Here we go! The children who were abused are starting to speak out. Alexander Polinsky is tweeting about his experiences on the set of CHARLES IN CHARGE.
He's reaching out to Scott Baio. Scott was a cast mate. Scott was also targeted by Erin Moran of HAPPY DAYS as someone she wanted to talk to. What did Scott witness? Think we'd all like to know.

For 30 years I’ve held in the embarrassment and shame of being abused daily on the set of Charles in Charge. I had to watch other children be abused as well. It was devastating, destroyed me personally and made me an angry person for many years. I’m not embarrassed anymore. RT!

I‘m trying to contact former castmate @ScottBaio and I am having no luck. I want to speak with him about the abuse I suffered and witnessed on the set of Charles in Charge. Physical, mental, verbal & sexual abuse. Please retweet this with maximum effort.

My abuser thought he was above the law, above morality and beyond judgment. To the quiet ones, the shy ones, the different, the unique ones, and you too. Fuck the pedos, the abusers and the sleazy womanizers... We are in charge now.

Libs gonna jump on this cause its Trump lovin' Scott Biao

Yes, but Polinsky is not alleging Baio was culpable or part of the abuse. He said he was reaching out ...
It's the same thing Moran did, and Baio did speak with her. He's one of the few that remained open and got blasted because he didn't do enough. I'm waiting for other names to come out re: Happy Days. There are at least three people from that show that are on my radar -- BIG TIME!!!
But you're right ... Baio is again going to get hammered because he's the Trump supporter. While everyone should be going after the abusers, they'll go after Scott.

Great thread, keep tossing candles in that dark pit that is Happy Days to see if you spook out a bunch of demons that wove huge webs throughout Hollywood.
What 3 names were ya thinkin? Howard, Winkler and Most?
migratorypatterns ago
Just found where Winkler did defend Kevin Clash after he was fired for allegedly sexually abusing teen.

Exactly.
The names I was thinking -- and there's absolutely no proof to suggest these names are in any way connected to abuse in any form (gotta be careful not to accuse innocent people) -- are: Henry Winkler, Ron Howard, and Gary Marshall. They would have had the most access to Erin Moran and be high enough on the food chain to be able to implement abuse. And Winkler's comments/tweets to Moran, especially on her passing:
Creepy or is just me? And, naturally, he didn't attend the funeral. TOO BUSY?!!!! Yeah, right! Too busy to take five minutes out of that hectic schedule he must have.

Another childrens book with a title/theme that has a possible double meaning..... butts....?
migratorypatterns ago
Right!

Garry Marshall 100% guaranteed.
Happy Days, Princess Diaries, Pretty Woman,.,.all the classics.

Well, the other reason is his sister is way overrated and given directorial credits ala Angelina Jolie. When someone talentless gets that kind of opportunity, you can bet something is behind it because she sure didn't earn it. Come to think of it, didn't she direct Tom Hanks? He was just accused of the same thing.
Birds of a feather.

Sink the Howard Ship! He is featured in that video with Tom Hanks, Toddlers and Tiaras. It is a Hiding in Plain Sight Message. Time to Take These Suckers Down. These are people that lied to us for decades. Where these people that partied out in the open and took drugs and got arrested for DUIs? No. They paraded around with Goody Two Shoes Families. Opie of All Things! $tring Them Up.

Oh, thanks for posting it. I watched it again last night. Not wanting to after seeing it at least 10 times, months ago. I have known about this pervert and Kimmel and Howard since then. People need to watch this for it will solidify any thoughts you may have that this is just something that warrants a slap on the wrist. The woman that accused him is a victim of SRA. I am hoping that others will come forward, for I am sure they are out there. Hanks has people feelers out there, we can suppose, ready to buy them off. Or frighten them into silence. These pedos are extremely manipulative and can be violent at times. Let's hope this take down is going to spread.
