You must be aware, aren’t you, that Bill Cosby already played this same sympathy card? He appeared frail and weak, walking with a cane outside the courtroom … until that one day when he did a little jig for an adoring fan seeking birthday cheer. Fortunately, behind-the-scenes power brokers like you are unlikely to fall prey to public adoration.

Keep shuffling, Harvey. Best case scenario, that walker will land you in a segregated prison cell. Worst case, it will make you appear like the broken-legged gazelle to an institution filled with hungry lions. Either way, those of us who have encountered men like you in our lives will do everything in our power to remind the public that you’re not worthy of sympathy. You’re a charlatan and a predator and we know you’d ditch that walker in a heartbeat for a shot at Hollywood’s next starlet. Allegedly.
