Let’s say example DONT worry about Janel Grants response for a second. That lawsuit showing Vince McMahon texts narrative. That’s DAMAGING enough to value that civil lawsuit into the MILLION I’d say a high numbers best case scenario for Janel grants perspective I wouldn’t at all be surprised she gets $1 billion dollars.

So Vince deletes her texts, but keeps her love letters? That tells you something right there. Always thinking ahead.
@mr.c4p
4 күн бұрын
deleting texts takes 0.5 seconds. the letters are probably stored somewhere and getting to them might require some sort of effort. why would getting rid of physical paper letters she wrote him be a top priority? the phone, he's looking at all day. normally when you break up with someone, you do delete their number/texts. men tend to do that, anyway.
“Best” case scenario is that Vince entered into a consensual relationship with someone who he then hired at his publicly traded company, had group sex with her and another employee during work hours at the office, shared explicit stories and pictures of her with other employees during work hours, used her as a sexual bargaining chip while negotiating an employment agreement with yet another employee and then used company money to pay her off. It’s still totally abhorrent and inexcusable behavior.

According to Dave's logic at the end, the way to get a NDA voided is to completely break the terms, compelling the other party to also break the NDA. As a result, all terms of the NDA would just get thrown out? Shouldn't the person who first broke the terms be held accountable?

@@cameron3578 Let me ask you this. If you were wrongly accused of the things Vince was would you seriously sit back and be that strategic about it? I wouldn't! I would be shooting off every day about how and why she's lying.
Unfortunately for those who want to see Vince brought to justice: The odds of prosecution tank significantly in the presence of a civil suit, as it's much more difficult to prosecute someone who had to pay a civil judgement as juries look at the defense as if they've already been punished. It's also much easier to win a civil judgement, so many victims choose to sue if the DA tells them the odds of winning the case aren't great. All that said, if Federal prosecutors bring charges, it's nearly always a slam dunk. Their conviction rate is over 99%.
Dave should join the Elite as a heel manager.

They can get text messages directly from the phone company
I've watched enough ID true crime shows that I know forensic computer people can find anything deleted. Nothing is ever truly deleted...except if you're Broken Matt Hardy 😂
So he didn’t delete the pictures lol
The texts are likely still there at the very least on the companies servers. Normal text messages go from your, to your phone company and then the person they were intended for. In ALL MOST ALL CASES, the company retains a copy. With an Android the texts will still be in the cloud unless removed from there.. I am over Vince. His own dark BS has caught up with him. As if Vince has been faithful to anyone in his life. Rich a#$holes.
