I don't read it as having anything to do with him remaining on campus.@Kaks33, could you still respond to my question I posted here: https://www.illinoisloyalty.com/post/tsj-thread.33301/post-1990825
I'm genuinely confused by the statement, and I'm trying to figure out if that's your take, or what is actually happening. Thanks!

For that particular Certificate, you need to have stayed at an Aloft Hotel.
The complaint doesn't necessarily have the entirety of the investigation.The actual complaint has been released, I believe I saw it on Twitter. In my opinion, as a woman who believes women as a rule, there was not enough evidence there to have charged him with rape. Even if he is found to have done what is alleged (butt grabbing, and sticking his hand up her skirt), they should have at least investigated before moving on such serious charges. They didn't even question any witnesses (Justin Harmon, Hunter Dickinson, Lance McCullars, the grad assistant from Illinois). I'm not saying she's lying, but she may be mistaken. There's at least reasonable doubt, in my opinion.
Same fact situation for me but I stayed at a Motel 6. Haven't received anything.I practiced for 30 years in Illinois, gave up my license when I retired, BUT slept in a Holiday Inn last week. Lo and behold, I received a letter from the Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission today that I was reinstated with full privileges. You try to get out, but they just drag you back in!
Is that like "If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice."?I just want to add that I have nothing to add.
This 1000%!!! Could not agree more.No matter which perspective you hold, it seems the overlooked issue here is that the allegations should not have been publicized through formal charges without thoroughly examining the incident and its witnesses. All of this could have transpired without subjecting either the accuser or the accused to the scrutiny of public judgment.
You're reading the affidavit as someone interested in how strong the charges are and whether there is evidence that TJ is guilty of what he's been both accused and charged with, as are most on this thread. Most people that aren't invested in this case will read the affidavit and see an event that could happen, that sounds compelling, and will likely read the circumstantial "evidence" as telling a stronger story than it really does in terms documentary evidence.… Are we reading the same affidavit…? Or are you family and friends just assuming because he’s charged he’s guilty? Genuinely confused here, because the DA’s case looks beyond bad, lol.
So Illinois is fighting this?
Excellent addition.I just want to add that I have nothing to add.
Or just add it next to their username. stlrunner (not a lawyer)Everyone now needs to start every post by informing us whether or not they are a lawyer.
This is not good. Right?
What does this mean?
I had a professor give the very best explanation of circumstantial evidence and the defense/prosecutor relationship ever:You're reading the affidavit as someone interested in how strong the charges are and whether there is evidence that TJ is guilty of what he's been both accused and charged with, as are most on this thread. Most people that aren't invested in this case will read the affidavit and see an event that could happen, that sounds compelling, and will likely read the circumstantial "evidence" as telling a stronger story than it really does in terms documentary evidence.
There is a big difference between the story and the case. The story may be compelling while the case may be really bad. Unfortunately, most in the public will focus on the story at this point in the events. This is, presumably, exactly what the DA is counting on too.
What would "this" be? Inquiring voices are asking, and they are all in my head . . .This makes me so mad. Will go into more details at a later date
Assumption here is that as referenced in the tweet from Goodman the university is fighting the TRO that will substantially delay any chance of him returning? Should we have any confidence he’s going to return this year given the latest development?This makes me so mad. Will go into more details at a later date
