Sentence 23 years, just for sexual harassment?


Even rape wouldn't got 23 years.

reply

It's ridiculous. He's clearly an asshole but this sentence is a joke.

reply

Did you actually read the news reports? No, he did not get 23 years "just for sexual harassment." He was convicted to 20 years for "a criminal sexual act" plus 3 years for rape in the third degree. He was acquitted of charges of "predatory sexual assault" and first-degree rape which could have imprisoned him for life.

reply

He's sixty-eight, so twenty-three years is the rest of his life. It's doubtful that a fat, out-of-shape slob like him will make it to his nineties.

reply

Maybe he'll take to running laps around the prison yard, get himself in shape and then become the inspiration for The Jericho Mile 2.

reply

Did you actually read the transcripts of the testimony the women he was found guilty of raping gave? Sorry but there is no way any reasonable person would have found him guilty of actual rape. A woman that is raped isn't going to bring her rapist to meet her parents. The whole thing was bullshit based on Harvey being a creepy old fuck that managed to become the poster boy for sexual harassment. Frankly there are real rapist that have raped kids that didn't get as long a sentence as he did.

Thank you Thomas998. There are a lot of ignorant, vile people who have been whipped up into a frenzy about Weinstein (some of it based on antisemitic tropes popular a century ago) because the Establishment media has told them he is a grotesque monster, but this man got nothing even remotely resembling a fair trial and I hope he's able to hire some Grade A lawyers to appeal his case especially now that the #MeToo "movement" is imploding alongside the more primal concerns of life and death during a raging pandemic. Even the New York Times is abandoning the fraudulent pseudo-progressivism of the despicable #MeToo malarkey.

Here we go again. Look up the testimony of sexual assault expert Dr. Ziv. She elaborates on how common what you say could never happen actually is.

Get back to us after you’ve been raped by someone you know and then you can better explain how you behave.

reply

Testimony of paid shill is more accurate. I have been on defense cases for many cases and the sad fact is I could find an expert witness to testify that the sun rose in the east. Expert witnesses are the biggest sham in court cases because idiots like yourself will believe all they say even when it is bullshit. Your Dr. Ziv is not a medical doctor nor does she specialize in adult rape, her specialty is child abuse where what she said about rape victims is correct for CHILDREN. But these were grown women not kids.

reply

You’re the idiotic jerk. Too bad the court disagreed with you. Maybe you can go visit your idol in prison A-hole.

reply

Lots of people in prison are innocent of the crime they were convicted of, Harvey wasn't convicted because he was guilty it was because of lions like you that want to find people you don't like guilty.

reply

You've been raped before?

reply

people get way more for way less. there are people doing more time for selling small amount of drugs. i am happy they locked his pervert ass up they should have done it earlier but at least they did throw the book at him

reply

That’s funny because it true. He’ll murder gets like 7 years.

reply

The power of feminism.

reply

reply

What a shame.

reply

Abuse of power...is the subtext, and what the story is really about.



reply

reply

He's the fall guy for Rose McGowan and all the other Me Too liars.
