Yeah, “a source close to the defense investigation” is a really reliable, impartial source. Somehow, the defense seems to have turned the entire press into its mouthpiece. Very strange.
The woman was probably not a model of virtue (and this was discussed even shortly after it happened), but that still doesn’t exonerate him. However, character destruction is stock in trade for defense attorneys, who are about one of the lowest forms of life out there.
And the funny thing, it’s the more conservative press organs that are being played by the defense team, if it is so. Of course those are the ones you would expect to make a stink about reported prostitution in a classy hotel.
