    Yes? It’s orders of magnitude easier to get someone to make false accusations than to fix the court system. Not sure that’s a controversial statement.

      So do you think these accusations were done in preparation, or someone has a serious grudge against Russell, or are we all being retconned?

        Could be anything, yeah. Could be because they want to extract wealth from him, could be because they don’t like what he says. Or he could have actually raped someone. You don’t know and neither do I
