CastAway 488 Posted January 27, 2022 Assuming her side has been honest in that she's not in it for the money and she doesn't settle... There's really only one of two reasons he'd want to take it to the people, I think: 1. They've got some heretofore unannounced dirt of her that will completely tank her believability among the public and get him an acquittal 2. He's deluded enough to think the public at large believes him Given that BBC interview, I'm thinking more the latter than the former. (again, this is all given that it's not about the money, that the case will make it to a jury, etc. etc.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Every time he is in the press his reputation sinks further. A trial would not rescue his reputation even if he destroyed her’s. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slackhurst Broadcasting 374 Posted February 15, 2022 I remember once getting a £5 note on which somebody had given the Queen a goatee beard and glasses, and having some discussion about whether that was one of the things for which you could still be hanged. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TBF, if you were an individual with serious money at your dispense and you had the power to instantly end something which could drag on in the courtrooms for years to come, I know which option I'd choose.

Tbf, both sides have played it cuntishly. He looks as guilty as fuck now and she , the shy, retiring & doesn't seek publicity victim, looks like some sort of money whore who has taken the coin rather than pursue some sort of legal redress/ justice for herself and all the other victims of Jeff and his pals.

They actually deserve each other. Oh I don’t disagree. She’s most likely been advised to take the money, by someone interested in money and not justice, and as a result that’s exactly how she looks. The whole thing demonstrates how fucked the justice system is. But hey, might as well wind up a crank with the story 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was quite amusing watching big wig lawyer Lisa Bloom on the news recently, adamantly defending Giuffre, saying that this was a big trial for sexual abuse and women's rights etc. (basically going on a rant, playing on ppl's Twitter hashtag movements and emotional heart strings)... ... the same Lisa Bloom who defended Harvey Weinstein and Roy Price. ... yup, it's totally not about money.
