[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So sad! She was a smart, accomplished woman, and those poor kids will need therapy for life.

Fairfax was such a disgusting opportunist and I found the rape allegations against him very credible ( I remember the WaPo did an in-depth investigation and interviewed one of his victims)

I guess his wife didn’t believe the victim? [/quote]

His wife was a victim too. [/quote]

The allegations came out in 2019 for alleged assaults in the early 2000’s.

So? It appears Fairfax was abusing his wife for years to the point she installed cameras in her home. We all first learned about when HE KILLED HER. [/quote]

There were huge, obvious red flags. Which we ALL knew about[/quote]

And nothing was done about it. I was responding to the PP who seemed to be arguing that because the sex assault allegations were old, that they must have been false, or they didn’t count.

Justin and I are contemporaries. I went to college around the same time he did. If those women accused him of rape or sexual assault immediately after it happened, they would have paid the price, not him. People still bend over backwards to protect “promising young men” from the consequences of the violence they inflict on women. There was an award winning movie by Emerald Fennell to that exact point.

The time was right for those allegations in more ways than one. Not only politically, but the fact that “me too” had started to really gain steam and people did not reflexively blame women for rape. I seriously hope that time will come for DV because there are a lot of people on this board blaming Dr Fairfax for not doing enough to not be murdered, or insinuating that suffering the consequences of your own actions against two other women is an acceptable justification for killing your wife.
