    I know! I didn't believe it at first but now I'm not so sure.

    But, why wait for 40 years to tell as at least one of them has done? M.o.n.e.y.

    No matter what the real truth is, the whole thing is just very sad.

    I can totally understand why women would have kept silent for so long though. It takes a tremendous amount of courage, not to mention money to go up against a rich, influential celebrity. Someone with wealth and power and a low moral compass wouldn't think twice about trying to rip apart and destroy their detractors, especially those who are young, vulnerable, and alone with limited resources. In this case, there is truly power in numbers - it's much easier to be believed once others come forward.

    I couldn't believe this when I read it. I agree that money probably has a lot to do with since it happen so long ago. I saw where someone defaced his star in hollywood. I wonder what the truth is and why if he is innocent he isn't denying it more loudly. Must be humiliating for his family.

    I read about it for the first time today. A few months ago there was this about Gene Simmons's friend from his teenage years, and the guy who introduced Simmons and Stanley to each other: http://ultimateclassicrock.com/steph...graphy-arrest/
    Excuse my language, but I just have to say that I can't believe how much shit like this is happening on this planet.

    When you read this stuff, you always go "I hope he's innocent", but the fact remains that, in cases like the child pornography case above, someone has done it and it's not less tragic if it's not guy you know.
    As for the Cosby case, I hope that none of those women were raped and they're all just making it up and Cosby's name will be cleared, but somehow it's not so easy to believe. There's so much stuff like this around that I wouldn't surprised if he had done those things. And this is a sad thing to say.
    Having said all that, I sort of went "ah, I'll get it" when I read that one of the "victims" had said that she wants 100 million dollars.
