and a 31 year old man sending a car to pick up a child from school is well dodgy, okay she was 'legal' but just for all he knew she could have been younger than 16

Any nonconsensual act is nonconsenual, I don't care who you are or what rockstar lifestyle you lead, you don't get to force someone.

Having said all that, I can understand why they didn't report it. I've spoke about this before but having sat through a rape trial with a close family member, from minutes after it was reported to the end of the trial, the way the victims are treated is horrific and I would never recommend anyone from even bothering

Don't get me wrong, im not defending the bloke, i've never liked his style of humour, it was never funny to me. All im saying is im not shocked a celeb with his power and reach back then was shagging around.

Of course he's vile and disgusting for having a 16 year old child picked up from school. He's revolting for forcing himself upon women against their will. And i know innocent until proven guilty and all that, but i have no doubt whatsoever that when told "no" he would have either convinced the woman, or just done it anyway. Knobs like him aren't used to the word no.

I do think he's guilty, and i hope justice is served. I was merely pointing out that this doesn't shock me in the slightest. Zizu asking "where does this end" well i bet there's plenty of male celebs from back then sh!tting themselves right now.
