of thing.

It's always the people you most expect. I was reading a Clive Barker novel set in Hollywood, written in like 1998, and there's this character who is a complete creep, and in retrospect, it's obvious he's based on Weinstein, particularly the physical description, and it's like, huh I guess people at least kinda-new all the way back then, even random British horror writers (of course Barker had been around Hollywood a bit by then). |

Coldheart Canyon is a great book! I think I remember the character you mean and you're probably right. I need to re-read that actually it's been too long. It's one of my fav Barkers.

I'm working my way through Catch And Kill on Sky which is an HBO doc about Weinstein. It was an open secret from the early 90's. The infrastructure of Miramax was built around keeping victims quiet by the sound of it. Weinstein would groom assistants, actresses, whoever to go up to his suite and have his way with, then denigrate and/or NDA them so they have no hope of working in the industry.
It's a fascinating documentary, which shows how fragile it was exposing him, even though everyone knew.

Did the MSM ever get to the bottom of whether or not he actually did have a mangina?
