He literally admitted to domestic abuse & that was the summary of Zoe's post. She discussed in depths an abusive relationship, you have to be kidding if you think that he wouldn't of faced the exact same backlash if she simply omitted the part about rape.
What some of you are missing is that taking things to court & to the police still ends up in a public fallout. The idea that she should be trialed for man slaughter for posting her account of an abusive relationship is ridiculous. And if he committed suicide during court proceedings than the judge should go to prison too I guess?
Or maybe you'd think its appropriate to shift blame to his teammates who cut ties with him over "allegations", although none of us know the discussion & understanding that exists between them
"Seriously, what you see on twitter isn't representative of real life. It's just what makes it into posts. When people who have years-long real life experience with the guy, people who knew him in different situations, locations, ages, and contexts, all say the same thing, you can assume there's more to this than you'd know from outside the situation, taking it in 280 characters at a time."
The situation is a mess and many of you are oversimplifying it, essentially saying never accuse anyone of anything incase they commit suicide, if they do, its blood on your hands. Many are also asserting why he committed suicide as if you spoke to him the days before his death. Maybe it was the loss of his job, but maybe it was shame, guilt, fear etc. We will never know. I'm sure plenty can be learned from the way it was handled but to start shifting blame on individuals as if they're responsible for his actions is absurd.
