How can anyone still not think of a conspiracy after Harvey Weinstein and Mohamed Al-Fayed?
I mean, Italians in talk shows always complain that sort of stuff only happens in Italy, with Berlusconi and bunga-bunga, but it’s widespread in the Western world. Why do I say it’s a conspiracy? Because Al-Fayed was accused of the rapes only after his death. More than 150 victims reported the crime, but it’s already too late. They can only put to trial those who facilitated it. It was covered up by everyone. The police even reported it to CBS but three times they declined to investigate further. If this is not a conspiracy, I don’t know what is.

First, Weinstein is still alive (barely) so part of your so-called conspiracy falls apart.
Second, al-Fayed was a rich guy who could pay to cover things up. Is that a conspiracy, really? Or is that just doing what rich men always do – spend money to avoid being embarrassed. Trump does that as well, as do many other rich people. That doesn’t make it a conspiracy.
So @luigirovatti – you obviously have some point you are trying to make. But not clearly.
What is the conspiracy you are alleging? By who? For what reason? Who else is involved?
Before I can take you seriously, you need to be a little more precise about what you are saying.
I don’t see what Weinstein has to do with Al-Fayed.
Weinstein was found guilty.
@jca2: The process needs to be redone due to a technical error.
@elbanditoroso: Apart from the fact that rich people doing whatever pedophilia they want is illegal, there’s a documentary, Al-Fayed: Predator at Harrods, which featured interviews with the women and explored evidence of the failure by Harrods to properly investigate the claims and the potential “cover-up” of abuse allegations. Also, do you really think they don’t work together, or at the very least know what each of them is doing?
I don’t know how it’s all connected. No one has a conspiracy theory of everything. I don’t have inside information. If you want a conspiracy theory, just look into Pizzagate.
@jca2: I mean trial. Sorry.
Both al-Fayed and Weinstein were rich, influential people. Both had the resources to basically do whatever they wanted to do and to get away with it. Weinstein got caught (finally) thanks to Ronin Farrow who wouldn’t let the story drop. He had lots of evidence and yet Weinstein had the influence. Most outlets wouldn’t touch the story for fear of offending Weinstein. He was buddy-buddy with to many execs. Most of his victims were afraid their careers would be over if they spoke out.
If there is a true conspiracy there, it was with the complicit media that let him get away with his behavior and even killing stories about it if/when they surfaced. As with all things these days, if the media were actually independent and non-biased, these rich assholes wouldn’t be allowed to get away with the crap they do.
A couple of random (even if similar) facts do not make a conspiracy.
The power of money creates its own conspiracies and if you add political power to the mix you get Trump.
@luigirovatti You’re saying they need to re-try him so that maybe he won’t be found guilty? If he wants another trial, his attorneys can appeal it his convictions- that’s how it works.
@jca2: Their attorneys won’t have the blame, all on the prosecutor. A conspiracy in full swing. The appeal can fail, this way Weinstein won’t be convicted, his health is declining rapidly, it could take years to build a new case.
@luigirovatti. I know you are in Italy
Weinstein would not “go free” while the appeal happens, he stays in jail.
He has been convicted . . . this is US law.
@Tropical_Willie: The appeal ended on april 25, overturning his sentence. He may stay in jail, but all he cares about is not getting convicted.
By the way, Sean Combs was arrested days ago for sexual abuse and trafficking.
