      My fiancee and I listened to a Behind the Bastards episode about Tate. we didn’t really know or care who he was, but after listening to that, I’m 100% convinced he’s getting what he deserves. It saddens me that so many young men look up to this guy as a role model

    He went on to gain notoriety online, with Twitter banning him for saying women should “bear some responsibility” for being sexually assaulted. He has since been reinstated.

    Super cool, good job Twitter.

    Fuck this guy. Hope he’s convicted.

    Glad this has actually led to criminal charges, and I’m actually confident that the Romanian authorities have been following due process and not preparing to throw him through a kangaroo court because he openly bragged about how corrupt their nation is.

    Romania is one of the more conservative Eastern European states, and if they’re doing a sex trafficking investigation into the Tate Brothers, then you know this isn’t some ‘woke conspiracy’ to depose them, like many of their followers claim.

    Imagine the absolute shock if Andrew Tate was released without charge. Would you really want to be the person who vindicates that bloomy rind dick cheese?

    It frustrates me how many people, even ones close to mine are obsessed with this turd. It’s gotten worse since he app converted to Islam, now he’s the pious and innocent man and his critics are the hypocrites or whatever.

    This is the first I’ve heard of this guy, or the incident. Based on the comments, I should consider myself lucky I suppose.

    Just hoping for a mountain of evidence for an easy conviction.

      Yea, I wasnt surprised when he got arrested, but when there was 0 evidence coming forth I was questioning what they where doing.

        In the ideal case you wouldn’t hear anything until a trial, it’s best that the police don’t leak in advance of discovery.

        That said, there were tapes?

    I’m sort of confused, I thought he already was? Or was he just in jail while on trial?

      He was detained while they investigate and a judge ruled 3 times to extend their detention for 30 days.

    I’ve never seen any of this guy’s content (and definitely have no interest to), so I’m gonna take the low road and remark that every picture I’ve seen of him, he’s wearing the expression of someone who just said “you too” to the waiter who said “enjoy your meal.”
