If it's alleged you were with a prominent politician on a night it's claimed he was engaging in discreditable conduct your name is going to come out. It's really telling of what kind of a person you are that you're troubled by the fact these issues involving the mayor are being reported, rather than the fact that his own entourage claims it happened.Please explain to us how 'these allegations are a matter of public interest'...? The young lady in question has an absolute right to privacy here- and not be subjected to Police or Media scutiny based on 'hear say' and speculation from the ex staff of Mayor Ford reputedly detailing events that occurred months earlier but only just now being brought to the attention of the media. If these allegations by ex Mayor staff genuinely had any merit, then why weren't they brought forward at the time of the alleged incident? This seems to me to be a reasonable enough question to ask. Sincerely, Jon .
According to the documents, Isaac Ransom stated that (she) "may have been an escort or prostitute" (p. 154) and police wrote "Ransom believes that she was a professional escort who knew Mayor Ford well..." (P. 162)Just to play Devil's Advocate... do we know that for sure?
Maybe the staff KNEW she was a prostitute? Maybe they arranged for it?
Regardless... I agree, HER identity (hooker or not) should have been held back... she's not the issue.
All I'm saying is her name should have been redacted unless proof or even reasonable evidence was established. Naming someone as an escort without proving it is damning - worse than partying with His Worship, the buffoon.userz said:If it's alleged you were with a prominent politician on a night it's claimed he was engaging in discreditable conduct your name is going to come out.

Even more so if you happen to be a prostitute...makes things more interesting!If it's alleged you were with a prominent politician on a night it's claimed he was engaging in discreditable conduct your name is going to come out.

Two people made major mistakes in judgment. Ransom for pure speculation and Justice Nordheimer for releasing unsubstantiated speculation into the public domain.According to the documents, Isaac Ransom stated that (she) "may have been an escort or prostitute" (p. 154) and police wrote "Ransom believes that she was a professional escort who knew Mayor Ford well..." (P. 162)
No other information or proof provided. Police found no information to substantiate Ransom's claims. (P. 163)
Again, just poor form by Justice Nordheimer.
So basically you think that Toronto should put up with having a violent, lying, drug-addled mayor because he likes being mayor and you feel sorry for him? There are some really slimy politicians who thank their lucky stars every morning that there are people like you around.This media circus show has to end, they're like a pack of wolves who are out for blood. Give the poor guy a break, at this point he's just being bullied, the herd is ganging up on him and are relentless. It's impossible for him to do his job now, and all this stress, slander, false allegations and character assassination are taking a toll on his health. Does he have to have a heart attack before they leave him alone? Enough is enough already, doesn't anyone have any compassion and feel bad for the poor guy?
Kids are taught that bullying is wrong, yet the majority of people in this city have no qualms about bullying Rob Ford to death.
I'd like to see Mayor Rob Ford and his family take a few days off and go somewhere nice, like Florida, so he and his family can relax and enjoy a cool drink by the ocean and relax, although I suspect more drama is likely to come. I admire Mayor Ford and his strong and resolute character. Here's a fellow who is not easily embarrassed by circumstances( didn't he say that he had 'no problem' with the whole world seeing that little video clip of him shouting and gesturing)nor is Mayor Ford esily deterred by adverse conditions. Indeed, Mayor Ford has shown a strong will as a fellow who is just not going to be intimidated by his adversaries or the media. And Yes, in my view, children are being sent a very unhealthy and conflicted message about bullying. Also good to see Mayor Ford stand up like a valiant knight and defend the honour of a innocent fair maiden and friend caught up in the maggot like media reporting of rumors and hear say. However all this drama plays out, I hope Mayor Rob Ford prevails. Sincerely, Jon .' a toll on his health'.

'If it's alleged...' Your first words- which begs the question: why would I or my character be questioned and my life and identity revealed to the media if I had done nothing wrong while in the company of someone who may have?

It's the result of the pathology of the addiction, coupled with an intense entitlement attitude due to a lifetime of being fed with a silver spoon and getting what they want, when they want it.I am am truly fascinated by this. I've known several people in my life who have borne similar convictions in the absolute rightness of their ways. The whole world may be against them, but they pay scant attention. Everyone else is looney, dumb or simply corrupt. They alone are right, and righteous.
Im not sure what to make of these situations yet. A part of me respects their conviction. Another part of me feels sorry for the apparent delusion.
You answered your own question.'If it's alleged...' Your first words- which begs the question: why would I or my character be questioned and my life and identity revealed to the media if I had done nothing wrong while in the company of someone who may have? Sincerely, Jon .

I agree, he needs to go to a beach with his family for 2-3 weeks and not read the paper, watch tv, or go online, he needs a break from all of this. I know that Rob Ford is standing up for himself, but his bullies won't be content until he has a fatal heart attack, eventually his strong and resolute character will crack under the pressure.I'd like to see Mayor Rob Ford and his family take a few days off and go somewhere nice, like Florida, so he and his family can relax and enjoy a cool drink by the ocean and relax, although I suspect more drama is likely to come.

"strong and resolute"? You spelled "stupid and pig-headed" wrong.I agree, he needs to go to a beach with his family for 2-3 weeks and not read the paper, watch tv, or go online, he needs a break from all of this. I know that Rob Ford is standing up for himself, but his bullies won't be content until he has a fatal heart attack, eventually his strong and resolute character will crack under the pressure.
What a load of crap. He is not strong nor resolute, he is a weak, addicted man who is in denial about his problems and refusing to take personal responsibility for what he has done.I agree, he needs to go to a beach with his family for 2-3 weeks and not read the paper, watch tv, or go online, he needs a break from all of this.

If the fucking asshole had enough decency to resign, I would agree that bullying him from that point on would be wrongThis media circus show has to end, they're like a pack of wolves who are out for blood.

Are you fucking kidding me?The Star is once again reporting accurately on Ford's lying. You tried the bullshit "I don't believe the news" line before and it blew up in face. Learn your lesson, there are still bits of egg on your face from last time!
Ford lies about everything. He lied about his drug use. He lied about his drunk driving. He lied about working hard. He is now lying about the fiscal situation of the city.
But that is Canadian politics.What a load of crap. He is not strong nor resolute, he is a weak, addicted man who is in denial about his problems and refusing to take personal responsibility for what he has done.
