No I don't believe they will be punished either.

i think kevin spacey is done for as he attacked men and boys and so many of them

The others - as long as it's girls over about 12 or women - that's not a big deal.

I don't think me too will make any difference either we have had things like this before and everyone wrings their hands then it's back to business as usual.

I wish all jurisdictions would abandon having statutes of limitation - ideally for all sexual offences, but especially for sexual abuse/rape of minors. I agree wholeheartedly.

Meryl Streep leading a standing ovation at an awards ceremony was an unedifying spectacle.

Four women/ girls. I had no idea there was more than 1 and that was bad enough.

Wonder what all the famous people who signed that thing in support of him have to say now? Whoopie " not rape rape" Goldberg is the only one I remember offhand but there were loads.

I wish all jurisdictions would abandon having statutes of limitation - ideally for all sexual offences, but especially for sexual abuse/rape of minors. It's obvious to anyone with half a brain that victims of underage sexual abuse often don't feel able to come forward until years, decades even, after the event. Their abusers should not get off on a technicality.
