I remember when he was in the discord writing paragraphs about the tablet, that my advice was to step away from the keyboard, stop posting, and if he has truly been wronged to go to the police - and that as a neutral observer from the outside in, it was just a tablet, not even remotely worth all of this nonsense over
now I wonder how this situation would pan out if he actually took that advice, put his head down, actually disappear like he claims to want to do and leave the woman alone
...though if he had gone to the police, they might have had a head-start in putting a case against him, but I digress. I would say it's still not too late to put his head down and disappear, but it seems to me like he desperately wants to keep talking, and even the need to "clear the air" about the tablet seems like the wrong thing to hyperfixate over when there are plenty of other things that should have been addressed instead.
Again, as a neutral observer from the outside in, there were many opportunities to mitigate the outcome, but each and every one of them were rejected. Here's hoping he actually learns from this over the long term, and that the affected is able to find peace away from him.
