How did he sexually assault 24 women, but 2 separate Grand Jury's, in different counties didn't indict him?
That is what really makes me pause.
I don't think it is beyond belief that Watson enjoyed the services of women who do that sort of thing for cash and now are cashing in.
I am not playing blame the victim here, I am just observing that in a couple separate occasions a group of citizens decided there was not compelling enough evidence to take him to trial...or there was evidence that discredited their claims.
...which leaves Watson pretty screwed.
He is in a fucked up situation where he has to tacitly admit to habitually using prostitutes or find some other way to explain what went down.
Either way, he is screwed.
They are probably all gunning for arbitration and sealed settlements.
