It is a ridiculous concept.

Tell me more about this please?
If there was an justice in the world, the core members of the BRF would be dragged screaming from their palaces and torn to shreds in the streets. The rest would be dissolved, disbanded and forced into hiding.

I remember this being sort of major news a few years ago, but I can't find anything from a 'credible' news source now, but MSM does have a history of protecting high profile pedo's. So you're forced to fringe news sources:

Not great sources, but their certainly is a precedence for this sort of thing:

Maybe he realized the futility of it all and gave up the good fight?..

The fringe? More like the fringe of the fringe of the fringe. The source is basically one unhinged guy. Thanks a lot for starting me down this particular rabbit hole so that now Google thinks I'm interested in this garbage and their algorithms are going to be showing me more of this crap for the next little while.

Digging into it a bit more, I do see that ITCSS isn't credible. The key witness, William Coombes, and his testimony and death both appear to be real:





The guy that brought up the charges, Vivian Cunningham, also appears to be a real person. It sounds like some internet sleuths have tried to follow up on this story and contacted the hospital he was put in, which confirmed he had been there, but beyond that his current whereabouts are unknown.


http://www.starshipearththebigpictur...ntal-hospital/

All the debunking of the story I've found focuses on the legitimacy of the ITCSS (which I agree is pretty hokey), but I didn't come across anything that debunked the existence of these two individuals and their stories.


Without the context of the royal families clear ties to pedophilia and the horrors of the residential school system (ran by the catholic church), this would be a pretty flimsy story. I must admit that the Queen being inserted into this story could be pure fiction and that this may just be another case of the Catholic church stealing, raping and killing children.

Not that I would ever want to get in the way of a good royal family pedo story but the Royals have nothing to do with the Catholic Church ever, if they are going to diddle its with a good god fearin' Anglican orphanage

Good, I'm a bit surprised, because of the burden of proof. But good, I'd say enjoy prison for the rest of your life Harvey, but its likely that this thing will be appealed for years to come while He sits in his luxury homes on bail.

Not necessarily, the judge ordered him directly to jail, and it's entirely possible that he gets denied bail during his appeal.

Chris Matthews from MSNBC suddenly retired and it sounds like he has a lot of trouble brewing against him.

Wow check out Kate Beckinsale's Instagram for a Weinstein story. Bullying story of the highest order of something that happened shortly after 9/11.

He's a pig through and through.

Accusations are really piling up against male comics recently.
Today was Jeff Ross. The last few days have seen some horrible stories come to light about Joey Diaz, Chris Delia and Brian Callen.

Joey Diaz had admitted to some horrible stuff on stage so I’m not surprised. D’elia is typecast as a pedo so he must be pretty dumb if he’s into young girls. I don’t know about the other two but #### them if it’s true.

Ron Jeremy, one of the most iconic figures in the adult entertainment industry, has been charged with sexually assaulting four women in West Hollywood since 2014, prosecutors said Tuesday.


Jeremy, whose legal name is Ronald Jeremy Hyatt, was charged with forcible rape,forcible oral copulation and sexual battery, according to a news release from the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office.



Prosecutors allege Jeremy attacked a 25-year-old woman at a West Hollywood home in 2014. Prosecutors also accused Jeremy of sexually assaulting two women at a West Hollywood bar in 2017 and raping a woman at the same bar in July 2019.

Quote:
In total, Jeremy faces three counts of forcible rape, two counts of sexual penetration by force, two counts of sexual battery and one count of forcible oral copulation, according to the criminal complaint. He faces up to 90 years in prison if convicted as charged, according to prosecutors, who said they would seek upwards of $6 million bail during a court hearing Tuesday afternoon.

Don't know a lot about Joey Diaz, but the other three come across as huuuuge #######s, so it wouldn't surprise me to hear that any of them are rapists.
