Even in the times of #MeToo, it takes a Netflix documentary and public outrage to get famous people prosecuted.

I think sexual predation, especially of a minor, is always shocking. Being a cocky asshole and total shit doesn’t make one a sex criminal. This is completely shocking. And I agree it’s unlikely that he goes to jail. I suppose I should have said that he absolutely *should* go to jail.

Awful - Yes
Shocking - No

The guy has always been a super talented asshat.

Yes, this is awful. But highly unlikely he goes to prison.

I am sure this behavior has been rampant in the music business forever. Good for these women to speak out about it. Hopefully it changes the culture.

Everybody from Phoebe Bridgers to Courtney Jaye to his ex-fiancée and his ex-wife. And a 15-year-old whom he sexted...

Awful and shocking.
