Somehow I get the feeling he won't be playing Broly again.

Texas: bans Vic from dubbing the first chance they get and brag about it on Twitter
L.A.: allows Vic to finish dubbing for JoJo with only Kira's VA complaining about it Really though, this whole thing is like the best kind of trainwreck: terrible for everyone involved, but exciting to witness. |

Proving defamation used to be hard before everyone started posting it on the internet for everyone to see. |

That photo wasn't an example of an accuser. It was an example of repeated behavior. And when the person said that they weren't happy with it getting used, it got removed. Which was the correct thing to do. |

If only he had handled himself like a professional for the last 20 years, he wouldn't be in this mess. |

You realize that explanation isn't any better, right? Adding an out of context commentary to a photo and passing it off as "journalism". That basically takes ANN's entire article into question if that's the logic they used for their hit piece. |

Which, again, they removed when addressed with it, which was the right thing to do. (Removed overquoting. --Crisha) |

If I had a nickle for every time this point had to be reiterated... Also side note this leads to another point I should make: let's not get side-tracked into a "Vic should ALSO sue so and so" discussion. If Vic sues additional people or companies, it will be reported on, and can be discussed then. EDIT: Also, the discussion regarding ANN's initial use of that one photo is off topic. Vic isn't (at least yet) suing ANN, it has nothing to do with the allegations the people he IS suing made, and didn't involve Funimation. We don't need to continue discussing this point for the 100th time. Let's drop it. |

As a reminder, I'm currently basing all my info right now on the publicly released lawsuit claim paper. That aside, I'm might depart from that. I'm also here to remind everyone that I have all of the pages of these archived. While I will stay as civil as I can, I don't really trust the mods to keep the forums pristine right now. I apologize in advance. I do know that there were two investigations, according to info on both sides of the party, but according to the timeline in the account they only presented three incidents. If there were a different set of accounts in the 2019 investigation, why wasn't Vic presented those by the Sony HR executive? That would imply that the 2019 investigation was extremely one-sided and do not reflect the public's common perception of an investigation. The second option is Vic lied about the details with Sony HR executive. That would be a oneway ticket to perjury particularly because he stated this info in the lawsuit. It's possible but highly unlikely due to all the sunken costs, but if it is, it should be easy to defend.and put Vic in jail. (Removed overquoting. --Crisha) |

my personal opinion on this whole shit storm is this, if he's innocent he's innocent if he's guilty he's guilty when either one or the other is proven Then and ONLY then should shit hit the fan. It's honestly disgusting how we as a society have gotten to the point where public opinion is the only truth that should be believed instead of actual proof or facts. One last note I do not know what is more amusing seeing that people are trying to rationalize their opinion of Vic being a scum ball or the fact that people are still trying their damnedest to make it sound like Vic doesn't have a legal case and that he should just be burned at the stake

I think that we as the public do not have all of the information. Nor are we owed it. If it comes out in court, it comes out in court. (Removed overquoting. --Crisha) |

The cynic in me just knows that any kind of settlement will be paraded around as proof of Vic's innocence, despite that not being how settlements work.

I'll say it right now, this is the act of an entitled, pathetic little creep who is angered that his abuse of power and assumptions over physical interaction with anyone is finally being challenged. And it's hurting his bank account.
I hope something does come to life, definitively, in court proceedings--that Vic is guilty and his fanatical cultists can then shut up. No one would endure what Rial, Marchi, and the others have for such a moronic reason as "ruining someone's career." Death threats, constant social media attacks, effects to their work, relationships. None of it is "worth" the supposed payoff of tarnishing Poor Vic's name in the eyes of fans and the industries. Last edited by Ashen Phoenix on Fri Apr 19, 2019 8:41 am; edited 1 time in total |

Monica would have to prove that his dad joke is more than an isolated incident. As far as I know, replying to a fan with a shiptease merely that, a quip for a fan. The legal definition of sexual harassment doesn't include a onetime joke, afaik, unless it's that severe. Look, if Monics Rial has the proof, then I'm sure we'll see the proper response. Until then I will wait and ask questions. Ron Toye's claims tho are quite extreme (very likely his tweets were hyperbolic) so that will be quite a lead to follow.[/url]

What an absolute farce. That it cites the debunked "Monica and co. pressured cons into dis-inviting Vic" conspiracy is just...
And people wonder why women don't come forward. It bears repeating the moment you scream "where's the evidence?/innocent before proven guilty!/why did no one file a report?" is an instant admission of not knowing the first thing about sexual assault, let alone law. |
