It might compromise or hinder current legal proceedings from Law enforcement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would amount to self incrimination, and that's pretty foolish, especially in his situation. Make the DA's job a lot, lot easier in front of any jury.

Can you post info regarding Hopkins admitting any of these accusations? Has YEA done an investigation? In the paper... we admitted to a "consensual" relationship with one of the members. Rule #1 DFTK. That is enough right there for any group to take action. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is enough right there for any group to take action. If it were discovered in 2018 that 35 years ago there was a consensual relationship between a 20-something staff member and a 21 year old corps member, it would not have been headlines. From what I have heard back in the 80’s this was unfortunately not such a rare occurrence. The revelations would have been embarrassing but it would pass as a “youthful indiscretion”. I’m not condoning this, it’s just an observation on what does and does not grab attention and how people react. What made this national news - and rightly so - was the allegations of non-consensual activity (assault) and the fact that the accusations span a 20+ year period. That’s an alleged pattern of abuse that would have been news even in a pre-Harvey Weinstein world. All this - the assault part that made it news - has so far been categorically denied. At the moment it’s he-said/they-said. The investigations will hopefully reveal more - especially if the DA decides to bring charges. But that’s where things stand right now. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
