"Resolved through the law" isn't really a fair attitude towards victims. Most of the time you have things past the statute of limitations or beyond the point when they could have any evidence, or in this case you have accusations that don't sound technically criminal, but still bad.


Sorry dude, you've got years to bring up charges of sexual assault and what not. And if those other things aren't illegal, then it is what it is. People are capable of making their own decisions as to whether or not to leave a relationship. If what they're doing isn't illegal, what are we supposed to do?

The punishment of court of public opinion is different than the law's punishment. You don't get thrown in jail when you lose a TV show. Losing a TV show sucks but you hope their career can recover if they were totally innocent. There really isn't much you can do that can satisfy everyone.


That's very nearly as bad as going to prison except it requires absolutely no proof. That's awful. To be able to ruin a person's career because of an accusation is a terrible thing. Hence it should be handled through the law.

Don't act like losing a career isn't awful because for a lot of people, that's something they've worked their entire life for. This dude (among others) will never be able to work in the industry again. Hell, he'll likely be chased out of any position above being a cashier at McDonalds as soon as people start harassing his workplace.

If someone got me fired from my job, which I've worked a lot of hours and put in years of my life to achieve, I'd probably end up killing myself.
