    People who may be unhinged and want some retribution? Think about it, Chris. A kicker misses a field goal in the big game and gets death threats. This kind of revenge mentality is out there. I don't blame him one bit - he's got a family to protect and if someone is unstable and thinking he was complicit and part of the problem, then there could be threats made to him as well.

    People still listen to Michael Jackson records....
    I don't. I grew up in the 80s and I remember the allegations in the 90s. Pretty easy for me to drop him too, like Ryan Adams.

    I'm unloading all of my Ryan Adams records. I know that we don't know the "full story" yet, but I know enough to stop listening to his albums regardless of how much I like his music. 
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    Got it. 

    Ryan Adams isn't a person I would be afraid which is why I asked.

    It just seems weird to be afraid of someone who will be in prison soon.

    On a related note:
    A grand jury has been convened in Cook County, Illinois, in connection with new allegations against singer R. Kelly, according to two sources close to the case.
    This is a result of a new tape with a 14-year old girl that Avenatti has been talking about.  R' Kelly's days of freedom may be limited.

    He got acquitted last time - I don't know how he's gotten away with his crazy brainwashing shit for so long. I hope this tape does it, he not only is a sexual predator, he controls them and keeps them like slaves. It's scary crazy what some people are capable of doing.

    Who knows how much control Ryan has over this guy's money, how much he know about his life and would be willing to use against him (anything can be made to sound nefarious, esp when someone is good at manipulations. 

    Ryan Adams has the walls closing in on him and a narcissist does not go down quietly. They like to take as many people as they can with them. 

    I'm sure there are people in his circle that are still loyal for whatever reason and could damage someone's life, finances, reputation - he's gonna start striking back at people.

    People still listen to Michael Jackson records....
    People still listen to Bruce Springsteen records..!
    Bruce is just stupid, he didn't break any laws...
    WTF did Bruce do? I googled and couldn't find anything close to nefarious.

    Last time he paid off the family and the girl refused to testify.  He learned what he could get away with it.  If you watch the documentary, the girls willingly stay with him, so it's hard to prosecute anything. Hopefully this is the end for him.

    I haven't watched the documentary yet but I know that the families of at least 2 girls/women that live with him can't even speak with them - they've been completely brainwashed and believe that they are happy. Since they are of age and say everything's good, nothing can be done.  It's very sad and scary.



    Hopefully there's definite proof and no way for him to pay his way out of this. People shouldn't be able to get away with stuff just because they have money and power. Definitely not how the courts and police would handle the situation if this was not a famous well-connected guy. Sick.

    I agree.  That fear is why domestic violence/abuse has remained so prevalent.  That needs to change.  I've heard people say that if he wasn't rich and the girls weren't minorities, it would be a different result.  I can't say, but legally speaking, it's hard to prosecute the mental manipulation.  Same goes for Ryan, most of that article was manipulation.  The underage girl is what could get him legally.
