Joshua Primo waived; accused of indecent exposure toward three women

[Celtics2021]

This whole thing was very odd. Will be interesting to see who signs him.

Very weird, since the entire thing supposedly wasn't about money.  I guess she can claim she "exposed" the Spurs and Primo, but didn't the lawsuit come after the fact?

Yeah, the lawsuit was after the fact. Seems like it was about the money. Usually is.

What makes you say that?

Not to speak for Goldstar, but the lawsuit was settled without any acknowledgment of wrongdoing, no criminal prosecution, no announced discipline or changes with the Spurs organization, no reinstatement of the plaintiff, no public apology, etc.  If this was a lawsuit based upon public exposure -- or even getting the victim's reputation back -- you would think it wouldn't be settled so quietly.

But, that's all just conjecture.  It's hard to read tea leaves about motivations, when you don't have all of the facts.

Yep, couldn’t have said it better. All of that.

So then why did you decide it was about money?

When someone says it’s not about the money, then hires the specific lawyer that she did and quickly settles, it seems to be about the money.

You're going to have to elaborate. I legitimately don't understand where the money component is coming in.

She did not move forward with a lawsuit. Almost immediately settled. Why do you suppose that would be?

Because she didn't want a long protracted situation going on where she could be dragged through the mud. For all you know she took seriously less money to settle and be done with this and get out of the limelight than she could have if she went full "take no prisoners, get me max money" in her lawsuit.

When you hire Tony Buzzbee, better get a decent settlement for the $1200/hour he charges.

I’m sure the settlement, even if she asked for nothing monetarily for herself, included attorney fees.  Let’s be real, here.

And yet you have no clue if she settled for massive amounts less than she could have if she took it much farther. That she was settled with so quickly shows she probably had an airtight case to win, too.

Also, I don't care who you are, if you have a great case, hire the best lawyer. It's the smart move. No reason to be critical of her for being smart

Nick, you have no clue either. It’s all speculation. Not sure why you’re trying to make it seem like you know better. You don’t.

[nickagneta]

Let's also be real about what's happening in this thread right now. It's the same thing that would have happened if she took this to the end and went to court looking for huge money.

Gold star is trying to make it seem the victim was the issue. She's all about the money. She dressed sexy. She led him on. She wanted him to do this. All so she could get money. It's what happens to sexual victims in court all the time and it's disgusting.

BTW she's a sports psychologist/therapist caring for multimillionaire clients. I think she probably doesn't need the money.

Yeah, but I'm not trying to make the victim look like a money grubbing.......not nice lady.

If you settle it's almost always for less than if you win in court. That she settled shows it wasn't about the money.

The way you are trying to paint this is just wrong. I’m not trying to make the victim look any which way. To me a prosecution would have shown that it was not about the money. Regardless, I Hope she gets a 7 figure settlement. I also feel like Primo deserves to suffer more than simply having a lighter wallet. Perhaps Silver will step in and suspend him if/when he catches on with another NBA team.

I don't think Nick is saying he knows. What we're both saying is you don't seem to have any reason to make your claim that it was actually about money.

I legitimately don't understand how you reached the conclusions, given we don't know anything about the terms of the settlement.

All about the money, as opposed to your idea of justice? Or something else? If you don't think this portrayal of the victim as a money-grubber discredits them, then that's on you.

She did not move forward with a lawsuit. Almost immediately settled. Why do you suppose that would be?

Because she didn't want a long protracted situation going on where she could be dragged through the mud. For all you know she took seriously less money to settle and be done with this and get out of the limelight than she could have if she went full "take no prisoners, get me max money" in her lawsuit.

When you hire Tony Buzzbee, better get a decent settlement for the $1200/hour he charges.

And yet you have no clue if she settled for massive amounts less than she could have if she took it much farther. That she was settled with so quickly shows she probably had an airtight case to win, too.

Also, I don't care who you are, if you have a great case, hire the best lawyer. It's the smart move. No reason to be critical of her for being smart

Nick, you have no clue either. It’s all speculation. Not sure why you’re trying to make it seem like you know better. You don’t.

I don't think Nick is saying he knows. What we're both say is you don't seem to have any reason to make your claim that it was actually about money.

I legitimately don't understand how you reached the conclusions, given we don't know anything about the terms of the settlement.

Again, I said that it seems like its more about the money, didn’t claim that it was for sure. Have already stated why I think that in this thread, so you can go back and read it if you want to.

Based on what?

I said it before, I'll say it again. The victim is a psychologist/ therapist specializing in sports psychology and has a clientele that includes the San Antonio Spurs and their players. She's most probably making big bucks. Why would this be all about the money for someone like her?

I say it's a million times more likely she settled quickly, and most likely she took way less money than she could have if she took the case all the way to criminal and civil courts, because she didn't want to go through the stress and notoriety of being a victim in court where she gets painted as the villain by defense lawyers and so she could maintain her clients, who might not want to be involved with someone going through something like that.
