for press releases. This is a discussion forum, and I expect posters to DISCUSS. Maybe the press release stuff (with links that all go to fund raising pages which pisses me off when I want to investigate allegations that look like they have supporting links) belongs in its own forum?

His issues with his partner (not wife, since she wasn't divorced when they "married&quot don't concern me; fraud and lies should not be rewarded, and the fact she wasn't honest about the situation/tried to blackmail her soon-to-be-ex with false abuse charges (disputed by actual video and the testimony of her oldest child) tells me a lot about her character. Of course, "like attracts like" and he is a fighter, too, so having him on our side makes me happy.
