News *** Conor McGregor Found Civilly Liable for 2018 Sexual Assault MEGA THREAD ***

I'm certainly not defending Conor. Fuck him.

But some of you probably need to consider to which degree you're actually having a great time by Conor being found guilty of rape.

It kinda feels like you're having a great time by Conor raping someone, only so that you can go say "YES, told you so! Conor is a despicaple human being!".

I am having a great time because he is finally reaping what he has sown

That's a weird way to interpret bog-standard schadenfreude

 

[Tweak896]

Conor has had numerous allegations, I don't get why being found guilty changes anything. They knew who he was and still chose him.

It's a different way. I wouldn't call it weird as such.

What a weird thing to say.
Nobody is happy Conor raped some one...
People are happy, its finally is catching up to him. He is finally starting to see the consequences of his actions.

Hopefully more companies and brands will drop him. Its not a good look to be associated with him anymore.

 

[BangBang]

Would be good if media just shunned him. For a man who no doubt craves attention and affirmation, he would maybe experience some regret. Probably not though,maybe just "drown" himself in hookers and cocaine.

He claimed he had sex with Hand, you know that right?
He put him self in that position.
Did he during the trial still claim to have had sex with her?
Could he prove they had sex?
Did the jury believe him?
No

Also as she said, she has no recollection of them having sex, which means IF they had sex she was not in a state to give consent.
Which would make it... rape or sexual assault.

He was there because of things he had claimed which he could not prove.

Maybe he should not have lied, then he would not be in this situation.

The jury didn't say he lied and he didn't have sex with ms hand. They just found him not guilty.
He said they had sex twice by the way.
She also ordered food and went up to a hotel room with him for a couple of hours. just her and him after she is seen kissing, hugging and biting his ear on cctv.
James also used condoms when he had sex with the other girl. According to the other girl and the security guard he sent to buy condoms for him in the shop that morning.
Im sure the condoms were bought with a card etc very easy to track. Also cctv in shop. Was never disputed by ms hands legal team for good reason.
James gave a statement to the gardai for the original criminal case that they had consensual sex twice. Would he do 20 years in prison to protect conor?
Ms Hand including james in the civil suit comes of as vindictive. Two lies don't make the truth. It also hurts her principal of just seeking justice.
Even if James is lying. Accusing someone of rape because they are lying to protect someone isn't justice.

It hasn't been a good look for TIME! Companies are merely forced to take a moral high ground now that his misdemeanors have been made official. Anyway better late than never. No one should be above the law. If there was any karma in this world, he would face criminal charges, the cnut.

The downward spiral is accelerating

Nobody is happy that Conor raped someone. And I didn't say that.

I simply pondered the question as how happy you would wanna be or seem by Conor being found guilty in rape.

 

[Mickf]

My original statement stands true.
Including James Lawrence in the sexual assault civil case. Hurt her case against Conor and it might well end up costing her money.
I don't know if it was her decision or on her solicitors advice. But I don't think it helped her.

Again why was she accusing him of rape?
Also IF you lie to protect someone, you kinda have it coming.
So he should sue her because he possible lied?
Again if you have sex with some one that is so drunk/ high they cant consent its sexual assault. Which this could have been.


I am sure Conors friend would lie to protect him. Just look at his fans.
His friends are probably the same.

She basically had to. He said he slept with her. Her position was "I don't remember that but if he says he did then it's rape".

People would be happy if he is found guilty of crimes / sexual assault he committed.

Its great for the victim(s) if they finally gets justice.

 

[Wilmer Digreux]

If he did do that then good, f him.

I haven't been following the case though.

 

[TheWobbler]

Hopefully everyone else drops him as well.

 

[WhiteMousse]

I wonder how UFC and BKFC will handle this...

The bigger question is what will the King do?

My take is it wouldn't surprise me at all if he was actually guilty. And if he is he should go to prison, not fork out what amounts to an electric bill for him.

But it can't be completely ignored that there wasn't enough evidence to prosecute him criminally. As others have already mentioned Civil cases have drastically lower burden of proof thresholds, such that most appeals are successful.

EDIT: Corrected- no trial, prosecutors didn't charge him.

I'll just quote Napoleon Blownapart's take-

"If you believe that a guy who flew a group of twenty coked out lunatics halfway across the planet to go beat up a guy on a bus doesn't have it in him to assault someone, you're more gracious than I am."

 

[Aegon Spengler]

I wonder if he would have had a better life as a plumber

what trial?

 

[WhiteMousse]

what trial?

Sorry, what I should have said is that the prosecutors refused to pursue him. There was no criminal trial
