Hence, Coats have a potential legal liability issue. BD appears to have dealt with their PR issue. I hope she gets some legal counsel to draft up the rest of her public statements, she could be opening herself up to a countersuit 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not emotionally healthy to go through weeks of potentially being looked down upon and treated as a monster in the eyes of his peers. He would have to go try to recover and figure out how to proceed from there. It’s also a huge distraction for staff and the rest of the corps if he stays. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcikon2 Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 I am confused with the other 2 people in the room. Did they not hear or see anything? I think there are too many unanswered questions right now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chief Guns Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 3 hours ago, Jeff Ream said: Well careers have been ruined by false accusations because the accusations get tons of publicity and the truth coming out barely gets any attention if at all. Case in point............. Rueben Foster. Foster was a linebacker for the San Francisco 49ers. In 2018 he was kicked off the team for Domestic Violence against his GF. He was arrested and charged with three felonies. NFL career gone and ruined. Few months later, his GF admitted she lied about the abuse taking place, and it was nothing more than an extortion plot. She was mad at Foster for wanting to break up with her, and she just wanted to ruin him and his career, because she knew if she screamed "DV" people would automatically take her side as the victim, and Foster would be thrown to the wolves without mercy. Foster never played another game for the 49ers. And is currently in the USFL trying to work his way back into the NFL. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mello Dude Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 2 hours ago, scheherazadesghost said: The adverse effects of abuse that have been disclosed to me have ended human life in two cases. That is worst case scenario and most other adverse effects don't match up to that. I'm not saying that's not possible in the case of the falsely accused, merely sharing as much as I safely can to help others understand my stance. Y'all are approaching my stance like I should have the perfect answers that will make everyone happy. That's not my job and I never claimed it was. It's also putting an awful lot of responsibility on a survivor. Let me fix that for you, "It's also putting an awful lot of responsibility on a accuser." The burden is ALWAYS on the one that accuses. It has to be that way. You have already judged the people involved as a victim and guilty. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She has nothing but praise for how the Bluecoats handled things and supported her. Ok, so it's been a few months and I suppose there was an investigation? Did this investigation reach any conclusion? Is it ongoing? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mello Dude Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 1 hour ago, Cadet Guardy said: Valid questions. Valid points. All we do know is she wasn't happy with BD allowing him to march and that she took matters into her own hands via social media. This. So we already know this was reported just a couple months ago. I would love a timeline and what has been done or not done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
