This doesn't look good for the prosecution now does it?
I've read online a lot of people who actually know him or have met him aren't believing most of what has been levied against him.
Hard to decipher whether he's just playing a role and some of these girls were going along. Or he has a nasty side which takes over and inflicts harm. No doubt that he's extremely manipulative, provocative and brazen though.
Romania is a very corrupt country so there's also the possibility that this is just an attempt to shut him down and grab his wealth.
So, let's do an IQ test, Orry. You're a cop prosecuting a high level case against a multi millionaire "influencer" with access to media and hi price attorneys. What do you do before you lay the charge?...
You actually interview and get statements from all the witnesses, including those you say are victim-witnesses. Right?.... Somewhere all the vics have given statements on video to the police. If not, then you have ample wiretap and computer-file evidence to back up your allegations that these vics were controlled and compelled to work. Because you would be an implausibly incompetent cop if you didn't have this stuff.
So what is happening here?.... I suggest options:
1. The girls are fakes and are not the women the cops claim were victimized and they're there to muddy the waters as to whether Tate actually did what he is claimed to have done. This will allow the Tates to keep making money while the prosecution is going on.
2. They are actual victims who have been paid a
LOT of money to recant their statements. (Or else they've been told that their friends and relatives might get the shit beaten out of them and their little pets disappear if they snitch and cooperate with the prosecution).
Both 1 and 2 are a lot more plausible than a cop who pulls the bust of his career without doing even basic legwork. I mean, what do you think cops do all day!? Eat donuts?!
