I assume that, for whatever reason or reasoning, they're disregarding his purported appetites *and* accepting his innocence of the more sensational charges... He has had his due process. Whatever else he may be, he is *not* innocent .. To hell with the process. "Guilty" is a legal concept, but not necessarily a reality when it comes to ACCURATE judgment. Check around, George. A lot of people have been sent to jail on either trumped-up charges, or are sometimes flatly innocent. It happens. No doubt, some overzealous prosecutor saw a chance to put away a celebrity for a high-profile trial, and took what was probably a private party, with no one complaining, and decided to make a case. Then he'd use the publicity to gain political ascendancy. Like those DAs a few years back who were finding devil worshippers at all the daycare centers and were locking them up as pedophiles. --
