Forensic analysis of the trial and the sometimes misguided picture the media is painting of the proceedsings at the Weinstein trial.
Well worth a read.

A man shouldn’t go to jail just because some women regret having sex with him to advance their careers.

Ugly guy uses his money and influence to ingratiate himself with lots of pretty aspiring actresses and try to have sex with them. We hate him for being ugly but... did he do anything illegal?

Disturbing to see how quick some posters are to defend Harvey W.

Says more about them than Weinstein. And it isn't good.

Well, he is certainly accused of doing many illegal things. Only some of which are on trial here. Did he actually do them? That's for the jury to decide based on the evidence they were presented.

If he's found innocent. In a few days, you will see him walking fine without that walker. Celebrities love to show up on court day with some kind of an injury. With a cast on, a walker, a neck brace, even in a wheelchair. Thats a lawyers ploy to get sympathy from a jury. Remember that mob guy on trial. Would show up to court in his pajamas trying for the crazy plea.
