The Chris Noth Sexual Misconduct Allegations

There is less than an hour left before the day is over and I just started writing this post. I wanted to address this topic in a special post first before I did anything else in this blog. This is because of how this was a fairly recent topic to cover and I wanted to get it done soon. That means if I weren’t so cursed with not being able to see movies in theaters, this would still show up first instead of one on either of the two Kingsman films that are on DVD already.

 

Now let’s get to the actual point of this blog. Most people who followed The Good Wife would know that Chris Noth played the important role of Peter Florrick, despite never being in the main cast for some odd reason. He was accused by many people thus far about sexual misconduct.

 

I’ve seen far too much of SVU in my life. Thus, the fact that he’s claiming that some of these encounters with these accusers seems like he’s guilty of those accusations. How often does a rapist try to gaslight his accusers by saying something like that? Why isn’t the claim more often that it never happened?

 

I won’t speak to his guilt as that as of yet remains unknown. What I do know is that he was fired from his role in The Equalizer and he also was dropped by an acting agency, lost a $12 million deal relating to his tequila, was pulled from a Peloton ad, and was not set to appear again in the show And Just Like That. If you want to know more about what we know thus far, here’s a list of links about this:

And after these links from Wikipedia are shared, I won’t do much except end this post. I don’t know whether or not he is guilty of all this. We’ll have to wait and see what happens with this. At least in some places, he seems guilty, but that might be up to the courts or just the court of public opinion to judge him. We should take the accusations seriously. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.
