When you see Ronan Farrow, it is impossible not to believe that he is Frank Sinatra's son. He has also been involved in calling out Woody Allen (and the Hollywood community for supporting him) in regard to Allen's "alleged" sexual abuse of a young girl adopted by Mia and Woody. The activity was actually witnessed by a babysitter/nanny taking care of the children.

Sadly, It comes to mind that this could be very dangerous activity for Ronan Farrow.

There was babysitter testimony for and against in the Woody Allen case.

And of course that case was investigated at the time.

As I recall it -- and it was TEXT so imagine it was stories published in Vanity Fair -- the babysitter walked into a room where Allen was alone with the young girl of about 3 years old and Allen had his face in her lap. I should probably try to find the story again. Also, believe it was either that baby sitter or another who took care of the children who was involved in another incident where they had trouble locating Allen and the young girl... and the baby sitter found Allen had taken her up into a very dark partial attic. I don't recall anything by a babysitter who testified for Allen. Can you go over your memory of it -- or give a link?

The case has never been reconciled and while there was some kind of input from ... was it Yale ... it seemed suspicious.

Allen also at the very same time was involved with Mia's older daughter who was only 16 or even younger at the time ... and Mia found pictures of her in Allen's apartment where she had posed naked to be photographed by Allen. Ultimately, he married the daughter.

So, Mia wasn't only finding out about the 3 year old daughter being molested by Allen, she was also finding out that he had been grooming the other older adopted daughter.

It's been a lasting marriage which I'm sure Woody is very careful about keeping going as that young women could probably tell us a lot about Woody's and his relationships with the children in the family, including herself.

At this point, I've forgotten many of the details and the names ... and will try to find the source again.

I linked to news article from when it happened

Soon-Yi Previn was 20 when the affair was discovered. She wasn't groomed. She wanted to get away from Mia.

A team of doctors and trained social workers from Yale's sex abuse clinic examined Dylan and concluded no abuse at all occurred. This is why he was never charged with a crime.

This is a very good timeline of events.

Are -- It will be a while before I can check into the Vanity Fair article and what Dylan herself has said about what happened at that time. And old reports of what happened in regard to Mia's discovery and what babysitters actually said.

1990: Farrow and Allen engage Dr. Susan Coates, a child psychologist in New York, who will later testify in a custody hearing that Satchel (now Ronan) was alienated from Allen and that the parents’ relationship was “in considerable trouble.” Coates also evaluates Dylan, whom she finds to be “taken over by fantasy” when asked to describe even a tree. Coates counsels Allen about his relative indifference to Satchel as compared with Dylan, 5, upon whom he lavishes attention. Of the latter relationship, Coates will testify, “I did not see it as sexual, but I saw it as inappropriately intense because it excluded everybody else, and it placed a demand on a child for a kind of acknowledgment that I felt should not be placed on a child.”

December 17, 1991: With Farrow’s willing consent, Allen formally adopts Moses Amadeus Farrow and Dylan Farrow.

January 1992: Mia Farrow finds intimate Polaroids of her (adopted) daughter Soon-Yi Previn, age 20, under a box of tissues on the mantle in Allen’s Manhattan apartment. After confronting Soon-Yi and confirming the affair, she tells all but the youngest children what she has learned.

Also as I begin to recall various parts of the story --

Even though Allen was accused of grooming and molesting Soon-Yi, the way he allegedly did with adopted daughter Dylan Farrow, both he and Soon-Yi have denied the accusation.

Actually, as I recall it, Moses had noticed Woody's over-attentiveness to Soon-Yi and was concerned that Soon-Yi wasn't capable of understanding or defending herself.

However, whether Soon-Yi was part time at school, she was still technically living in the home Mia Farrow provided for all of her children. She was still Soon-Yi's Mother. And certainly Soon-Yi was aware that Mia and Woody had an on going relationship for a 12 year period. Soon-Yi had been adopted when she was 7-8 years old by Mia and then husband Previn. But she would have been at home most of the time of that 12 year period when Mia and Previn wee involved.
