Answer 1

I am not sure which case you are referring to, however, the laws are in place and the folks involved should be sumarily fired from their position. There are laws on the books covering the use of federal funds by eomployees in a travel status as well as laws covering the behavior of federal employees, civilian and military, while on foreign soil. Usually the agency involved wants to avoid the bad publicity and embarrassment and will down play the incidents or actually cover it all up.

Answer 2

No. Yes, at once. Absolutely.

Rep Conyers D-Mich settled sexual harassment suits with public funds. The old perv is finally stepping down, but not reimbursing the public.

Also, this brand of civil dis-service is nothing new. The CIA has been bankrolling the drug trade with taxpayer dollars for decades, while the Secret Service was buying ho’s in foreign countries on the public dime, and the NSA has been invading our privacy for many years with equipment bought with our own tax dollars.

Answer 3

I think those "Accused" should remain innocent until PROVEN otherwise.

Also, when reviewing the cases there needs to be an acceptance of the role they WERE in at the time versus the role they are in currently. There are several that are accused who had the altercations as TEENAGERS . . . Both of them not just one of them. So when you show a 50-60 year old man and say he had sexual misconduct with this woman . . . And you show her picture at 17, when really she is currently the same age as he is . . . There is a real perception problem.

It's great that Weinstein's power waned enough that people could come forward, but the Pandora's box of "Half Truths" and "Outright Lies" is immediately accepted as "Absolute Truth" . . . I am still in awe that people really never fully believed in the "Casting Couch" as part of the Hollywood Culture . . . It's all a BIG SURPRISE . . . Sure it is.

Also, the memory of a human being is flawed . . . Especially over time . . . We relive or reimagine the memory and fill it in with a more emotional image then might have been what really transpired . . .
