Regarding your views about the women who may be "blamed" for refusing to walk away from power, the high life, and big ambitions--I don't blame them, but that was a choice they made as adults. The law does not protect those who choose to be sexually humiliated and degraded. That's not how the law works.
I feel sorry for these women at the same time as I admire them for speaking out. But the law can't protect them. Maybe they should have settled for a humbler life and maintained their dignity and self-worth.
Well said, Phyllis, 100% well said. This country has not only failed to make progress with women's basic rights to dignity (or citizenship, for that matter), but we've taken enormous steps backward with anti-women healthcare laws and the entire Trump-era permission to "go ahead and grab their pu--ys." I have shed a lot of naivete about humanity in general, no longer believing that our species is on a gradual evolution upward; in terms of the predilection of some for violence, greed, exploiting others, and chasing power at any cost, we have made no progress, ever.
I believe we'll see this antisocial era play out, and maybe in our lifetime, see some pro-social leadership reclaim things for a while. Dear Great Spirit, let kick-ass, "bring-it-on" FDR reincarnate soon. Kick him off his cloud and send him back down!
Men's paraphilias are dangerous and they have only increased after 30 years of Internet porn. The perverts are well organized. We are living in the Revenge of the Pervert Nerds era. Investors in porn websites are amassing huge amount of data and using extortion to further their agendas.
Comey's daughter was the prosecutor. Did she overreach on purpose.?Very possible. RICO is money laundering. It sounded more like slavery and orgies. Very Romanesque
HIs victims? They will have to scrounge for money to pay their therapists, psychologist, and/or psychiatrist.
And if any of them snap (or God forbid take their own lives) that will be their fault too, and he will “get to be right “on that as well. Look these people were sick in the head they lied! He is a sadistic bastard. May he rot in hell
And may his victims heal
Or at least come to the place where they make peace with themselves and know that they did the best that they could do in that moment.
I did not watch or read about the trial so I can't comment about the evidence and testimony, but I agree with the email, below. Any adult, male or female, who voluntarily participated in the orgies made a choice. Some are willing to do anything to avoid a run-of-the-mill life.

A sad situation for all his “victims”.
I hope he serves time in jail.

Oh hell no!!!
He has money he has fame and he has an image.
He will profit from this
And he will come out as a victimized black man.
The jurors will make money.
HIs victims? They will have to scrounge for money to pay their therapists, psychologist, and/or psychiatrist.
