why the gently caress are you stanning so hard for Mignogna. Were you part of his fan club at one point or something because goddamn does the post make you look almost as dumb as Vic's lawyers. You say Vic is being exploited which implies he's somehow a victim in all of this when it's fairly obvious that his initial response of barely copping to anything in his long and sordid history of being a lovely person at conventions (to put it lightly) shows that he thinks that he's not in the wrong outside of getting caught. He's all in with the assholes who support him and willingly accepts their help rather than trying to engage in contrition and getting help in how to not be a lovely person and to not take advantage of any fan that comes up to him and fawns over him. I doubt he's never been told not to do the things he did with fans unless you think he's lived in a bubble his entire life where he's told he can do whatever he likes as long as his version of God says it's okay. Remember that his bullshit has been an open secret for almost a decade so to assume that he was never, at any point, told that some of the poo poo he was doing might've not been a good idea is idiotic at best. He doesn't deserve the benefit of the doubt after it's gone on for so long without actual repercussions.

I'd really like to see more proper articles done about this because there's some obvious legal subtleties that go over my head and even with so many eye poring over this, I'm sure there are extra gems that need to be highlighted either from previous hearings or that'll come up in future ones.

SweetWillyRollbar posted:Between this and the Musk hearing I'm having a real good time. Something really funny about incompetent legal fumblings even if I don't understand the finer points. At least with Vic, it's not that he's necessarily incompetent. It's his attorneys. With Musk, it's all him.

Hub Cat posted:Nah if it was an actual court order one of the twitter lawyers would have posted it by now. Its probably just a preservation letter, basically the d's lawyers giving them an unfriendly reminder of their duty not to destroy evidence relevant to litigation, probably enumerating the kinds of documents they are interested in, and making sure they know litigation is pending. A least one or more of those people are totally gonna try and destroy evidence.

FilthyImp posted:Oh gently caress me Star Trek Continues was actually a half decent effort of course it has to be tainted now loving pedo. There was an event in Georgia last week or so for Star Trek Continues and Mignogna was there to promote it. Of the one article I saw about it, none of them talked about his sexual assault or his lawsuit

The whole mugshot website thing in Florida is just a weird side effect of the Sunshine Law which made most state documents (including mugshots) public record.

Fwiw, one of the reasons he only sorta came back to interest because a recent ex of his decided to spill some tea about him calling her a side piece while she was in the same chat or something. There's also some of his legal fees that came due and a whole clusterfuck over that.

Regalingualius posted:Basically, it was an open secret for many years that he was a creep. Then an anime news site penned an article a few years ago about the accusations, his biggest employers launched their own investigations and promptly shitcanned him, and a couple of his former colleagues came out with their own stories about his misbehavior. He tried to sue them with a lawyer who very plainly had no loving idea what he was doing, he lost, and has only been compounding his losses with his failed attempts to appeal the case. It was only the one major appeal iirc and that sent it from 100k to ~350k and with the agreed interest rate what it is, it's speculated that he's paying pretty soon so it's likely he just wants to finish this. as for why now, it's probably just fatigue over it and that he doesn't have his lovely council telling him bad advice.

Wiggly Wayne DDS posted:eh not exactly. this is something people repeat verbatim but it comes back to 'sexual predator' being a term of opinion as the court of appeals said (it's a very broad ill-defined category and noted as used in exaggeration by the court), but i don't recall any explicit clarification on 'paedophile' itself re: vic in the court docs. like we can all agree he is nevermind those hosed up videos of him that've came up. Greg and other barred lawyers in texas are more than happy to remind everyone how much of a creep he is with that term too, but it does muddy the waters a bit on what is and isn't a defamatory statement - and i'm sure they dance on that line perfectly but that doesn't mean anyone commenting on the case can He has nonconsensually kissed (not on the mouth) underaged girls at cons as well as hugged and grabbed them without consent. He's given his number to underaged fans too. No sexual acts or things approaching that nature have ever been confirmed, but he's gotten close and is almost indistinguishable based on some of his actions.
