I've never met the man and know nothing about him except reckoning he's yet another victim of the False Allegations Industry - the fastest growing crime area in the world, making cocaine smuggling look like a snowflake.

As a result I shall not comment on any specific, nor on the anonymous perpetrators, legally guaranteed cash and media silence in perpetuity.

But we all heard the rumours (that he tended to "go too far" in persuading young men to go along with his desires). Just as we heard that Jimmy Savile liked "young girls" - all, we were certain - legal and willing. And we all know police, lawyers and media encourage False Accusers to exaggerate or invent, turning something consensual and legal (if not pleasant) into a money earning crime. ENABLERS.

It doesn't even need to be a crime these days. BLACKMAIL has been adapted to be legal and approved by society; a way to make cash from superficial encounters or even relationships. Added colour by experts. Added legal aspects by obeying the letter (if not the spirit) of the law.

Spacey may escape jail. He may even escape with only having to spend most of his past earnings. He could even resume his career. But I wouldn't bet on it - with media, police and the law ranged against him.

My real pity goes to those innocents who have been and will be punished for crimes that never took place. Fathers who bathed their children and are now doing long jail sentences for abuse that never happened. Mothers whose drug addiction and incompetence have lost them their kids wrongly. Families ruined, friends damaged for sticking by innocent people.

Polite correction by Victorian press-victim gay genius Oscar Wilde, 1891, "The Fourth Estate is now the only estate, it has eaten up the other three. The Lords Spiritual say nothing, the Lords Temporal have nothing to say, and the Commons has nothing to say and says it! We are dominated by journalism."
