The general public has thrown its support behind the beloved actor Terry Crews after his attempt to bring the man who assaulted him sexually to justice was sabotaged.
Full story below…
The man in the image above is Adam Venit, a powerful agent employed by William Morris Endeavour.
Unfortunately for him, his legacy-which once stood on foundations built by his success in Hollywood- finds itself in tatters now that he is known as the man who assaulted the ‘Everybody Hates Chris‘ star…and got away with it.
According to court documents obtained by E! News, the D.A. argued that the alleged conduct did not rise to the level of a felony. “Given that the suspect did not make contact with the victim’s skin when he grabbed the victim’s genitals and there is no restraint involved, a felony filing is declined,” the doc stated.
As for the city attorney, they had to reject the case due to statute of limitations. The incident occurred in February 2016 and the statute for a misdemeanor is one year.
If Venit hoped this news would mark the end of the drama today saw him learn that it is anything but.
Why? The general public.
RT: We DEMAND the firing of #AdamVenit who is currently on leave IMMEDIATELY. This is totally ridiculous and had this been a white woman or man this ongoing abuse would not be occurring. #MeToo has to be for EVERYBODY! Call WME 310-285-9000 https://t.co/DO07TcuQVU

“Terry Crews” @terrycrews The guy gropes Terry Crews twice but the statute was just a year? A year? Most victims, male or female, still haven’t come to grips with it within a year. This is not right.

Terry Crews SO LA District Attorney said it was no skin Contact? So ppl can grope you in LA as long as iyou have clothes on with no consequence! Such BS! I’m glad ppl see what typically women go thru. No justice! Sue his ass off! Then I hope Hollywood drops him! Public support?

I hope Terry Crews sues that man into oblivion. I hope Hollywood takes action against Adam like they did Harvey. They probably won’t but it’d be cool if they did! Be cool if they just completely boycotted WME period because the company is trash for keeping Adam on!

Welcome to being a woman? Terry Crews is an black man. He doesn’t need to be an woman, understand the justice system is not on his side.

One wonders how WME will be remembered in years to come if it continues to employ Venit and characters like him.

Perhaps Terry should sue him in civil court where the statute of limitations is 2 years in CA.
He definitely needs to sue. For them to throw out his case because he had clothes on when he was groped is OUTRAGEOUS.
Where is our justice?
