How many people have been taken down by the MeToo movement? How many will be forgiven in time. Wasn't the outcome of that movement to believe the accuser, making the accused guilty until proven innocent?
People do make mistakes and forgiveness is important. It sure seems a lot easier to get forgiven when you are extremely popular and wealthy.

I think it's more to do with the reality of the person's life. Weinstein made a living as a rapist. Cosby. Gomeshi was a super dbag. MJ did kids. Tyson was crazy and dangerous but is making some progress. I put Mike Vic in this category as well. I hated him but he's trying to make amends. Kobe was bad once but learned and made some decent changes and has some positive effects in his life. It's weird to rank these guys but there is something to it. He's not Weinstein.
