The mob actually was the first funders of pornography. They should have kept doing that. Every single one of the five families would. Waking in 10s of billions.
Funny how so many of the vices actually worked better under the mafia's control -- booze, pornography, gambling ... shit dude, ask pretty much any Vegas local and they'll tell you Vegas was a much cleaner, nicer experience for locals and tourists when the mob was in charge. Things were cheaper (even including inflation), people didn't get nickle-and-dimed to death, the casinos made fucktons of money anyway, there were no niggers and minimal crime, things were cleaner, and they made sure to take care of the tourists instead of burning them at every opportunity.

Then wily (greedy) career-chasing politicians and prosecutors swept in, chased out the mafia, brought in the corporations, secured their cut, and walked away. Now Vegas sucks and the cash flow is drying up anyway.

Face it, the Italians are just better at the grift than pretty much anybody.
 
Its funny because the mob never went away, it was replaced by the jewish mafia. Thats the literal plot of The Godfather, Moe Green and Hyman Roth were both jewish mobsters.
 
Is there a consensus on what destroys porn whores worse, blacks or tattoos? Even worse they usually always end with both, and both taint you forever (so I guess it's a philosophical issue which is worse if it's broken your body or your soul?)

Julia Bond always makes me sad. How you go from

To....whatever this is

Wasn't subtle either, went from the small pawprints on the tits, to weird bellybutton circle, to wings on the back (she still at least look hot)....to gigantic illuminati pyramid across her entire stomach (?) and then all this other shit everywhere. Ew nigga
Self hatred. They feel ugly on the inside so they mess themselves up on the outside to match. (Like someone above said, it's a replacement for cutting.)

Blacks come close though. There's a reason hoes who burn coal get BBLs but won't get breast implants. Take that, Daddy!
 
Olive oil stained fingers typed the above post.
But it's true... Vegas went downhill only after Ayn Ryan's acolytes began managing it. The dilletante who never managed a succesfull business in her whole life despite writing a whole philosophy about how business should be done.

The Jewish mafia has been around for around a century at this point.

  • John Dunsworth (Mr. Lahey): dropped dead of blood clots out of nowhere
  • Cory Bowles (Cory): M U T T
  • Michael Jackson (Trevor): quit after producers refused to give him a raise (from minimum wage lol) and hasn't worked in film since
  • Bernard Robichaud (Cyrus): hasn't had a film/TV gig since 2014
  • Richard Collins (Phil Collins): died of a heart attack on set (okay that was kind of his fault)
  • Ellen Paige (Treena): trooned out
  • Now Jeanna Harrison is doing porn.

You forgot about Ricky’s bitch Lucy (DeCoutere). The actress:

* had rough sex with Canadian rock star/Charlie Rose wannabe Jian Ghomeshi
* years later teamed up with a couple other women who fucked him
* went public with false sexual assault allegations
* Ghomeshi was prosecuted, and the judge found him not guilty of four counts of sexual assault and one count of choking
* during the trial, DeCoutere was confronted with a photo of her and Jian cuddling in the park the day after the alleged “assault”, and was forced to admit she sent him flowers and a handwritten letter that said “I love your hands”. She later wanted to fuck him again so badly that she bombarded him with emails claiming he’s “magic”


The defense lawyer for a former Canadian Broadcast Corp radio host charged with sexual assault has argued in closing arguments that the complainants withheld information from police and lied under oath.

Lawyer Marie Henein said on Thursday that Jian Ghomeshi should thus be acquitted. Ghomeshi pleaded not guilty to four counts of sexual assault and one count of choking based on alleged incidents involving three women. He is the former host of Q, a popular radio show on culture heard in Canada and on many US public stations.

Police launched an investigation in 2014 after more than 12 women contacted various media sources to allege that Ghomeshi had assaulted them. The allegations rocked Canada’s public broadcaster and sparked a nationwide conversation about consent and sexual harassment.

All three women complainants in the case made late, damaging revelations after the trial started.

The third witness in the case, whose name is protected by a publication ban, acknowledged that she deliberately misled police when she didn’t tell them that she had engaged in some sexual activity with him after the alleged assault took place.

The woman testified that she had trouble breathing after Ghomeshi put his hands around her neck as they were making out in a Toronto park. Later she met him again, invited him back to her home and engaged in sexual activity but she didn’t tell police or the prosecutor about the invitation or the sexual activity until last week.

The first two complainants made revelations after Ghomeshi’s lawyer produced damaging email evidence about their interactions with Ghomeshi after the alleged assaults.

Television actress Lucy DeCoutere, the second woman to testify, acknowledged Friday that she told Ghomeshi that she wanted to have sex with him a day after he allegedly choked and slapped her. She did so after Ghomeshi’s lawyer produced pleading emails that showed she wanted a relationship with him and that he was “magic”.

DeCoutere, a star of the TV and film series Trailer Park Boys, also acknowledged she sent Ghomeshi flowers days after the alleged assault. And in a handwritten love letter days later she wrote: “I love your hands.” DeCoutere, who waived her right to have her name not published, had testified that she didn’t remember the emails.

The first woman to testify acknowledged that she emailed Ghomeshi a bikini-clad picture of herself a year after he allegedly sexually assaulted her, pulling her hair and punching her in the head. She claimed on the witness stand to have forgotten about the email and another flirtatious email she sent a year after.

“There is not an expert who will testify that perjury is indicative of trauma,” Henein said. “What a witness cannot do is lie about their conduct and then say ‘Oh geez, that’s just how victims of trauma behave’.”

Prosecutor Michael Callaghan said their credibility has nothing to do with the way they behaved after the alleged assaults. He argued they were resolute in what happened.

Justice William Horkins said he will deliver his verdict on 24 March.

Ghomeshi, who first gained fame as a member of the 1990s satirical pop band Moxy Fruvous, previously defended himself in a 1,500-word statement on Facebook, saying women consented to having “rough sex” with him and that he was the victim of a disgruntled ex-girlfriend. The CBC fired him.

Ghomeshi faces another sex assault trial based on allegations from a fourth complainant in June.


The case against Jian Ghomeshi didn’t really begin to crack until the emails turned up.

On the opening day of the trial in Toronto, the former radio presenter’s lawyer, Marie Henein, peppered the first of three complainants with questions. How long did the police interview last? Did she realize that she was wrong about the color of the defendant’s car?

The questions showed some holes in the witness’s memory as she recalled events from more than a decade ago. But it was not the ruthless cross-examinations for which the steely defense lawyer has become notorious.

That came on day two. The witness had testified that Ghomeshi yanked her hair and punched her three times in the side of the head – a traumatizing event that caused her new pain whenever she heard Ghomeshi’s voice.

With a cool demeanor, Henein displayed blown-up copies of emails the woman sent Ghomeshi after the alleged assault. “Good to see you again!” read the first email. “Your show is still great.” Another email contained a photo of the woman in a bathing suit.

“Your truth keeps changing,” Henein said.

On Thursday, to the roars of protesters outside the Old City Hall courthouse, Judge William Horkins agreed. In a scorching 25-page verdict, Horkins acquitted the former CBC host of four counts of sexual assault and one count related to an accusation of choking.

It was not an outcome many could have predicted even a few months ago. And it might not have happened without Henein, whom one former client described as “my shark”.

The accusations against Ghomeshi first emerged in fall 2014, shocking the country as eventually more than 20 women and one man came forward to say he had slapped, punched, bit, choked, groped or smothered them. But in the courtroom at Old City Hall, any certainties about the case quickly dissipated.

Henein’s trial strategy relied on the witnesses’ failure to divulge all the details of their relationships with Ghomeshi to police from the start, and on scrutinizing small inconsistencies in their stories.

It was not unusual for Henein to dwell for a half an hour on a single detail that had shifted as women spoke to police, the media and at trial: did Ghomeshi choke you with one hand or two? Did he yank you by your hair extensions, or were you not wearing hair extensions at all?

Whether those lapses occurred on purpose or due to the normal failures of memory, they permitted Henein to paint the women as unreliable on the specifics. The verdict revealed that those inconsistencies combined to poison the women’s central accusations.

Delivering his judgment on Thursday, Horkins said the witnesses’ accusations were “tainted by outright deception”.

Henein never put Ghomeshi on the stand, and she never, through her questioning, presented an alternative explanation for the events described by his accusers. (Before the trial, Ghomeshi claimed publicly that the encounters, while rough, were consensual.)

To many, the effect was that the trial of Jian Ghomeshi became a test of his accusers.

But her strategy was a risky one, said Luc LeClair, a Toronto lawyer who has defended several high-profile criminal suspects. Without Ghomeshi’s explanation to offer, Henein’s hands were tied when it came to confronting the women’s core testimony.

“She must have decided that he simply couldn’t testify,” LeClair said. “And with that decision, she had no other version of events to put forward. How are you going to confront the witness about their central narrative?”

“She doesn’t directly say whether it happened or it didn’t happen, because she can’t,” he continued. “So what she did, in a very masterful and forceful way, was attack everything around it, and hope there’s not enough left the judge sees as credible.”

Henein’s defense was also aided by flubs on the part the prosecution. The Crown’s witnesses were firm in their testimony and appeared ready for Henein’s notoriously aggressive mode of cross-examination. But when Henein began to lay out emails, letters, and photo evidence that she said contradicted their testimony, the women and Crown prosecutors seemed equally thrown.

She startled the first witness with an email the woman sent to Ghomeshi containing a photo of her in a bikini. The email, sent months after Ghomeshi allegedly punched her and yanked her hair, appeared to contradict the woman’s testimony that after Ghomeshi assaulted her, she was too traumatized to even hear his voice.

The second witness to testify was Lucy DeCouture, an actor who claimed Ghomeshi choked and slapped her. Henein confronted DeCoutere – who waived the publication ban on naming witnesses – with a photo showing the two of them “cuddling” in a park the day after the alleged assault. In a moment of high drama, Henein asked DeCoutere to read a handwritten letter she wrote to Ghomeshi following their encounter. The letter read: “I love your hands.”

Henein treated each new submission like a bombshell, sometimes ending a day of testimony on a cliffhanger. “Do you want to take a moment and tell the truth of the real conversation that was going on?” she asked DeCoutere on her first day of testimony. “Not the one you’ve been reporting to the media, not the one in the press releases.”

DeCoutere gave a puzzled response, and Henein asked for court to be adjourned for the day.

Pressed to explain their lapses, the witnesses replied that they had forgotten the letters, the flowers, the emails. As the trial wore on, two of the women gave prosecutors new information. DeCoutere told the Crown that she sent Ghomeshi flowers after the alleged attack. A third witness, who claimed that Ghomeshi squeezed her throat, told prosecutors that after the attack, she had a consensual sexual encounter with Ghomeshi at her house. During her testimony, she acknowledged that Henein’s discovery of the other witnesses’ emails had compelled her to check her own account.

Finally, Henein used communications between DeCoutere and a friend to suggest a vendetta against Ghomeshi. On Thursday, Horkins said the 5,000 messages between the two showed an “extreme dedication to bringing down Ghomeshi”.

The admissions raised questions about the depth of the prosecutors’ preparation. The crown is prohibited from coaching the witness to the point of ironclad testimony, but it still has some ability to prepare them for tough questions about the evidence.

Observers wondered why Callaghan’s team or the women’s attorneys did not comb over the witnesses’ communication with Ghomeshi with the same ferocity as Henein. The best explanation may be that anything the Crown finds, it must disclose to the defense. In DeCoutere’s case, she told police she could not find old communications because she no longer had access to that email account.

Victims’ advocates scrutinized the proceedings as a key test of a judicial system they see as stacked against women reporting abuse and sexual violence. Numerous appellate court decisions have limited judges’ ability to intervene in particularly brutal cross-examinations. And the defense bar, some legal experts argue, has a history in assault trials of trying to imply women’s sexual histories.

Critics of Henein’s style have not been able to point to anything she said as unethical. They have voiced concerns, however, that the way her cross-examination unfolded could deter victims of sexual violence from coming forward in the future.

High-profile losses for prosecutors can contribute to broad factors that discourage people experiencing sexual assault from working with law enforcement, said Verona Singer, the head of victim services for the Halifax regional police. Without commenting on the details of what took place at trial, she said: “I think there are many victims who will look at this outcome and say, ‘This is what we expected. The criminal justice system is not a good place for victims to go.’”

But the attorney for DeCoutere, Gillian Hnatiw, said it was unfair to lay much blame at Henein’s feet.

“The witnesses were treated, quite frankly, in keeping with how the Canadian criminal justice system permits them to be treated,” Hnatiw said. Henein’s duty was to take fullest advantage of that permissiveness. “It’s a system set up to determine criminal responsibility beyond a reasonable doubt. It advantages the accused in every way, as it is constitutionally required to do.”

Hnatiw acknowledged that it was frustrating to see Henein create reasonable doubt over behavior that is normal for abuse victims, such as continuing to have a relationship with their assailant or waiting a long period of time to make a report. But Henein wouldn’t have been able to portray those behaviors as suspicious if the society around her didn’t embrace those same biases, Hnatiw said.

“Reasonable doubt is based on the perspective of whoever is the finder of fact,” Hnatiw said. “They’re always bringing their own personal experiences and biases and perspectives to the ‘reasonable’ standard. And that’s where I think we have to work hard to educate people and push them to align what they think is reasonable.”
