re: #295 SteveMcGaziBolaGate

Aren’t they trying to destroy HIS reputaiton? This stuff works both ways.

Roberts is accusing him of statutory rape, which is a crime. The fact that his reputation would be hurt is a byproduct, not the aim of the lawsuit. He, on the other hand, wishes to destroy Roberts and her lawyers specifically in retaliation for those allegations. He could just file slander and/or libel charges, but in his statement to Reuters it’s clear he’s out for revenge.
