    Not defending him in any way, but has there been more proof released? Last I saw he was investigated by authorities and there wasn’t enough evidence to prove a criminal case. And I get not enough to prove a criminal case doesn’t mean he didn’t do it, but it also means there isn’t much evidence. Again, not defending him. This kind of behavior is gross and unacceptable.

      He was investigated by the New Zealand authorities. What has happened with the other women has not been investigated as far as I know.

      The New Zealand case became a civil lawsuit.

      With the UK woman who accused him of pressuring her to give him oral when she could no longer pay her rent, Gaiman has sued her for breaking a nondisclosure agreement.

      I’m not sure what has happened with the other women. Gaiman’s own statements on it have not endeared him to people.

        Thank you for the updated information. Absolutely abhorrent behavior. I Google’d around a bit myself but most of the articles focused more on his TV show cancellations…
