Interesting! I didn't follow this case, but I do remember Kevin spacey posting a very strange video a ways back in which he acted... Very creepy about the situation.

Anyone following the case have any thoughts?

I remember seeing those videos when they came out, and they were unsettling to say the least. I definitely have my thoughts on the case, but I think by far my strongest thought is that it's not up to randos like me to decide. I hate what the #metoo movement morphed into. There's someone else in here calling other SA survivors insane psychopaths, and this is the norm now. It's like most people think it's black and white, and that you can tell who's guilty or innocent from a couple of youtube videos. The reality is that unless you're the accuser or the accused, you don't know. And unless you're the judge and jury, it's not up to you nor should it be.
