It is torturous to think that all the drama, heartache and pain has to be endured again. It seems rape victims don’t have much chance for justice in California; no wonder women hesitate to report it.

I am grateful to the guilty votes that held their ground.

I’m in tears. Why? Those poor girls. The Janes. Just thinking of them having to go through this all over again absolutely devastates ME, a past rape victim. I can’t imagine what they are going through.

I’m so disappointed that there were so many jurors who were voting “not guilty.” Ugh. Those poor women who will have to go through this all again in March! The only bright spot? We’ll get to hear Tony again - “Underground Bunkerrrrrrrr.” 😉

Argh Tony! Mistrial....all I can say is to the 3 ladies who so courageously stood UP & shared their very personal & awful things done to you...Justice will still come, some way, some how.

To Danny....you Know. You can dance around with your Scientology "friends"....but you

*Know*. Tick Tock! Karma has many ways of giving payback.

Tony.....I thank you for your dignity, your passion & your humor. 🌹👍⛩️

Thanks for being there! I look forward to seeing you then. Until then, Danny Masterson is now totally unemployable except for in house Scientology infomercials. We will see the fall out from this first trial, regardless of the outcome because has uniformly been described as cold, impulsive, violent, and scary.

Selling his new invention the Masterson Chastity Belt with double-alarm butt plug in case he comes to visit?

It is so rare to find such humility in journalists. You’re the best Tony, and it seems it’s not just the Bunker who knows it! Thank you for your reports, and have a safe trip home!

I have learned a ton from your front row observations, notes, and explanations. Thank you so much. How I wish all news came to us this way. I feel badly for these women but they have waited years; and three months will be here in no time.

These ladies have so much support. Mr. Proprietor, have a good flight back home and before you leave, swing by 4810 Sunset and 5930 Franklin and give those asshats a one finger salute.

Thank you so much Tony for all your hard work. I think this case is a tragedy. I don't understand why the MeToo movement has not managed to support these women. This is the real tragedy. C'mon!! These women deserve the support that they are clearly not getting!!

They should get testimony from the state or national council on Sexual Assault and domestic violence. They will attest to why victims don’t come forward about their rapes. At least the jury could hear that if they can’t talk about Scientology... Or they could call me. I’ll tell them why.

Thank you Tony!

I am still amazed at your skills of dictation. I'm sure it was nice to have it validated by the court reporter. VWD!

I'm gutted for the women. It's really difficult to have faith in the justice system when it comes to these kinds of cases. I hope the civil case picks up where the criminal justice system fails (although it would be f'ing great if there is a better outcome with the retrial).

Thank you for all your hard work, Tony. It's been a rollercoaster and I really appreciate all your effort (not to mention typing!) keeping the Bunker informed. Safe travels back to NY.
