“Respect his privacy”. He should’ve respected E.M. bodily autonomy.
So he’s charged, can we drop him and get that cap space now? How does it work?
Obviously a terrible situation, but let’s hold off on the witch hunt until there is a conviction. We have a judicial system for a reason. Nobody knows what happened that night, and nobody knows the extent of what happened.
Virtue signaling isn’t going to do anything for anybody, because at the end of the day we are all a bunch of bozos on the internet. Downvote me all you want, but all of you know that I’m right.
Cut him
Ill be downvoted into oblivion once again, but if there is zero new evidence beyond what was originally leaked to the public last year (and originally deemed as not strong enough to charge in 2019) then it is going to be insanely difficult to convict these men.
Remember the Duke lacrosse kids getting crucified only to find out in court she made it up? Im not saying this is the case here, just saying I recommend waiting until you know.
Okay…so he was involved. Hope he enjoys prison and the KHL. Now release these bums
Wow, lotta comments here taking a very different tone than I would have expected. Not surprised by the “let’s wait and see what happens in court” ones, but the “she probably changed her mind afterward and is just after money” ones are the kind of thing I wish fewer people felt comfortable saying out loud.
the court of law and the court of public opinion don’t have the same onus of proof. if there’s enough to bring a SA charge against McLeod, you don’t have to “HURR DURR WAIT FOR DE FACTS TO COME OUT” to form your opinion.
