I just law the latest news about the Elmo sex abuse pseudo scandal. Kevin Clash hasn't been convicted of anything, his original accuser retracted his allegations and yet he still lost his job and his life has probably been ruined. Awesome. It's great to know that you can expect no real due process if you're ever falsely accused of a sex crime.

Didn't the accuser retract the retraction?

I thought I heard yesterday that the guy retracted his retraction. LOL. No I am serious.

Retracted the retraction? Yeah, that guy's a credible accuser

I think he was paid off and is now reconsidering. Could be he wants more money or could be he feels dirty for caving. Who knows for sure?

The accuser appears to be a repeat criminal so I doubt that he feels "dirty" about anything.

Did he turn to a life of crime in response to the self-hate generated from the molestation? I'm just kidding/speculating I don't know anything about this situation other that the retracted retraction thing I heard.
