That, I imagine, is how these situations come to be. Lots of victims who don't necessarily feel victimised, thinking they are isolated incidents. Perhaps they're even friends with the person who committed the assault. I sometimes see the person who assaulted me socially and I don't harbour any ill will towards them. These things can be incredibly complex...

That was quite a tough post to read, you have my support for relating what is clearly quite traumatic details of an experience that was for you not consensual

I know from my own experiences that some men make assumptions about a situation that are completely wrong.

I hope you have sought and received the necessary help and support needed to rise above this and have been able to move forward.

Agree with you, and I'm sure you are not alone in what you have described, individuals will react differently, just because it is years later should not diminish the impact, and should be given just a fair a hearing as something that happened yesterday.

On SkyNewsHD
Max just said he will still go to his children Charity.


He says these charges are on not true

[arista]

The papers will be all over him. I bet he's caused them no end of grief over the years, and the chance to stick the knife in will be far too tempting.

Salman already started a MC sex offences thread.


Arista should have searched


But he is not wise like Vicky.



Can a good mod merge them please.

No I did not know the title to search
my first post was a Live Event.

The fact there is now 4 threads on Max
just means no mod has merged them all.

oh dear max

you have been busted

Vermin.

I wonder who's going to do his PR?

[arista]

One British girl was 15
he met in 1977 in Spain
and gave her a card of his office.

I guess she may have thought he would get her into being a model
in his Office loads of photos of stars.

[Nedusa]

I reckon Dave Lee Travis will be getting seriously worried how it will turn out for him after this verdict on Max Clifford

[arista]

[Banksy? Last month, a painting of Max Clifford with his pants down, produced in the style of Banksy,
appeared on a wall in Battersea. The piece of graffiti was spotted by passersby on a building in York Road on March 28]

Well there you go... what's his sentence?

[Nedusa]

I would be surprised if he avoided a custodial sentence and due to the nature of his crimes he will have to sign the sex offenders register and be banged up along with all the nonces and paedos.

well as they say.......what goes around.. comes around

Looks like he may have to get used to the trousers and pants around the ankles pose

[arista]

He will be Sentenced at 2PM today

[Nedusa]

Informed legal opinion is that he will receive a sentence of about 2 years with 1 year suspended so he will go to prison and probably spend about 6 months inside.

When I say inside I mean inside an open prison with all the comforts of home. He should be able finally make a start on his memoirs...

Can you imagine the stuff he must know ?

It's sadly fitting that a sleazy sex offender is full of sleazy showbiz gossip. The blackmail he must have on so many people...

[arista]

His PR company is due to close today.
