   The lawsuit was against his employer, not against an accuser.  Why would that   
   "intimidate" accusers from coming forward.   
   It had the opposite effect: everyone wanted a piece of Ghomeshi and their own   
   day in the limelight.

   His plan was to force the issue into a courtroom, ya dumb rabbit . . . . That's   
   where he plans to prove that his employer used PRIVATE information he'd shared   
   with them to in fact, use against him.  Even though it involved an issue not   
   related to his job or job site.

   Too bad they didn't come forward until 10 years after the fact, eh, 'Smith'.  A   
   whole lot of "credibility" gets lost over so many years.
