If convicted, he faces 90 years!
That's shocking, he seemed like a real class act🙄
shareI can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not. But despite his career, I have seen interviews of him on Youtube and watched him on the 'Surreal Life' and he does come across as a genuine, friendly non-threatening guy. Very intelligent too. I would be very surprised if he was capable of doing this. I wouldn't be surprised if the accusers only want his money which happens alot with celebrities especially in this whole dreaded MeToo movement. Destroying innocent peoples' lives with false accusations with no evidence for profit.
shareJust tongue in cheek
Who can ever tell, let the court sort it out
How do you prove something (especially a sex crime) did or did not happen when it allegedly occured YEARS ago? I do have a problem with people bringing up allegations now and not years back then. It would be easier to get DNA sample (semen, blood, hair, etc) and nab the pervert if it was early on and not 20 yrs later. It makes me believe some "victims" are disgruntled and wanting a payday for revenge.
shareOh, surely some are false accusations
The only thing we have are the courts
That's a problem isn't it? It's also why so many women don't even bother.
I can't say what these women's motivation is, but unless they are selling stories to tabloids I'm not sure they are looking for a payout. This is going to criminal court, and they aren't suing him from anything that I've read.
If people aren't guilty, why would they pay out? That's always my question to statements like "It makes me believe some "victims" are disgruntled and wanting a payday for revenge." I just know that if I wasn't guilty of something I would do my best to make sure that I had my day in court. I know that people have unjustly been convicted of rape in the past, and that makes me sick too, but let's be honest that most of those were not rich white men. I just really hate the whole pay off situation with harassment and rape.
ITS EASY AND AVOIDS A MESSY TRIAL WHERE THE FAMOUS PERSON WILL COME OUT LOOKING LIKE SHIT WIN OR LOSE...THE REAL QUESTION SHOULD BE WHY "VICTIMS" ARE WILLING TO TAKE SAID SETTLEMENTS.
shareAnd how do they look when it finally comes out that they paid someone off? Guilty in my opinion.
I think that victims are willing to take settlements because the law doesn't take them seriously. Have you seen some of the things that judges have said to victims? Like " Why didn't you keep your legs closed or move lower so he couldn't penetrate you?" - that was Judge Camp. Or this from Judge Dean " as the gentlemen on the jury will understand , when a woman says no she doesn't always mean it. Men can't turn their emotions on and off like a tap as some women can".
I can't even imagine how difficult it must be for a victim who is male trying to get justice in court.
IF THATS HOW YOU SEE IT,THATS HOW YOU SEE IT...
shareWithout getting too personal, I've lived it. The justice system is stacked against victims of sexual abuse. Female or male.

Nope.
The reality is stacked against victims of sexual abuse. It's crime that it's a hell to prove because it's something that uses to be consensual and that happens in private, so proving it involves proving it wasn't consensual.
Actually, the burden of proof required in the case of sexual violence is way lower than in other crimes.
HAVE YOU SEEN THE DOCUMENTARY...PORN STAR:THE LEGEND OF RON JEREMY?...HE COMES OFF AS FRIENDLY,INTELLIGENT,HUMBLE,WITHDRAWN,SAD QUIT FRANKLY...IM GONNA BE IN RON'S CORNER ON THIS UNTIL I SEE PROOF OTHERWISE...THE GUY WAS A SPECIAL NEEDS TEACHER...HE ISNT YOUR STANDARD PORN MEAT.
shareI agree that he is not someone I ever thought I'd see that headline about.
shareAll those things can be said about Cosby too.
shareTHATS TRUE...ALTHOUGH COSBY SPENT YEARS CONVINCING US HE WAS WHOLESOME AND LOVABLE...RON HAS ALWAYS JUST BEEN RON...HE SEEMS MORE ON THE UP AND UP...THATS JUST MY FEELING.
shareI don’t think neither rape any woman accusing them. It’s all about the money.
share"HE SEEMS MORE ON THE UP AND UP."
Hehehehe. I see what you did there. ;)
can you work in the porn business and be a nice guy??
shareI THINK THEYRE ALL PROBABLY NICE...THEYRE GETTING PAID TO HAVE THE TIMES THAT MOST GUYS GET MEAN OVER NEVER HAVING..
sharei doubt that many of these guys have long term positive relationships with women
shareOH..NO DOUBT...WHAT I KNOW OF THE ADULT INDUSTRY AND ITS STARS FROM MY 20S IS THEY GENERALLY MARRY WITHIN THE BUSINESS IF THEY MARRY AND IT DOESNT USUALLY LAST,UNLESS THEYRE WAY OPEN...WHICH IS A WHOLE OTHER STACK OF ISSUES...
