I was really horrified to hear that this man's employer found him to be an embarrassment and this was the reason he was let go. All of his years of experience and training.  Frankly I think they should get over themselves.  There are alot of very nasty people out there and they target anyone and everyone.  Being in the wrong place at the wront time with the wrong people happens.  This was not his fault.  18 people have been arrested for this scam.  

If I was his manager, especially in the entertainment business I would have worked the publicity to the shows advantage.  I hope he has a good lawyer so that he can pursue for unjustified dismissal or get him his job back.  If they had to take him back I bet their rating would soar sky high.

Most men have egos and as he said he thought it was harmless to have a drink with the two girls. 

What is even harder to believe is how so many "movie stars and singing celebrities"are glamorised and kept in the media with stories of them recovering here and recovering there but this guy can't be forgiven.  The public seem enamoured by these serial offenders yet one time, one con and the weather man is surplus.  

We all make mistakes, some worse than others but we need to have more patience for each other.  His only big mistake was not calling the police when he first woke up.  

I personally don't have any time for the attention seeking girlfirend or that he said he was single on the show when he is clearly engaged.  Even jerks have rights though!

He came across as a 'ladies man' trying to hide the fact.

It does seem he is using this to gain publicity.   He and his fiance.   Yes, he is a victim of  a crime but he made bad choices to get there.  I'd never heard of him before today's show and I didn't like him.   He was full of himself.  

As I don't know all of the details, I can't say if it was fair to lose his job or not.

Unfortunately, he was probably approached by people all of the time and his ego, well, came off large even after everything he has been through.   Overall, I do think he is a victim but it appears his ego got in the way of common sense - especially after the first night of not remembering what happened.

i watched the show a second time and feel the same, John was a victim.     I think he should be proud that he stood up and took the bullet for so many people who just accepted this deplorable behavior. 88 victims really?.     He has an awesome voice and I'm am sure there is a place for him on TV again or on the radio.    To me he just made a poor choice which  lead to his temporary demise.   Forgive yourself John, it happens to the best of us.    I hope someone in the Westside sees  John's story and give him a chance.   Do not understand why he had to lose his job for this. Reading this Message Board you have alot of fans back in  Philly.   I would pursue a wrongful termination lawsuit.     Hang in there John.

Just because a person goes to a bar and has a couple drinks then one time is drugged and taken advantage of does not make them out to be the villane.  He was the vicitm here, I know what it feels like and I rarely drink and it happened to me.

No child is "entitled" to know every aspect of your life.  If you made msitakes in your past it is none of their business.  Who want's their child to throw past mistakes into their face out of anger?  I bet this young lady has a few skeleton's in her closet she wouldn't want people to know either.  This woman's past mistates are none of her daughters business.

I watched his body language and he was upset and outraged and he had the right to be.  Who said these women were prostitutes.  All these places have camera's and if he was lying, those videos would have already come forth.  As for the money, he still had the stress of having to fight to prove what happened for them to cover the expenses.  They don't just take your call and say OK we will write off the charges without any proof of a crime.  There are too many vicitms for you to say he knew what he was doing or he was in the wrong or commiting a crime himself.

Don’t blame the victim just because he innocently joined two women for a drink.  They targeted him and once you are drugged you will either not remember anything at all or you may have a couple of flashes things that do not make sense at the time.  When they called him back about the sunglasses that was just to put him at ease and to target him a second time.  There are way too many other victims to blame him for their actions.  He was just naïve thinking he was safe because he was a man.

I too was ruffied and lost over 14 hours of my memory. An acquaintance took me out for my birthday and I remember ordering a second margarita, but I don’t remember anything after being served and moving to a table. It wasn't until about 16 months later I heard rumors that I had been transported to a strangers house where I understand another woman sexually abused me and that photos were taken. I tried to track down this house and the man who took the photos to no avail. I finally contacted the police, I understood that nothing could be done about me being ruffied, but I needed to know what happened to me that night. Come to find out, the woman I had to get an order of protection against months earlier for telephone harassment and threats of violence, was supposedly the same woman who sexually abused me that night. Three months later a disabled veteran had to get an order of protection against this same woman. This person is a Sociopathic Narcissist and as soon as the police contacted her she immediately sent out text messages that I was trying to have her arrested in front of her children for rape. This was an attempt to gain sympathy from those we both knew.  The police never accused her of rape, they asked her if she has touched me sexually and the officer did not do this in front of her six year old. The just days after the police spoke with her, she took out an order of protection against me claiming I was in a bar intimidating her and threatening her. The bar manager and another bar tender were prepared to  testify on my behalf that the other woman is the stripper and that I hadn’t been in the bar/restaurant for almost 4 months and they know for a fact I wasn’t in the night she claimed I was there harassing her.  This woman can’t keep her lies straight, she lied to the courts stating that they do not own a motorcycle and I have photos dating from 2009 – 2012 of them and their motorcycles, she claimed that the man she sent over to break down our front door “has never seen me, has never spoken with me and wouldn’t know me if he passed me on the street”.  Then how did he legally serve me papers?  He didn’t do it legally; he beat and kicked at our front door, then dropped them outside the front door while I was protecting my Mother in another room with a loaded gun.  His statement to police alone proves she was lying to the courts.  But the police and courts keep allowing this woman and her family to continue their reign of terror on our town, by never holding anyone of them accountable for their actions,.

 

This woman claimed that I am in bars 7 nights a week drunk and stripped naked in public and sexually abused her and others. One, I rarely drink alcohol and most know me as the cranberry juice lady. Two, I can't be out 7 nights a week because I have family obligations to where I have to be home.  When a family member was here, I occasionally was able to get out late at night for a couple of hours, since nothing was open that late, I taught myself to play pool and it was the biggest mistake I made in my life.  I was surrounded by alcoholics, meth heads, lothario’s and psychos.   The fact of the matter is she is the alcoholic. She is in bars a least 6 nights per week and not home with her husband or her small child.  She is the one who stripped naked at a local tavern and when I told her to put her clothes on back on she claimed that the bartender said if she stripped he would give her a free drink. Once again I told her to put her clothes back on because there were men taking photos and videos of her. Her response was to turn towards our group, bent over and spread her butt cheeks at us. At that point I told her she needed to go into the bathroom and clean herself. She asked why, and I said because you have a wad of toilet paper stuck in your crack. The senior citizen that was playing pool with me said "yeah and it's red!". It wasn't, he was just giving her a hard time for stripping naked in public. She then ran her hand through her crack knocking the toilet paper onto the floor. I told her she needed to wash her hands before touching our table. Six months later in a drunken stupor she came up to me and blamed "me" for embarrassing and humiliating her!   Somehow it was my fault that men had taken photos and videos of her naked and uploaded them on youtube. 

This woman claims to be a loving wife, mother and grandmother; that her favorite book is the Bible.  She has 5 children most by different men; she has had multiple affairs with men in bars one resulting in a pregnancy that her own husband had to pay to abort; which she was proud of and told anyone who would listen.   Calls to police on this woman from multiple people include, her stealing her friends personal items and when she refused to give them back, the friend called police. When the police contacted this woman, she then started threatening her friend for calling the police.  A few months later I called in and report telephone harassment by this woman and I was informed about order of protections. As soon as I could, I filed for protection and was granted one.  Another call to police on this same woman when another friend of hers caught her in the back seat of her car with a man that wasn't her husband. This sociopath then followed her friend inside and started a fight, punching her friend in the eye then fleeing the scene in a drunken stupor leaving her vehicle behind. Another call to police on this woman by her own husband!  This woman then used a fake/third party Face Book account to publicly harass and humiliate a married couple; they had blocked her from their accounts so she used another account to send a long, vicious, defamatory message even threatening that they could not keep another of her victims safe when they came to his aid.  This woman had her male best  friend and her husband repeatedly contact the disabled vet asking him to drop the order of protection against her, when he didn’t she immediately went to court the next day and got an order of protection against him saying all the things she did to him, he did to her.  She parrots all her crimes deflecting blame for all her crimes onto her victims.   Neighbor calls police because this woman and her husband are continually harassing her.  Two more neighbors call police on this woman for her chasing, threatening and cursing them out because she was told to keep herself and her children off their property or they would call police.  She yelled at them, yeah and what are you going to do about it.  While she was out in the bars she is called home because the police were at her house because her husband was kicking the crap out of another neighbor.  After the police left, another call was made to police because this woman and her husband pulled a gun on the neighbor menacing her with it because she had called the police on the assault.  Another call to police was made because this woman’s husband physically assaulted her son while she was at the bar.  Another call to police by this woman’s older daughter because her 8 year old sister called her upset the parents were in a physical fight.  This woman is also accused of taking advantage another disabled veteran by using his debit card to withdraw money to subsidize her gambling addiction.  There are many more calls against this woman to post.  This woman has harassing, assaulting, threatening and stealing from her victims all the while she was a volunteer for SAHM; she claims she was fired for violating confidentiality regulations of minors and seemed proud of it.  She also was a volunteer for Woman Space while she was committing all these acts.  But being a court advocate, she knew how to twist the laws to her advantage.  She claimed to be disabled in order to get protection against her victims; all the while she is out singing karaoke, playing pool or at parties at least 6 nights per week.  There are photos of her riding mechanical bulls in bull riding contests, riding bicycles on bmx trails. Bowling etc.  The broken court system allowed this sick person to continue her harassment on her victims by allowing her to obtain protection against her victims.  Then she posted on Face Book untrue comments misquoting and mocking the Judge’s comments.

Why should any victim, have to shut their mouths and cower in a corner?  We have the right to stand up to these sick people and hold them accountable. That is why I am trying to get tighter regulations on Orders of Protection so victims can’t be re-victimized, but no matter how many calls you make to our Government officials you never get to speak to them, even though they are supposed to be accessible to us.   In all four orders of protection court cases there were about 9 different Judges involved.  Not one Judge knew what the other was doing or what the other said.  One admitted not to reading the files, but she had to have in order to make one of the comments she made to the victims.  Another allowed the perpetrator to make a comment, but violated the rights of the victims by not allowing them to make opening statements.  Which is a direct violation of the Judges Code of Ethics/Conduct rule JR 2-102 (A)  A judge shall provide to every person who has a legal interest in a proceeding, and to that person’s lawyer,

the right to be heard according to law. Neither victim nor their combined 12+ witnesses were allowed to speak under this code.  I felt we as victims were victimized again when the Judge said this was all just childish behavior and bullied the victims in allowing the perpetrator’s attorney to handle the settlement.  We didn’t even have the chance to prove this woman lied time and time again with witness testimony and the perpetrators own online comments, photos as well as her contradictory statements to the court and to the police.

Now when I have to call the police, they do not take me seriously because the Sociopath lied and labeled me an alcoholic, sex abuser and stripper, when in fact she was talking about her own actions.  This is why I am in the process of writing a book accounting all the ways victims are not being protected by our broken court system.

Don’t blame the victims, you could be next.
