Can Harvey Weinstein ever come back?

[Doctor Amadeus]

I know he is old, and I realize this goes beyond Harvey Weinstein, but my question is, if guilty along with others some much younger, can Harvey Weinstein ever come back?

Can a person come back?

My personal opinion is yes, but it wouldn't be easy, and it would and should never be the same. I am a big believer that a person can be sorry and it doesn't change anything, while at the same time being important honestly.


I also believe just because a person makes mistake, doesn't mean they aren't expected to pay for it, forgiveness can be obtained, but forgetting is not required, but what do you think.

Is there point or a line a person or people can cross there is no coming back from, I say there is, but I do believe it's possible to.


Even though I am also a believer it takes a damn near miracle for people to really change.


What do you think?

That's case by case. In Weinstein's case I don't think so, he's fucked.
There's a guy around where I live who was caught masturbating in a park, like not showing himself to people, kinda hidden or something but he was still masturbating in a public place. For a while all his shit was pull from TV, etc. souple years maybe. He came back, but like I said, he didn't assault anyone, no one was hurt by what he did, so he could come back.

[Ivanstone]

Depends how much money he has left after all the legal fallout. If he's still rich, I'm sure he'll probably be ok. You can always buy your way out of trouble in the USA.

[Varvara Spiros Gelashvili]

I think it's possible but he needs to help outs other degenerates like himself to make it happen. Starts some charity to help people(men/women) or start an organization that helps prosecute people like him while staying out of the limelight.

[GennGreymane]

I honestly had no idea who this guy was. I don’t think most people did either

[Doctor Amadeus]

I don’t think the guy wants to change. He wants to save his career.

Yeah, I agree, I think that is what will make it even more unlikely, he has lived his entire life in deception and doing this to women, if the prospect of what he did was ever going to change him it wouldn't have come to this point, so NOW the only thing making him react is the pain and loss to himself, which isn't to say as I said it's impossible, but deep down how would even HE truly know.

Most people couldn't tell their own asshole from a hole in the wall, so what and who most people don't know really isn't a thing

Can he ever come back to a place where systematic sexism and sexual assault occurs? Obviously. He wrote himself out from rehab after 1 fucking week. Money is power and this shitbag has it.

True, but it is worth asking, I mean if some can hold hope for murderers, and many others, I am just curious as are I am sure many.

Where is he hiding out? France with Roman Polanski? I think we have an extradition treaty with France, not sure why the extradition of Polanski failed.

So if New York goes ahead with the rape charge and France allows us to extradite Weinstein, he will come back.

Honestly the statutes of limitations has already expired on almost all of the charges for far,if anybody is looking for much in the way of criminal prosecution, uh unless it happened within the last 9 years, he is off the hook. I am sure @Calista might be able to clear up the particulars on that or correct me.

[Blobfish]

Yes.
Harvey Weinstein can move to San Fernando Valley and become a top Porn Producer.

[cubby]

He will not. Pending rape charges and dozens of sexual assault allegations. No return possible.

[stabetha]

He's a huge liberal supporter, another couple of months and it swept under the rug.

[LiiLoSNK]

He probably will. I don't really care if he does or doesn't.

[IIamaKing]

It would be foolish to assume he stopped having power in the Company. Come Back? He likely never really left. Yes yes, he was fired, so what? You think he doesnt talk with his brother? You think he doesnt have sway?

[Adam Jensen]

More like, another couple months and he'll be on trial and forgotten.

[Doctor Amadeus]

He will not. Pending rape charges and dozens of sexual assault allegations. No return possible.

Have you gone down the charges, cause I haven't most so far seem from over 9 years ago, anything currently possible as far as a criminal charge that you see?

Right anything and everything to try to throw a distraction away from Trump LOL!

[Celista]

Can he make a comeback? Sure, Mel Gibson made a comeback of sorts and Woody Allen, who married his stepdaughter half his age, has been around forever. His behavior indicates that he's a giant piece of shit though and is likely indicative of some sort of personality disorder.

Power can corrupt and in my opinion he should be shunned for his behavior and never allowed that sort of prominence in Hollywood or any other industry again. No matter the industry, we should promote those to positions of power who will treat their position with the respect it deserves, and who won't use it to harass or marginalize others.

[undeadmoon]

I voted no, because in this particular case, with as long a history of awful behaviors as he has, he will never truly change, and the 1st time he's in a position of power and thinks he can get away with being a piece of shit again, he'll go right back to his behavior. He made a huge scene in Hollywood, and caused the U.S. motion picture industry a great deal of controversy, he's pretty done there. Not to mention possible legal charges.

As for whether or not he can have a career or a major media company again, most likely in another country? Probably. There will always be people willing to work with and for him, the question is will there be enough to sustain a career/company or not?

I haven't, no. And yeah the SOL is a concern (assuming all these allegations are true). I read that the NYC Prosecutor is trying to piece together a case, but I don't have the details.

And details like this. https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-...-army-of-spies. This goes way beyond being a creppy old man. This is the set up to a sexual predator.

Agreed. Very disturbing.

(also, side note - love all the Trumpkins who jump on here to condems Libruls and fail to see the irony of electing a sexual predator as president)
