From... Lizzo's?

Keeping it classy it seems. Because the heart of any sexual harassment issue is always how hot or not something is in the readers head.

Jog on. I'm quite happy to make a joke at her expense considering how much of a hypocritical piece of s--t it seems she is.

that is odd. he really must have done something to piss off the Scientology bosses.
Maybe Masterson supported someone who was trying to unseat Miscavige and paid for it.

I mean...I hate to be 'that guy' but a wealthy and famous Scientologist gets 30 years?
I dont know what he did or who he pissed off...but maybe we should just all be glad he's in jail for 30 years....good riddance to bad rubbish.

Funny that the first thought is that somehow he didn't have a defense that could get him off, rather than, you know, justice actually being served. Perhaps it's such a rare thing these days it's tough to comprehend it happening.

He almost did get off. His first trial was a mistrial with the majority of the jury voting to acquit on all 3 charges.

The details are pretty disturbing. If the testimony is true, which the jury believes it was, then 30 years to life is easily justified. It wasn't just a case of him taking advantage of inebriated girls, but he apparently drugged them, beat them, and brandished a gun as well. The Church of Scientology really needs to be investigated more as well. The fact they paid one of the victims $400k not to talk is pretty troubling. They also said the Church was stalking them and their families.
I don't know what actual physical evidence they had or if the conviction was mostly due to compelling testimony. If it was just one victim, he probably would have gotten away with it, but the fact all three have very similar stories helped get the conviction I think.

I read an absolutely disgusting article in the national post today about Canadian jail sentences for people who kill children under the age of 3.
Average 5-7 years sentence. Probably 1-3 actual years in jail for some of the most heinous crimes I've ever heard of. Do not read the article, trust me. It makes me want to take up a vigilante mantle and murder all of those people in the slowest, most painful ways I can come up with. That is not in jest and I truly believe those people deserve it.
Sorry for the OT

If true, very disturbing.
