Cotto faces sexual harassment lawsuit

[TheBranMan]

Story sounds bogus. Miguel could get any girl he wants... I'm sure there was an affair but that's all. It's no secret he's got problems with his marriage. I just hope this woman doesn't get unjustifiably rich from it.
As if the poor guy needs anything else working against him at this point in his life..

Im sorry bro but i always find that argument BS, when someone says "Well he could get any women he wants so he must be innocent".

What about Kobe Bryant or Mike Tyson, or Dave Hilton or Tony Ayala Jr for example ? now obviously im not putting Miguel Cotto in the same league as those guys, but it does happen rich or not, famous or not.

You are very right. Good point. Although having read the court documents (available on another thread) and every available source on this alleged "harassment," I can comfortably say that this is not nearly as serious or air-tight a case as some of the precedents you mentioned. Don't get me wrong, I'm not jumping to any definite conclusions (that's for the court) but the man is innocent until proven guilty, and it would not be the first time that a predator went after a successful sportsperson's bankroll (or even their public image) because they happened to be in a position to do so.

EDIT: Although reading that post back, it's fairly evident that I'm a bit bias because I'm a Cotto fan. Still, right now it's just a he-said-she-said scenario.

Honestly, I don't know if it is true. Not that I don't believe in the guy,s possible antics on the matter in the past or that I think he's absolutely guilty but when it comes to celebrity, it is always 50-50: 50% are true because they can do it and are cashing opportunities over the fact and 50% are peoples just trying to make money out of these peoples. LEt's see. PErsonally, I don't give a flying F is somebody cheats his husband or his wife, that's all their domestic problems and I do not feel concerned whatsoever by that. On the other hand, sexual harassment is pretty bad stuff and if ever he's found guilty of the thing, he'll drop a bit in my esteem.

The thing is that women can get away with things like this . I would hate to hear Cotto was sent to jail while this woman is happily counting the money she made out of this.

here Chino goes again.

Hey! It is something that happens quite often so what can we say? Hope Cotto can retire in peace darn it and if he is guilty, well, got to face the consequences .

but when it comes to celebrity, it is always 50-50: 50% are true because they can do it and are cashing opportunities over the fact and 50% are peoples just trying to make money out of these peoples

Nameless,
That's the thing. And even if Cotto comes out innocent (I hope) his reputation is already ruined while the false accuser is just fine.

... ANd why do you want his reputation to be stained no matter if it's true or not? if he's innocent, I really hope he'll get out of this quite good overall.

Of course I wouldn't want his reputation ruined true or not. I am just saying that when things like this happen and a guy DOES come out innocent, his reputation is still ruined forever regardless of being innocent. It is his face that comes out in the press and not the false accuser's normally.

funniest thing i've heard today, it's been all over the news, sorry but the chicks story is a bit retarded, she says that Cotto threatened to fire her if she didn't have sexual relations with him, so therefore they had an affair for 2 months, lmao, seriously i'm not letting Cotto off the hook if it's true, cause that's fucked up, but she can't make herself out to be the victim when she could have just as easily told him to fuck off and quit, of course she's not gonna do that when she can easily seek a $500,000 minimum, but yea back to the story at hand Cotto needs to get his shit together and get focused

Diane is gonna jump all over this Not the case, but the position for that job

Diane made the joke herself in the 4th post of this thread. That is just 4 posts above your one. How did you miss that?

Wonder if *Star* would have noticed it?
