This is distressing. And the split -- that is discouraging. Guess it's (still) okay to rape women, then.

Well, shit. I'm not crazy about those splits, but not surprised #3 is the closest. If Scientology weren't involved this would have been done and dusted so many years ago. The obstruction is so blatant. What a shame all around.

Still victim blaming I see. Ugh!!

The judge excluded so much evidence it is a shame.

I am sick! I cannot believe all the jurors who voted "not guilty"!!! What an injustice, honestly, I believe all these jurors are afraid of the Church of Scientology and that they will be stalked/harassed.

Wow... hard to believe. Wondering how the split went as to male and female votes.

Welp, JD 2 and JD 3 must be a worry for the defense. I can only imagine how Scientology will fair game even more slyly now ... Question for the proprietor: Does the criminal trial have to happen before the civil trial? I haven't heard anything about civil dates but recall some comments from judge about certain things (ex: Lisa Presley) being better left for civil. Wondering ...

Very good point. Maybe Mueller can make that happen for March. I wondered in real time about some of the seemingly "rush" comments/decisions by the judge. She really wanted to keep things moving along, moving along. Ah, hindsight.

No, no, no. I just can’t believe this. Little psycho man will be worse than ever now and feel even more powerful . So disappointing, just don’t understand how anyone could not see this as rape. SMH

It’s like a bad dream.... those poor women have to go through this AGAIN!?! I’m glad I have faith that God will hold DM accountable - if not now, then when he meets his maker. Bastage.

It’s a gut punch. Hopefully the prosecutor will retry him.
