    I hope they get a fair trial, are allowed to present their defense, and are treated properly by the courts as defendents.

    If they’re found guilty I hope they’re given a very long sentence in a very dark hole. No, I won’t shed a tear if they’re convicted. They’re both human pieces of shit. If they’re tried and convicted pieces of shit then the world will be a little bit better while they’re incarcerated.

      On one hand I’m pretty sure we all can be pretty confident he’s guilty

      On the other I wish everyone acted more like this instead of treating the idea of making a rich person go to court to find out the truth like it’s an attack

          Trying to silence discussion of politics is itself a tacit endorsement of the status quo.

            I think Jonny’s comment was about the Trump reference in an article about a British man human trafficking women in Romania. No one is trying to silence discussion

            True, but Trump is only tangentially related to Tate. If the discussion went further comparing their followers, that would be on topic.

              It’s a single line at the end making light of their similarities. He wasn’t trying to make this website all about American politics as suggested.

      The evidence for sex trafficking is overwhelming. He snitched on himself over and over, and all that stuff is admissible. So ya, fair trial or not, he belongs in prison. Everyone deserves a fair trial.

      It’s even better for everyone that hates him to let him have at it in a fair trial. Why? Because he won’t be able to claim he’s been wronged. He will have had his chance, and if they convict him, it’s proper to call him a rapist.

      Let’s give him a fair trial so we can make his new status official.

        Oh they’ll claim his been wronged no matter what. Still, fair trial is the best outcome.

          But for at least some, it will burst the bubble of him as this miracle money printer. Instead, he’ll be the fraudster that got caught.
