    That's not his entire defense but character witnesses are used all the time by defense attorneys and they are not really random if they are people that have interacted with him in the same way.

    I will agree that doing this in public is odd but I can see they need to have something considering how Buzzbee is making everything public.

    You should debate law strategy in the George Floyd thread.

    I agree in theory. But the fiipside is that he had weeks of anonymous accusations leveled at him, with new details daily. Even if they knew who the people were, they can't say anything about those accusers/victims without looking like a total *******. So they could either stay silent while Watson's destroyed in the media (they tried that for a few weeks) or do something like this. Was it helpful? Doubtful. Does it hurt him any though? Not really.

    Because if it goes to jury, how things look will dictate the outcome. That’s pretty simple concept honestly.
    Reputation aside, it’s not a good look for his defenders to also not want to work with him. It’s not looking good for him getting away with any of this.

    If it goes to court a lot of people will have forgotten about this PC or never knew it existed.

    It's actually not a simple concept because different jurors will take that PC differently.

    His defender has batted down that DM so what do you think about that.

    Why the hell do keep talking about how it looks and I have repeated over and over again he is not getting away with all of this so what's your point?

    None of what you said refuted any of my points in the post you replied to.

    Why do you keep droning on with the semantics. You are hard core defending some pretty damning allegations and patterns.
    The pattern in itself is evidence and enough to rise as evidence in a criminal setting. Same as the Cosby trial.

    Look, perception, intent. All of that is convoluted at this point. The more it piles up the worse it will be. Easy concept.

    And his defendant came out and said her words were misconstrued. Not that she didn’t say she wouldn’t work with him.

    Yes they evidently did since none of them “divorced” him before like you said. And hell Nike still is contemplating things since they only “suspended” their sponsorship. If things were too far gone, they would have cut ties long ago. Like I said, don’t think it’s a coincidence that moves were made after this particular PC vs the last 2-3 Buzbee has held.

    Yes I think he absolutely does. A big part of his “defense” thus far was Buzbee not releasing any of the accusers information, whether privately to them or publicly. Well now Buzbee has, he for sure has to change tactics, something I’m sure he was prepared for.

    What semantics?

    When have I defended anything?

    Why do you keep trying to paint me a defender of Watson or the allegations, please give an example or STFU.

    Everything is an allegation do this point there is not actual fact pattern and you saying that shows where your bias is.

    The defendant gave a reason why she would not work with him again but you left that out and it had nothing to do with these allegations according to her.

    Why are you so hellbent on believing everything from the Buzzbee camp?

    I am getting really tired of misconstruing my intent in all of this.

    My biggest issue is with Buzzbee tactics and people acting like paying of this women will somehow make all of this go away or could have made it all go away.

    So get bent if you think I am here to defend Watson or the allegations.

    What?

    Where the hell did you get that from, you are just making stuff up now.

    That makes zero sense Hardin defense was Buzzbee not releasing any names.

    Really?

    Why are you so hell bent in believing everything out of the Hardin/Watson camp?

    Why are you so hell bent on discrediting any information that comes out against him?

    Why do you respond to any person in here that thinks this looks bad?

    Why do you argue just to argue?

    It was just confirmed on 610 that these women can be used as pattern witnesses in a criminal case. There’s no bias, I’m repeating what a lawyer just said.

    You are fighting Buzbees tactics, which basically means you don’t believe these women and are defending Watson. The only bias is from you.

    Also, stop getting emotional. Your boy is going to pay in some way.
    Accept it and stop being a b****.

    Oh I get it, and I know it's not the whole strategy, y'all. It's just sad.

    Like... they can't even find an equivalent number of non-alleged-abuse masseuses as alleged-abuse masseuses. :oops:

    How much of that is semantics, though? Like, I get what you're saying, but if he's guilty of solicitation, aren't these girls admitting to prostitution in that sense? What a messy deal....

    If he can’t come out and deny that he did anything with the accusers, what good does it do to have others saying he wasn’t shady?

    I think the defense strategy would have helped if he issued a blanket denial that all these claims are false. The fact that he didn’t do that is what is bothering people right now, and yes the other women coming forward don’t really help without a denial.

    one could argue that by exposing this as the only defense strategy does hurt him vs either being silent (or issuing said denial).

    What are the charges?

    Watson is a creepshow but how much of it is tangible jail time?

    With that in mind I expect him back on field quite soon.

    The girls that agreed to finish him then regret it later, yeah those were acts of prostitution, regretful or not. The girls that declined, but had him expose himself, air hump, or push his dong on to them, those did not prostitute themselves while he did solicit.
