Dam a 15 year old has proof from 20 years ago who later did porn ?
That charge may not stick. I don’t know what the statute of limitations for child molestation and rape are in California but I would be surprised if it is 16 years. Other charges may be more recent and therefore able to be tried in court. If Ron Jeremy is convicted of even one of these charges he is facing the rest of his short life in prison getting nightly “bubba” treatments where he gets a nightly taste of his own medicine from some big Crip, Blood or Latin King gang banger.
Dude Tom Byron threw him under the bus.
Added 20 ” NEW” charges based on old accusations. Starting to think the case is falling apart already. The whole world is watching this and who wants to have this backfire now like the McMartin case. Good News for LA county, Ron won’t live long enough with so many medical complications to make it to trial. To name a few issues … Dementia, narcolepsy, Alzheimer’s, many heart surgeries, and mental illness to ride it out to trial.

Calling Tom Byron his friend seems a stretch, based on all the things Byron has said about Jeremy over the years. But who the hell knows what their relationship really is or was.
Incidentally, I ran into RJ two years ago and was astonished how bad he looked at the (then) age of 65. Peter North is only 4 years younger.
