I’m waiting for more evidence on both sides, personally. I have theories but they’re subject to incoming information.

I suspect dodginess on both sides but not to the degree of the accusation but I’m willing to be wrong.

I don’t feel picked on Scott F. I agree with you. I just didn’t express myself as well as you did.

I agree with all of you. I meant to make clear that I know that I shouldn’t default to that belief. I’ve learned something.

Ain’t it a little funky that Lowe states Jessica brought men back to the house and was under the influence while working there? When exactly did he find this out? Notice “men” plural. And did he fire her when he found out? If he didn’t, he’s definitely got some credibility problems too.

HA!! People magazine is doing a poll about this story online. Three options are presented. Do you believe Rob Lowe, the nanny or do both have credibility issues?

As of right now, 69% believe Lowe, 24% think they both have issues but only 7% actually believe the nanny.

It’s really sad that a situation twenty years ago in which Lowe’s only folly was engaging in a non-standard sexual encounter should color people’s perception of him so strongly.

What’s promising though is that people aren’t willing to look past some shady behavior, statements and nasty smirking on national tv because of that past folly either.

CB, thanks for adding that, I totally left out child abuse/neglect, which bothers me a lot being a parent. It just sucks because either way you feel like someone is getting the shaft, either the suspect or the victim.

I think we need to remember that old adage we framed our legal system around though; “It’s better to let 100 guilty men go free, than to send a single innocent man to prison.”

I would just like to say that the same thing happens when anyone accuses someone of child abuse or neglect – they’re guilty until proven innocent. People really want to protect women and children, and will automatically assume something is true if there’s an accusation about sexual abuse/harassment or anything that might endanger a child. It’s to the point where people can make really outrageous unsubstantiated claims and ruin someone’s life. Of course the victim and the accusations should be taken seriously, but they should also be carefully investigated by authorities, not taken just as truth without a thorough investigation, and not tried in the f’ing media.
