I wanted to clarify that my comments were not directed at you, Jenni. Outside of seeing you post on gfy, I don't know anything about you, or your company.
But I personally fail to see how *any* comments to the press are beneficial to DirtyD. In this thread, we have Shelly, a resident of that area, telling us that, thus far, the case is pretty much under the radar. What on earth could be gained by someone (you or the attorney, not sure who is giving the press conference) in essence, jumping up and down, waving their arms, screaming at the mainstream media
"Lookee, lookee, lookee!!! My client has been charged with a crime that has the words "child" and "sex" in it!"
WTF?
On GFY, we may sit here and debate whether it matters if she was 17 and not 18, what her culpability is for using a fake id, etc, etc. But mainstream America isn't going to quibble over those points. They are going to hear "porn" and "underage" and that will be the ballgame, ladies and gents. Sure, there will be some that will actually wait until the facts are heard, but they are not in the majority.
And while stuff that has happened in his past may not be relevant and allowed in court, the media...and with all due respect to XBiz, I mean the mainstream media...will have a field day with stuff like getting a blowjob from another guy in a public theater during a porn movie.
No matter what the Court finds, DirtyD will be found guilty by public opinion about two paragraphs into a press conference.
A press conference? For real?
Seems like an attorney who wants to make a name for himself to me.
To me, the only comment that should be uttered by anyone involved with the defense, or the defendant should be along the lines of
"We are confident that after the Court/jury hears our case that Mr. Whateverhisnameis will be found innocent on all charges. No further comment."
Then again, I am not a lawyer, nor do I play one on TV.
