I have just read a Chris Langham interview in The Guardian, here.
I was quick to attack Langham, when the news of criminal charges went public, but this was the result of a great deal of disappointment. I should have kept my powder dry. Thankfully some of my wiser readers were quick to question my youthful moral self-righteousness.
Clearly Langham is a pitiable character, who had a difficult childhood, and has suffered many addictions in his adult life. I’m not making excuses, downloading child porn (which Langham is alleged to have done), is contemptible as it provides a demand for a deeply wicked act. But I’m not sure collectively [the media] destroying the career of an actor is the best response.
If he’s guilty he should be punished, but redemption, and forgiveness, starts here.

The only place to start - but don’t expect the Establishment Media (who have ‘punished’ and destroyed so many lives) to publicize your redemptive forgiveness.
We’ll see, but I’m sure you’re right.
