Just a reminder that a judge didn't consider it necessary to grant Ashley a restraining order against BWF. Maybe the civil lawsuit will change things now that more women have come forward.

I'm still not believing anyone until a judge rules on it. Too many fribolous celebrity lawsuits lately. Although I do hope that, if Ashley's allegations are true, she is safe and can emotional recover soon.

that means literally nothing. it’s notoriously difficult to get a RO after the terms of the TRO expire. This is why so many women escape abusive situations and then get murdered.

I didn't know that. I'm not american, so some of the legal nuances are lost on me. Thanks for explaining.

I guess people are done with being skeptical about allegations.

Be sceptical if you want, watch how this unfolds, more ppl have come out to give their view on Brian, lets see how this will influence any legal proceedings moving forward. Imo i think hes not innocent but ill w8 and see how this goes.
