PavlovsDogs Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 I'm inclined to believe sexual assault victims - but there are too many elements that make this smell fishy. 1) Why have these women NOT gone to the police with their accusations? 2) Why did the lawyer ask for a cash payout / shakedown, and then pursue additional allegations via... Instagram? 3) This lawyer sounds like a real piece of work: https://oaklandnewsnow.com/news/a-look-at-tony-buzbee-the-lawyer-and-trump-donor-accusing-texans-deshaun-watson-of-sexual-assault/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most NFL fans that I've come across today, and Jets fans I know think it's a bit too convenient that it happened now. The timing is just very very suspicious. I hope the Jets can get him for a discount now. I don't believe any of the allegations, not even a little bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then its believable... not when they announce they are looking for a payout You think this is made up? A police report may very well have been filed. In fact it almost certainly has - it takes times for those types of things. The woman says Watson insisted she focus on massaging his "inner thighs" and "inner glutes" -- while repeatedly telling her he's a professional football player. She claims Watson "got more aggressive" -- and eventually "coerced [Jane Doe] to move her mouth toward his penis, forcing [Jane Doe] to perform oral sex on him." The woman claims she never consented to the sex act ... and actually "blacked out for a few minutes from the fear." In her suit, the woman claims she was so terrified, she defecated on herself.

Popular Post Sperm Edwards Posted March 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 18, 2021 5 hours ago, Doggin94it said: Not how this happened. The second through sixth women called because Buzbee put out that Instagram post letting potential plaintiffs know this was happening - it was the equivalent of the "do YOU have mesothelioma?" commercials, and PARTICULARLY for these types of complaints, strength in numbers is a real thing. Just look at how differently people are reacting from when there was only one plaintiff to now that there are multiple women making similar accusations. So the fact is that the first plaintiff was coming forward could reasonably and legitimately have spurred other women to come forward. They definitely were not holding six complaints back for a year. And you can see that in the evolution of his public statements - from "i have a plaintiff" to "there will be four lawsuits" to "there will be 6". At the very least, we know for certain that he got two new plaintiff between the time he put out the second statement and the time he put out the third. I don't know why you would think it's impossible that plaintiffs two through four also reached out after his initial post. In fact, the timing of the release of these complaints, and the cookie-cutter nature of them, strongly suggests it. If you had all of these complaints in hand, there is absolutely no reason you wouldn't file them all at the same time to maximize the impact. Does that mean Watson definitely did the things he's accused of? No. No it does not. But you guys gotta stop setting up your murder boards and dragging thread from thumbtack to thumbtack based on these conspiracy theory imaginings about how you think a civil case should be handled That's the thing; no one wants to be the first, and open herself up to the avalanche of trash that follows her, her biz, her family, etc. Waiting for the strength of numbers can be a major comfort to someone levying an accusation about an immensely popular sports celebrity. Also possible say plaintiff #5 may have some evidence, it wasn't as strong as the 1st/2nd woman, but the more that come forward the more believable she is because...well there are reasons for expressions like where there's smoke, there's fire. Still further it's possible that the first (for all we know the first 2-3) lawyers she consulted turned down the case. Maybe they didn't know anyone who'd take their case to this level until Counselor Instagram here sent out the big evite. And even then, who says everyone who called him got taken seriously either? Perhaps there are 3x this many who have absolutely nothing beyond their words against his, which isn't enough for more than a shakedown to keep it quiet. Cat's already out of the bag there, so Buzbee's likely weeded those out lest it harm the credibility of his other clients. Even a text message as evidence can mean something less than what's alleged. We still don't really know enough to form a concrete judgment beyond our own suspicions one way or the other. But it's looking worse & worse with each plaintiff. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look, I get it ... you immediately believe the woman in this case... If this was brought out differently... Presented like other sexual harassment cases I would tend to believe it. The truth is that a predatorial lawyer came out on instagram to present a civil case that he asked for 100k. If that doesn't seem fishy then I don't know what to tell you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GQMartin Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 The most recent accuser wasn't a massage therapist at a rub 'n tug. Has anyone read the most recent complaint filed? Haven't had time to do that myself but from what I heard on the radio, Watson coerced a chiropractor (young, just married female) to perform oral sex on him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coffee Is Great Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Quite the situation. - This many cases is hard, though not impossible, to make up. You cannot ignore the timing of this though. - This doesn't benefit HOU since it'll likely kill any interest teams have in trading for him. Unless HOU's ownership is so petty that they're willing to burn it all down to ruin Watson's career. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freestater Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 2 hours ago, Skeptable said: If this was true you wouldn't go first to a scumbag lawyer and have him privately demand 100k to make it go away first. You would file a police report and criminal charges against the person to make them pay because money can always happen in a civil trial later. Also your lawyer wouldn't announce it on Instagram begging for more people to join in a lawsuit to potential get more money. This whole scenario stinks on every level and doesn't pass common sense in anyway. This looks like either a huge money grab or somebody trying to make a football player (that doesn't want to play for your favorite team anymore) pay financially or through the court of public opinion. If Criminal charges are brought up and they file police reports or new information comes out to prove his guilt, I will change my tune... At the moment this looks like a whole set up. I'm no lawyer, but if my attorney ever came to me with advice this horrible, I'd have him beaten to death. Then I'd fire him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
