I remember when Ribery and Benzema and Berlusconi all had sex with the same underage prostitute and no one seemed to really care that much for some reason and then she became a celebrity in Italy?

She was underage to be a prostitute but over the age of consent and seemingly they were all able to prove they never gave her money for sex so hadn't broken the law

I didn't remember berlusconi being involved but it's probably less distressing than ribery still

I think berlusconi was a different underage prostitute from the Ribery/Benzema one. Ruby 'the heart stealer' or something like that.

I think the footballer link with her was that it came out in the trial that she was allegedly involved with a bunch of the Milan players at the time. Ruby “Rubacuori”, yeah.

From what I remember, this was not as big of a scandal as you might have expected because France's age of consent and prostitution laws allow for a lot of sleaziness.

I'm sure the club went and got one of those fancy super injunctions as soon as they found out their player was arrested.

Chiunque può essere Luther Blissett, semplicemente adottando il nome Luther Blissett

I think it was in regards of Giggs having an affair with his brother's wife

And the guy who did it caught poo poo from all sides, since the point is that you can't be sued for something that you say in Parliament in order to protect your rights in a democracy, not that it's free reign for you to shout troop movements or your favourite celebrity gossip. Non-zero chance that them doing it now could prejudice a police investigation and force them to drop it.

that plus someone would probably name the 3 (three) MPs currently being investigated for rape

As a Partey update, looks like the other party has decided to throw her accusations on twitter today: https://twitter.com/deffonotchaur/status/1552730396399468546

There's another post with a video showing it as Partey's account (has a video of him in the profile) so not a great look for the lad.

It’s really fuckin bullshit that Arsenal is still playing him like nothing happened. They did nothing when they got the report way back and they’re still doing nothing even when this is out in the public eye.

Vegetable

It’s dumb but people really do take their cues from the club on these things as well. When the allegations came out, most of the Arsenal subreddit was pretty sure they were legit and would have probably have accepted the club not playing him.

Now that the club is fully integrating him into preseasons and friendlies there’s now a much stronger momentum on the whole “innocent until proven guilty” spin. It’s rare to see anything negative about Partey posted anymore.

She’s posted a ton more stuff on her Twitter and apparently he already paid her and she may have returned it. She also posted an email from Partey’s lawyer threatening to sue her. It all looks very legit and his goose is very much cooked.

His goose is cooked how though? This is the problem, if there are no official steps taken against him legally then can he argue he hasn't breached his contract? So Arsenal don't play him but have to pay him, then presumably sell him to a club in a country that doesn't care. Not much punishment for what he did.

The cops are still investigating the two earlier rapes he did, by the way. They’ve just decided already not to charge him on this one because this happened overseas and their lack of jurisdiction was clear.
