Substack has a donate tab. He prob gets a better % than gofundme.

Well now I can't find the dono tab on the app. It was in top right on the browser version.

Oh man this is so stressful, I can’t even imagine how it is for the Jane Does.

Loving the continued fashion critique of the well dressed Cohen. I'm not holding my breath for a verdict today though :(

I remember when I served on a jury in Louisville about 10 or so years ago. I’m curious as to how the jury was dressed today. We pretty much knew we were going to have a decision the evening before. We all kicked up our attire that day and went to lunch before handing in the verdict.

Wlll at least they all agree to go to lunch. That's a start

I didn’t realize Tony didn’t live in LA. When he said he would have to change his flight again to go home, I realized he doesn’t. I am game for a go fund me and will contribute. Great idea !!

The only thing I love about this jury taking so long is that Danny Masterson has to be very uncomfortable !

Worried The longer this goes on the more likely masterson will probably get away with it

When they took their first break after only an hour and twenty minutes, I felt strongly they had a verdict. Now they come back and ask to break for lunch. What does everyone think? Do they have a verdict ?

I think you’re right. I think Cohen managed to get a few traditionalist holdouts on that jury and it’s going to be hung. That’s what worries me. It would be hell for the Janes to go through this again and they may not want to do it and say Nevermind. That would tickle Scientology to no end.

Not that I know anything about the process but I too think there are holdouts. Hopefully only about one of the Jane Does. Just based off dumb intuition I’d guess he’ll be found guilty of one or two counts and in sentencing get a slap on the wrist. I hope I’m wrong. And I hope also that Hollywood never again gives him the time of day.

If he’s found guilty of 2 off to prison he goes for 45 to life

I hope so too, but I’m afraid he won’t. I think they are arguing about collusion of the Janes, when really, they should be talking about obstruction of justice charges against ‘The Church Of Scientology’ for one charge... Then there’s the child trafficking. And adult trafficking, if that’s what they call it. These ‘contracts’ they make are impossible to fulfill.

What I wouldn’t give to be a fly on the wall for those Scientology stories from reporters!!!

I’ve thought of doing a calendar of my ‘sartorial Splendors’ illustrations of Cohen’s getups through this trial as a fundraiser for sexual assault. I just don’t know if I can take on such a big project. It’s definitely an opportunity for someone in the LA sexual assault advocates and prevention services.
