This crap needs to end.

These women have direct evidence ranging from absolutely NONE, to minimal and circumstantial, and the minimal appears to be inadmissible as hearsay.

"Hearsay" means it happened to somebody else and they told you and you say it in court. It doesn't refer to direct testimony about things that happened to you.

How much corroborating evidence was there in the Cosby trial? If there are enough witnesses with enough credibility, the case could stick.

"This crap needs to end."

And not just this crap.

Once upon a time, I was unquestionably anti-racist in my attitudes, sympathetic to the plight of those who claimed sexual harassment, tolerant of gays and lesbians, and considerate of those with political and religious beliefs different from my own.

It's all quite rapidly slipping away.
