dude, please stop just saying shit- I respect you, but sometimes you post stuff without thinking....
1. there was no one coming forward 20 30+ yrs ago
2. a normal person wouldn't be sued for defamation- because they issued a blanket denial of multiple claims of assault.
the fact that one of the suits was thrown out with prejudice on first amendment grounds - should give you an idea of the gymnastics combined with smoke and bullshit these lawyers have been pulling for the last 2 years!
3. why ask - "why no one has heard from him"- when every denial he initially made was used to file bullshit defamation lawsuits like the one we are discussing in this very thread ?
