Detained in Romania, Tate brothers keep delaying court case
Detained in Romania, Tate brothers keep delaying court case
Andrew and Tristan Tate have been under investigation for the rape and abuse of women for years. But they still haven't faced justice.
Summary
Andrew and Tristan Tate face charges in Romania for human trafficking, rape, and abuse, yet their trial has been repeatedly delayed using legal tactics to hold up proceedings.
The Tates, notorious for misogynistic and far-right views on social media, allegedly exploited women through the “lover boy” method, in which men pretend to be caring boyfriends before forcing their victims into prostitution as well as appearing in online sex channels and porn films.
Despite a 2024 court decision to proceed with a criminal trial, proceedings have stalled. Romania’s justice system, criticized for leniency toward traffickers, further complicates justice.
The Tates remain publicly popular, with Andrew even receiving applause at a Romanian festival amid these allegations.
You're viewing a single thread.
They learned from our local high-profile crooks that if you can delay proceeding for a couple years, the process ends. Or if you know people that know people you might get lucky and a judge retires, in which case the whole thing starts from scratch. Meantime they can continue to build their public image and pick fights with kermit or whoever on twitter. have very little hope that they will be prosecuted "to the full extent of the law".
Why did so many people upvote that?
The world revolves around the sun homie, not America...
Hell, the big reason they got arrested, is they kept openly saying to a global audience "we came here because with a little money there's no consequences".
Which pisses off the corrupt justice system and the people who benefit from it.
They fucked up a nice situation a lot of dangerous people benefit from, but you're clearly stuck in your own world view if you honestly think:

Just fucking wild man
Not sure what you're fighting me about - I can tell you for a fact that we had local cronies ( in Cluj or Constanta for example ) get away scot-free after taking people's advance payments on new apartment complexes, never building anything and just delaying proceedings until the trial closed. Or politicians' sons that got away with vehicular manslaughter and DUIs simply because of influence. Now I don't know how much influence the tates have, but at the very least they could've hired competent local attorneys that know how to game the system. And the justice system here is laughably corrupt.

Yeah, we US Americans know. We're despairing that our justice system has finally failed after decades of active undermining be the right wing to install unqualified and ideological judges instead of people interested in a rule of law.
The delay delay delay tactics mostly work here if you have the money and connections for it.
I'm hopefully that Romania actually uses this case to prove their nation has a functional legal system when it counts, especially with such a high profile case. These brothers publicly derided, insulted, ignored, and put down Romania to their millions of followers. Go get them and make them pay for crimes and the insults. Show us all that Romania will enforce the law when it counts because the US barely is.
