This is one of those where it is hard to imagine the uproar if he'd walked free from all of this and started his career again.

Good to see justice being served

Less then 1% of rape trials end in a conviction in this country, this shockingly low number I would imagine is reflected much the same in the states. At least they got him on 2 counts 1 being third degree rape! Hope he does some serious jail time.

Between 5 and 25 years in jail. Not sure how they work out the severity of the sentence.

Lube up Harvey, it's payback time.

Funny how when something like this happens, the perpetrator seems to lose the ability to walk unassisted. Hoping looking frail and old will help them I suppose.

Mrs Peteinblack said yesterday: "I bet if he was shown a nice pair of bare tits a few yards in front of him, his mobility would recover immediately."

The whole slightly-unshaven, tie and collar askew, I-need-a-walker, bent over shuffling pity-me parade was, quite possibly, the greatest Oscar-winning performance he's ever been involved in.

I doubt he afforded his victims any lube. He may be about to learn what absence of consent means. The fat pervert pondlife.

He should have turned up in court in pajamas, then the jury might have doubted the charges against him.

In a slightly paradoxical way, it's probably worked in his victims favour that all not charges were proven. Up to yesterday it has been "trial by media" and there must have been concern about a fair trial.

Looks like the jury took their responsibilities very seriously and convicted based on what was in front of them.

Toad of a man, a more disgusting, repulsive specimen I’m struggling to envisage. Thank god the sociopath is now behind bars and will die there. Just hope all his assets are sued from under him now. Not exactly be needing them will he.

Good. The idea someone as ugly as him really thought the sex with him was consensual is mind blowing.
