All tag results for 'molestation'

This momma bear has her daughter's back all day, everyday.

Dylan Farrow bravely opened up about molestation claims in regard to Woody Allen, and she's got all her mother's support as Mia Farrow is speaking out to be there for her.

She recently took to Twitter to address the matter:

I love my daughter. I will always protect her. A lot of ugliness is going to be aimed at me. But this is not about me, it's about her truth.

— mia farrow (@MiaFarrow) February 4, 2014

But this certainly isn't the first time she was there for Dylan after she came forward with these painful claims.

WOW! We didn't think this would happen!

After Dylan Farrow penned an emotional open letter about the alleged molestation she suffered at the hands of her (then) step-father Woody Allen, it seems that it's all anyone can talk about!

While she's received a fair share of support from A LOT of people, Barbara Walters is not one of them!

On The View, the ladies were discussing the letter and Babs actually DEFENDED Woody, even going so far as to say that it's unfair to criticize Woody now!!

What the WHAT?!?!

Sherri Shepard spoke about the whole situation and had said something that Babs didn't really like.

Woody Allen has certainly been at the center of a lot of controversy in his life.

But this latest claim has to be one of the most shocking and difficult matters.

Dylan Farrow came forward in an open letter to Hollywood and the world to accuse Woody of molestation when she was a child. But this wasn't the first time she made these claims.

As a child, Dylan did address the matter with her mother and that turned into an investigation. However, that investigation and prosecution of the crime came to an end because of a very controversial move by state's attorney Frank S. Maco.

While he claimed there was "probable cause" to prosecute Woody, he ended up dropping the case because Dylan seemed too "fragile" to handle the court case:

This is just such a horrible and difficult situation.

We're not even sure how those questioned in Dylan Farrow's open letter about Woody Allen's alleged molestation of her should react, but Cate Blanchett is trying to address it.

The actress, who has been nominated and been winning this awards season for her work in the Woody film Blue Jasmine, was questioned in Dylan's letter along with a number of other Hollywood stars who have worked quite a bit with Woody in the past.

And now, Cate has stepped up to react to the terrible and heartbreaking letter. She said:

The heartbreaking truth behind Alexis Neiers' drug fueled past and Bling Ring antics are finally exposed…

It took an intense therapy session in rehab and spooky scary dreams for Alexis to understand she was repressing memories of childhood molestation at the hands of a family member:

Here it comes, folks — the next wave of justice to come out of the awful Jerry Sandusky child molestation scandal that rocked Penn State is on the horizon!

The three Penn State officials that are trying to say that Mike McQueary didn't sufficiently report seeing Sandusky having sex with an underage boy in the school locker room, which led to them assuming it was just 'horse play' (YEAH RIGHT), have been ordered by the judge to stand trial!

Prosecutors did their job and totally showed enough evidence during the preliminary hearing — the one where McQueary said that Joe Paterno admitted that the school handled the scandal incorrectly — to warrant a trial for ex-President Graham Spanier, former vice president Gary Schultz and ex-athletic director Tim Curley!

If you cover up molestation like this, you're damn close to being just as bad as Sandusky… and to add insult to injury, they allegedly did it all for the sake of a sport! AWFUL.

According to prosecution, the men engaged in a 'conspiracy of silence.' Not only did they not tell the police about Sandusky ruining children's lives, but then they covered up how they failed to tell police about the accusations — EVEN AFTER police investigated complaints about Sandusky showering with boys back in 1998!

The key testimony centered on emails among the three defendants discussing the 1998 and 2001 cases and McQueary's testimony.

Spanier said this during a statement at the hearing:

If we're to believe this witness, it sounds like Joe Paterno DID in fact disagree with how the university "mishandled" its response to Jerry Sandusky's child sex abuse scandal, and was worried the school would try to scapegoat him.

Mike McQueary was the one who testified about this as a star witness in a hearing for three former Penn State officials accused in a cover-up. Specificially, Paterno said that
