  Do you suppose anyone ever committed suicide after wrongly being adjudged an abuser?

    So you think it's possible this guy married three different women who all said he abused them, and at least one of them also tricked a judge into agreeing? Which scenario do you think is more likely: A) A man whose entire career and public persona was dedicated to being an asshole happened to be an actual asshole B) At least three women loved this guy enough to marry him and then decided to make up stories about how he abused them, convincingly enough that a court of law agreed Keep in mind that in both scenarios, we know that he did spend all of his most recent wife's money and had a substance abuse problem.

      I just don't care to wade in gossip about a guy I don't have any direct information about who died. Don't you find it ghoulish? You ever done anything wrong? Would it be appropriate for strangers to take something they heard about you and use it to write you off as an asshole and summarize your life before your body had cooled off? I thought everyone understood that it was very bad to do this.

  In case anyone is surprised to read this, it isn’t speculation. It’s deep in the thread but it’s indisputably there from someone who would know. The circumstances surrounding this incident in the last 24 hours sound absolutely fucking abhorrent. I’m honestly shocked reading the firsthand accounts in that thread. Just wow.
