In the case of Kevin Spacey, I think most the accusations were legitimate. He has a notorious reputation. He‘s probably a pervert. My sister had a friend who worked at a hotel, and he claimed that Kevin Spacey hit on him.
Yet there aren't any convictions and a civil suit against him was dropped with prejudice. I think people are innocent until proven guilty and over the past years, when Mia Farrow again resurrected her never ending grudge against Woody Allen and they started with the sex abuse allegations (Dylan), then Ronan chimed in and Me Too got started ,there has been a lot of lying. A lot.
Hitting on someone and sexually assaulting them are 2 different things.
I work in the legal field, I see victims, I work with them and work on child abuse cases and things like that and I think the false allegations are incredibly damaging to real victims.
I realize this is a very polarizing topic and I too was frustrated and upset with some of the things Morrissey said, until I really thought about them and thought about the truth in them.
1 false allegation against a man can ruin his life forever. 1 sexual assault can ruin a person's life forever. It's complicated. We want to believe victims and we want people to get their due process.
