I kind of agree with that, but what about if someone says you did something and you didnt? I mean to get back at you for something you did or didnt do? that also can happen...

So sad to read of her decline and ultimate suicide. I think there is a long string of similar suicides — River Phoenix, Erin Moran, Corey Haim, others? How many murders have there been? From the Black Dahlia to Phil Spector murdering Lana Clarkson.

In the late fifties-early 60s I worked at a recording studio in mid-town Manhattan.
One of the record producers who would buy studio time was Phil Spector. During a break one afternoon Phil liked to amble around the studio, proudly showing off his snub-nose Smith & Wesson 38.
There are many musicians who can tell stories about Phil taking out his weapon & waving it around during recording sessions. He was fascinated with guns.

This Nassar guy was pretty sick. He would bring the girls in to treat muscle issues and make them take their clothes off and would then stick his finger in everything and massage their breasts. In cases where girls complained they were told by other coaches it was necessary medical treatment, so it wasn’t just Nassar.

Yeah, Spector was really out there.

Great example of a guy with super talents in one domain who at the same time is a total nut job and shouldn't be allowed to walk around without a keeper.

Of course he can't walk around without a keeper now, but someone had to die in order to make it so.

And that someone was a female, so it kind of reinforces the point.

Those aren’t rumors!!!!! Bela and his wife are monsters!!!!! I am so glad they are finally OUT!!!! I’ve spoken to Dominique Morceau about this. Her book is excellent. I don’t know if he didn’t anything s3xually but he and his wife physically abused and emotionally tortured their girls. I’d gladly not win gold medals to have the athletes get the proper respect.

YOU know - my wife and I followed this case very carefully...and we just watched "Athlete A" on Netflix.

They went through in detail during the show about people blaming the victims - and I was curious if any Freepers would be LOW LIFE enough to do the same (because I was sure there would be). So I did a search - and there you are.

If you will watch "Athlete A" - you will see that DOZENS of these girls DID report - and were shamed by their coaches - threatened by the cops (at Michigan State) - made to sign NDAs (you know - like Trump does a lot) - etc.

Many of them tried to report.

But that doesn't matter. They were young teens. THe fact you would state this: "The people who do this stuff should be ostracized. and humiliated in the court of public opinion—of not a court of law" - about YOUNG TEEN GIRLS - who are not adults -

Makes you just a scum bag - a low life.

ANd you know what - if it ever happens to your granddaughter - and she reports it to the authorities like MANY of these did - I hope she isn't treated or IGNORED and SILENCED like EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE WERE.

You are a POS human being.

I think you need to carefully reread what he wrote.
