4 set of charges.

1 might look as if he' being set up but 4 complainants are pretty hard to ignore.

Do we know if it's four people making one complaint each or is it one person making four complaints? I've yet to see a story that gives a breakdown of the charges.

3 counts of assault, 1 count of overcoming resistance.

Finally something solid instead of just media piling on. It's going to be an interesting trial, if one of the accusers is the one that had a year long relationship with him for instance. Personally I don't understand that - if you're being assaulted, why stay?

Because people have some fucked up ideas about what love is. The news is full of stories about lots of women, and a few men, who have endured years of physical, emotional and mental abuse before they leave.....or are killed. Police particularly hate domestic violence calls, because the wife who was having the shit kicked out of her by her partner, 5 minutes earlier, turns on the cops when they intervene and arrest her abuser.

I heard a long, drawn out drawma on CBC 1 this morning about a woman who lost her job because her abusive, stalking husband kept coming into her workplace and picking fights with her. Anyway, this abusive relationship went on for years, made it difficult for her to hold onto a subsequent jobs, etc. "... AND THEN MY SECOND CHILD WAS BORN" and I thought KEEEEYRIST! you're a stupid woman and changed the channel.
