Well there are cases where one unnamed source makes an unprovable accusation, and then there are cases with multiple alleged victims over the span of a decade...
don't pretend like it would be impossible for the powers that be to conjure up people to make simultaneous accusations to get someone out of the public arena
So you're willing to believe that "the powers that be" would fake a +10 year string of sexual misconduct allegations against some British B-Tier celeb, but are at the same time incapable of fixing the courts?
Yes? It's orders of magnitude easier to get someone to make false accusations than to fix the court system. Not sure that's a controversial statement.
So do you think these accusations were done in preparation, or someone has a serious grudge against Russell, or are we all being retconned?
Could be anything, yeah. Could be because they want to extract wealth from him, could be because they don't like what he says. Or he could have actually raped someone. You don't know and neither do I
And apparently for 10 years they haven't been able to find any evidence of these claims.
