Literally years of recorded footage

No, there isn't. It's been 10 months and there's been no hard evidence, just stolen images and out of context clips that are constantly contested by the people in said pictures/clips, such as the charity auction which was presented as "girl is forced to be kissed by Mignogna because nobody bid", which then turned out to be "girl bids $400 to be kissed and is absolutely ecstatic about it and still has the signed jacket". There's also been accounts from other co-workers saying that the people coming out with these allegations have hated him behind his back for years, for no real reason. This is cut-and-dry, just not in the direction you think.

Edit: to the downvoters, let me ask you this - if they're telling the truth, why is it surrounded by so many needless lies? Why do they keep spreading provably false stories? Why did Monica needlessly perjure herself over Bin Shimada (She claimed Toei asked them to change Broly's VA because they had changed the JP actor. This never happened.) and a poster (she claimed Vic got preferential treatment, getting top billing on a poster for a show despite being a secondary character while she voiced the main character. People found the poster. No one was billed on it, only the character was prominent.)? Why did her star witness come forward with an affidavit saying it didn't happen? Why did Monica and her serial-marital-abuser fiance lie to conventions, telling them that Vic was about to receive criminal charges?

All they have is lies, while Vic has hard evidence that they're trying to ruin him through Kamehacon. I don't understand how anyone can see otherwise, even with the Judge not handling his first TCPA very well.

Vic doesn't have any fucking evidence. Why are you dying on this hill for some man you've never met, who doesn't give a shit about you, because he voiced a fucking cartoon character you liked? You'll go this far to embarrass yourself here for this dude, over the women(and literal children) he's been harassing for years? Why??

[u/Zack_Osbourne → u/apurplepeep]

He does have evidence, it's even in the record, Judge Chupp just straight up ignored it. And according to the guy who was seated next to that "journalist" in the courthouse on that day, she was heavily biased before it even began. I'd fetch a link and timestamp, but I'm on break at work rn and don't have time. And again, there is no evidence he's harassed anyone, yet here you are parroting it.

For the record, if I was basing my opinion on "who voiced a character I liked", I'd be siding with Monica. Tanya Degurechaff is one of my favourite fictional characters of all time. Instead my opinion is based on logic, established fact, and my sheer disgust at people who lie about being a victim purely for their own gain. I fight this fight because of that disgust, and because it's innocent until proven guilty, and nothing has been proven.

Oh, and if you think the lawsuit is over, it isn't, it's going through appeals.

[u/apurplepeep → u/Zack_Osbourne]

when guys go to this level to defend some random molester of the week that they'd risk coming off as obsessed as this, I can't help but think you actually don't give a fuck about him but are rather defending yourself and what you think is okay to do to chicks and not be punished for it. I just don't know why else you put so much of yourself into these arguments when the obvious is really clear. All the footage, all the pictures, all the corroborated reports for years and years and here you are, still trying to worm out of it? Why else?

you know, if you just stepped back from this and reconsidered your life, you'd have nothing to lose. Try to think of who the sort of guy would be who defends men who molest and abuse others, and then don't be that guy. I'm trying to help you out here.

[u/Zack_Osbourne → u/apurplepeep]

No, what he's accused of doing is not ok, the issue is he doesn't appear to have actually done any of it, yet people like you insist he has on word of mouth alone and are dead set on ruining an innocent man's life over it. The "footage, pictures and reports" are all unverified and a large number have been confirmed to be fake, which drastically lowers the credibility of the rest.

You keep dodging it, so I'm going to keep hammering it home: the vast majority of the allegations are either so outlandish they couldn't possibly have happened without evidence ("I saw Vic force himself on a child in his signing booth! He was surrounded by thousands of people with cameras who were all looking at him, and I was the only one who saw it, but it's true!"), or have been verified as false by the people in the "evidence", by con staff who work at the conventions he was "banned" from (they confirmed he has never been banned, for any reason) and by his other co-workers, who also exposed significantly more serious allegations towards his accusers, which are also far more credible by simple virtue of not being associated with compulsive liars.

you've got to re-evaluate yourself and your priorities.

[u/Zack_Osbourne → u/apurplepeep]

Oh do I now? In what way? Because it feels right to me to vehemently defend basic human rights, specifically presumption of innocence in this case.
