44. There's just too much

That has surrounded this guy - going back to when he first became Harvey W's 'darling'. There's stuff out there going back to Apt Pupil. And there's been a few too many broken souls who have been around this man. I'm inclined to believe this now man (the exposer) - although by the law Mr. Singer is innocent until proven guilty.

Amy Berg is directing a documentary about this very seedy underbelly of Hollywood and Singer is included in it. She's been working on this for two years.

I don't think she'd touch it with a ten foot pole if it didn't have legs.

For those quick to defend - where are you on the Catholic Church's abusive history? Was Amy Berg good on this?

Deliver Us from Evil
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0814075/

Documentary about Father Oliver O'Grady, a Catholic priest who was relocated to various parishes around the United States during the 1970s in an attempt by the Catholic Church to cover up his rape of dozens of children.

How about West of Memphis?
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2130321/

An examination of a failure of justice in the case against the West Memphis Three.

BB - She wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole unless she had her shit together. She just wouldn't.
