Trump endorsed a candidate accused, tried, and convicted in the court of public opinion on charge of inappropriate relations and contracts with young females, one only 14. Yes, Moore is sick and twisted.
A conviction by the court of public opinion does not make Moore sick and twisted. There is NO evidence, allegedly it happened decades ago, Moore has been a public figure for years, any reasonable person would wonder why these women decide now is the time to come forward. What are we suppose to think? These women are OK letting their assaulter become a judge, but not a Senator. Richard Jewel was convicted by the court of public opinion too, and it was folks like you who essentially ruined an innocent man’s life.
Richard Allensworth Jewell (born
Richard White;
[1] December 17, 1962 – August 29, 2007) was an American police officer and security guard. While working as a
security guard for
AT&T, he became known in connection with the
Centennial Olympic Park bombing at the
1996 Summer Olympics in
Atlanta, Georgia.
[2] Discovering a backpack filled with three pipe bombs on the park grounds, Jewell alerted police and helped to evacuate the area before the bomb exploded, saving many people from injury or death. Initially hailed by the media as a hero, Jewell was later considered a
suspect. Jewell's case is considered an example of the damage that can be done by reporting based on unreliable or incomplete information.
