Here's another thing that bothers me about Franken's assassination: the pattern

8. Hmm. Where have I seen that before?

Oh yeah, you tried that comparison a few days ago: https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=9903677

So if we're on the rinse and repeat cycle, I'll save myself some bother and repeat what I said then:

Savile was widely known to be a serial sexual danger to young women and others over a long period among the BBC hierarchy and a number of his colleagues - all shamefully covered up.

To date, there is no evidence that Franken had a reputation as a serial groper during his time at SNL nor on USO tours - with SNL, quite the contrary. In the current climate, if there was evidence of such a reputation, I'd guess we'd have heard of it as "corroboration" of the pattern you seem so eager to see.

It's interesting that your mind went immediately to such an extreme comparison.
