The real news on the Thomas Ravenel bullshit.
Here is what my source told me. Dawn doesn’t have much money for attorneys. She was largely unrepresented in the criminal matter against TR, and while she’s not pleased with the outcome, she’s certainly isn’t surprised. The prosecutors were theoretically supposed to be in her corner, but they had a curious shift several weeks ago and began to strongly encourage the plea deal. Dawn ultimately agreed not to oppose the deal, with the single caveat that TR would admit to the facts underlying her allegations. (Hence, his so-called apology for trying to kiss her and grabbing her arm in the process… It’s not a full admission, but it’s certainly a major departure from his original position that he’d be attracted to someone like her.)
The prosecutors also allegedly considered certain factors that could weaken the case against TR, including, most notably, the proposed testimony of an opportunistic c*nt (hereafter, “OC”), who gained her entry into reality-TV gossip circles by outing TR for allegedly sexually assaulting her own mother, yet was curiously willing to suddenly testify in favor of her mother’s alleged abuser against Dawn.
OC claimed that Dawn’s accounts of the attack to her differed significantly from the allegations in the police report against TR, because she never described a “rape” when recounting the details of the attack. There’s a very good reason why Dawn wouldn’t describe TR’s attack as a typical “rape,” which is that the SC Criminal Code defines second-degree rape as forcible penetration with any object, including fingers, and many people wouldn’t consider his actions [which, if true, were certainly a sexual assault] as “rape.”
Regardless, It’s clearly the role of the prosecutor – and not Dawn – to determine what charges to levy against a defendant. It’s not as if Dawn browses through menu of criminal charges and ordered which ones and wanted the State of South Carolina to charge TR with.
Nevertheless, OC allegedly desperately needed to save her own ass after she inadvertently exposed her mother to civil liability when she outed Thomas, so she agreed to testify in favor of TR. While there was plenty of evidence establishing that Dawn’s recollection of the attack to OC was entirely consistent with the allegations in the police report, it was clear that TR had succeeded not only in muddying the waters, but was going to extraordinary lengths to do so (including by allegedly hiring a 24/7 PI to monitor his victim’s every move).
As a result, the individuals who were meant to protect Dawn ultimately cowered to external pressures generated by the TR money/propaganda machine, and she had little choice but to agree. It’s a damn shame, but certainly not a surprise.
Dawn settled her case with TR. According to the terms of the settlement, he has agreed to donate $80,000 to the organization People Against Rape (PAR), a nonprofit organization for sexual assault survivors, in her name. She doesn’t want, or receive, a penny of the settlement amount.
And on that note. I’m going to throw up now. I’m shattered. And I can’t imagine how Dawn feels.
Apologies for what I’m about to post, Dirty, Filthy C***t bag. Rot in hell TDouche!
I second that!
I’m sorry, it’s probably lies, but this makes me want to throw up in my mouth, and that’d be bad😫
I have to believe all of this? The truth, again is not justice. I still am so very proud of Dawn. It makes me ill too Miss Tamara. Not a good day.
This makes me want to hurl! This POS will never stop. He thinks he’s above the law because his family money keeps buying his way out. I pray he gets his comeuppance one day.
He will – when he meets the ultimate Judge in the hereafter.
Throwing up after reading this. What a messed up world that such a POS gets to do it again since he can.
This makes me feel deeply sad. Me too has changed nothing. I can’t even begin to imagine how dawn feels. This means he’ll also continue to have unfettered access to those children. The world is not a good place.
Poor Dawn! She was violated and nothing happened to TRav. What a world we live in today… So very sad.
I give up. Probably won’t have to register as a sex offender, won’t suffer at all. Women of SC and the entire world are less safe today.
I am pissed he can write the $80,000 off on taxes as he is donating to charity. God sees him. Nanny Dawn deserves better.
I hope his dick develops a flesh-eating disease that cannot be cured by God or anybody.
STAT…. thanks in advance 😅
👏👏👏👏👏👏 GREAT comment! May he later rot in hell after YEARS of no woman (or man) touching him in a sexual or loving manner!
How does the court know the truth of OC’s account without recorded collaboration? Thomas goes to jail for snorting some white powder and gets next to nothing for assaulting a human being? I guess the drug embarrassed the Good Ol’ Boys, but sexual assault is part of the tradition. Pappy Rav must be so proud of his boy. Some 18-year-old kid has consensual (but not by law) sex with his almost-18 girlfriend and has a sex-crime jacket that follows him throughout his life. And TRav can attack with impunity. Disgusting. Shameful. No surprise. I hope, that like OJ, just because he beat the rap, the GOOD LIFE doesn’t go on as before. I wonder who among the cast will hang out with him now that the trial is over.
Shep.
And the Dolphin. But she never stopped.
With every fiber of my being, I hope when he dies he is repeatedly and constantly raped by a 500 lb ugly man or woman with oozing puss sores on their face and body. There. I said it and I don’t regret it.
I have faith that both Thomas and the OC will get what they deserve in the end. If not in this life then after. We all know if Thomas felt he could prove any of the allegations against Patricia and Kathryn orchestrating this then he NEVER would of taken a plea. If nothing more to serve his own giant ego, and he had plenty of resources to fight this tooth and nail. He took a guilty plea because he is guilty and we all know it. May they both rot………
Well said.
So is Thomas going to take the kids back from Kathryn now? Didn’t she have them 1/2 the time but now he has them more often. I know her car wrecks might be held against her. Wow. Dawn will have to be an even stronger woman now. She and Kathryn and those children have been abandoned by justice.
I have a feeling TRav is shunned by many in Chucktown. I certainly wouldn’t want anything to do with him. Wouldn’t do business with him.
Poor Dawn. I wonder if she had any sort of advocate, or if resources like that are scarce in the south? Justice really wasn’t served AT ALL. I hope she can take a small amount of solace in knowing that people all over social media know the truth, support her, and are absolutely disgusted with Thomas and this outcome.
Ten years ago I would have said I was gutted by this disclosure but these days I just stay gutted all the time. It makes me want to become a recluse who only wanders outside to throat punch all the people who deserve to be throat punched.
Stay strong, Nanny Dawn.
And please don’t let this affect Kathryn or the children.
Well, if there is a silver plated lining, it’s that eventually, what Thomas pled to will eventually be leaked. He actually admitted to more than what was stated in open court, alledgedly, And that shit site who has gone after Dawn and the other victims will face some liability…
Thank you for this information. I am still livid. The mind boggles that he got away with it again.
Thank you for always keeping it real!
Are you saying the shit site case is still continuing forward?
Not from me. But after these are all done, they can have a better time with the defamation cases they have against the shit site. I just ignore them and to be honest, I kind of forgot they were there. But others have not.
Thanks. I will be keeping watch for J Day!
I would think the “more” that he admitted to could be useful to Kathryn in the custody case. Of course the custody case is in Charleston too, so…
I HOPE/PRAY something very very bad will eventually happen to this all time POS !!!
The OC and TCrap are cut from the same narcissistic, sociopathic, trashy piece of lingerie. Hell is coming for both of them and I hope OC gets dragged for all the trouble she’s caused.
Wow, justice denied AGAIN. Those poor children with this POS “father” and I use the term “father” very lightly. I hope he rots in hell, but while he’s still living, I hope someday he runs into the wrong man, who will beat the living crap out of him and will show him ZERO mercy, which is what he does to every woman he encounters, with the exception of his psycho counterpart from Cali, the alleged “escort disguided as a nurse.” I think I’ll join you all in a hurling right now. This just really makes me sick.
“disguised” not the misspeling above – my bad. It is hard not to have typos when you want to punch the whole good ole boys of Charleston SC in their respective faces.
Just think what he has done to the mother of his children who had the audacity to want to custody.
This makes me so angry! I knew he’d weasel his way out of this somehow. It’s like Dawn was raped all over again! This “Sperm donor” should NOT be aloud to be around those children unsupervised!! He’s unfit to to be a father to ANYONE!
Hell is too good for TR and the minions who cower before him.
That f*cking asshole! Now I’m going to throw up. I’m disgusted! Thanks for telling us the truth TT you know other sites glorify that man whore. Please don’t send me to the WLS for that.
And Cam probably called to congratulate him.
Gag. Probably. Shep and Thomas probably went out and and had their way with idiot “fans” to celebrate.
Along with JD and Doctor Rufie..
Gross. I can picture their sweaty red faces leering at all the young girls.
Just looking at his dopey mug makes me want to hurl. Jug-eared hillbilly. Don’t worry, though. He’ll mess with the wrong person one day and it will not end well for him.
Bravo.com has a slideshow that was trending today of his new house. I wondered what the about face was…
Has anyone ever told you that you would make a damn fine attorney? I’m sure they have-
What happens if he doesn’t donate the $80,000?
What about the bravo/haymaker lawsuit?
