Mario Batali’s three Las Vegas Strip restaurants will shut down July 27, officials said Friday, as the celebrity chef faces sexual misconduct allegations from multiple women.

Batali & Bastianich Hospitality Group partner Joe Bastianich sent a letter to nearly 300 workers about the closures of Carnevino Italian Steakhouse, B&B Ristorante and Otto Enoteca e Pizzeria at The Venetian and Palazzo resorts. He promised to visit the restaurants to speak to employees.

Wow. I knew essentially nothing about this guy, and almost always make my own pasta sauce, but recently saw his pre-made sauce in a grocery store and bought some (it was good, but definitely not as good as what you can make at home with the right ingredients). At this point I wouldn't be surprised if Flipper, Lassie, Scooby Do, and Casper were charged with sexual harassment.

I hope and pray this is a sign that the pedophile industry and the satanic cabal are being swept up and destroyed.

Is there any evidence in this case?

I may have a bias, because a few years ago, I was on a jury which was considering a case of sexual assault.

The charge was that a man touched a woman’s breasts twice.

We the jury found the defendant not guilty of sexual assault charges. And our key reasoning was that there was no real evidence, it was he said/she said. We the jury reasoned that there was no way to know if he really did this. There was no physical injury reported, no evidence that the actions ever happened.

It was an unusual set of circumstances. Her car had broken down on the side of the road, and his car had a flat tire, so both were pulled over right behind one another on a road. She asked to use his cell phone. During this use of the phone, he allegedly touched her on the breasts.

Of course I think rape and sexual assault are very serious crimes. But in this case, there was just no evidence in the opinion of the jury.

I question how it is, that all of a sudden, cases from years ago are being reported and prosecuted.

With this whole Me Too movement, we still need to have due process, and everything has to be considered on a case by case basis.

An off-balance pictoral composition containing the playful use of the colors orange, white, and hospital green offset against contrasted shin bones!
