https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2016/nov/26/david-hamilton-found-dead-amid-allegations-of-historical<snip>
On the Mediterranean beaches of Cap dAgde, British photographer David Hamilton was a familiar figure in the 1980s looking for young girls to model for his pictures.
Shopping was the word he used and he knew what he was seeking: young, early teens, preferably blonde, blue-eyed and with pale, almost translucent skin; the epitome of the age of innocence, the title of one of his best-selling books.
Parents rarely refused when he asked if the youngsters could come to his studio to pose, honoured that their child had been spotted by a world-famous artist. But Hamiltons motives, it has been claimed, were far from innocent.
On Friday evening, days after allegations resurfaced that he had raped and sexually abused a number of his young models, the London-born photographer, who had repeatedly denied the accusations, was found dead in his Paris home. Police reported that a bottle of medication was found nearby, and declared that Hamilton, 83, had taken his own life.

He threatened to sue but he won't. If they sue, he will settle like he does to make things go away.

Are you trying to prove that Democrats have just as strong knee-jerk reactions to fake captions as Republicans?
