Nothing more...in a legal sense...is going to happen to Lauer.
He'll just have to console himself with his remaining $60 million (that's after his divorce settlement)
That's what Harvey Weinstein (who has a lot more money) thought. He's out of on bail awaiting a January criminal trial on five sex crimes, one dates back to 2006.
Did any of Weinstein's accusers admit to multiple consensual encounters, even if only quid pro quo as Nevils alleges?
I'm a little unclear on your question, Bill. Are you implying that if a woman has had consensual sex with an individual, the individual cannot commit an act of rape against the woman in the future? That the woman's "No" actually forever more becomes "Yes?"
Just pointing out an allegation of one non-consensual encounter in an otherwise consensual relationship won't be sufficient to interest a prosecutor, setting aside the jurisdictional issues involved.
Lauer will continue to successfully represent himself as just another lecher running a casting couch, all the while "bemoaning" the impact of his behavior on his family, i.e. "I'm so very, very sorry...that I got caught."
