“I don't have a dog in this fight, but it seems to me to be libelous for Listal to allow Barker to be tagged with "rapist" and "pedophile" considering that he was never even charged with either crime. Cheryl Crane's claims (not made in court, but rather in a "tell-all" book about her mother, Lana Turner) are the only source for this; not even her mother believed her.
I would suggest that these be removed.”
