That ankle bracelet must be uncomfortable
Going with that Cosby defense strategy, cool.
It always takes me a quick second to remember which of these rapists pricks is still facing trial, which is in jail and which is dead.
No more fucks to give.
“ Harvey Weinstein “hobbled into the downtown courthouse limping and relying, at times, on a cane or the help of an assistant. He was dressed in an ill-fitting light grey suit, his hair was thinning, and he looked pale and enfeebled.”
It’s award season.
Oh he can go fuck off.
That trick never works.
Cosby apparently went blind from keratoconus right as he was about to stand trial. Never mind that keratoconus doesn’t cause total blindness, and is usually as bad as it’s going to get by age 30 or so.
Dollars to donuts that Weinstein is also faking.
Funny, he was feeling great just recently.
Harvey will need this POS to offer the excuse for his supposed 30 day dive from robust party animal to physical wreck:
The image in my mind is the last minute or so in The Usual Suspects, where Verbal Kint stops walking with a limp and turns into Keyser Söze. Weinstein’s cane is probably tossed aside as he leaves court and gets into his limo.
Ah - he’s just hungover.
I guess it shouldn’t be surprising that he understands the tools of drama and is putting them to use.
To be fair, Weinstein’s moral center is enfeebled, only, it’s not on a cane, it’s on an iron lung with a flat-line EEG.
