Can't these guys be in jail already? Tired of hearing about them for years.

[–] catloaf@lemm.ee 8 points 1 week ago

They were, and then Trump got them out.

Justice moves slowly. But having charges in the UK gives me a stronger sense that it will be delivered. Not knocking Romania, I just don't know how effective the legal system is there and I have more knowledge of the UK as an english-speaking person.

And if your rich, like these rapists, it moves like a sloth on codeine.

Yeah wouldn't bet on the justice system there

After they've done their official testimonies they both died?

Well, get on with it, then!

Rapist... that's the word you're looking for. Not influencer.

I guess they don't want to say that before the trial but I'd have gone with "incel influencers"

You get to call both them and their audience incels with one phrase!

Weren't these guys held in Romania? In how many countries are they being charged??

[–] Mirshe@lemmy.world 17 points 1 week ago

Tate all but said on Twitter that he moved to Romania specifically to avoid rape charges in the UK (specifically, he said he moved there because they "don't investigate" sexual crimes). Several women have since come forth in the UK about his sexual assaults and battery of them.

They let them leave the country, and they would definitely prefer a British prison

WHY? Because they're CONSERVATIVES? Get these Men a Presidential Pardon STAT! WE DONT WANT IMMIGRANTS IN THE USA (UNLESS they're wanted for RAPE and HUMAN SEX TRAFFICKING!)!

Funnily enough, they got kicked out of Florida
