You know, I'm willing to bet someone would pay nicely for him to go on air and slam these claims. I'm sure Dr. Phil would love to make another donation to get George back on his show to combat these sexual abuse claims. But all he ever seems to do is talk through Lippman. I don't understand why he doesn't do more to defend himself. As mad as he claims to be at Casey, he's sure not making a big stink of the sexual abuse allegations at all.
Damned if you do, Damned if you don't?
I think GA is in a lose-lose situ with KC's allegations and probably needs to ride out the storm and hope it passes.
While coming out strong to oppose the accusations can convince some of GA's innocence, many are biased to believe the worst of GA anyway, despite everything and it can/will backfire.
From the DT social networking polls GA was seen more as the perp and bad guy while KC was seen as the little girl she was portraying who lies are explained by the abuse. JB's OS was shocking and had a game changing impact.
The accusations have not come directly from KC's mouth but via a backdoor of Psych depositions and jail house letters so it can make GA look bad, even more guilty to challenge these and go against his daughter. Folks will perceive that as him being even more guilty.
I would not be surprised if Ablow is paid by KC supporters to pursue this in order to rehabilitate her image at the cost of GA, support KC's new story when she does an exclusive interview and, gets away with it because it is his expert opinion based on KC's testimony.
Like OJ there will be those who firmly believe KC's accusations are true, there will be those who firmly believe that KC's accusations are lies. Few minds will be changed to cross into either camp but more new recruits can be added.
There will also be many experts and talking heads that will align on both sides based on life experiences and perceptions.
To me, this is a lightning rod for KC to leverage 'abuse' and her story of GA since she will gain support even though folks know that she is a proven liar, that this story evolved, that she is a manipulator, that she is retaliating against GA, that she is deflecting her own 100% guilt.
These accusations will NEVER be PROVEN and will NEVER be DIS-PROVEN -- that's a win-win for KC and a lose-lose for GA. She can stick to her guns. IMO
