Bram Moszkowicz believes that celebrities who misbehave should receive a reduced sentence if they suffer a heart attack as a result of the fuss, like Marc Overmars. “You have to take that into account.”
For a moment, Marc Overmars seemed to get away with his transgressive behavior at Ajax unpunished, because he was able to start working at Royal Antwerp FC shortly after his departure. But yesterday FIFA decided to ban him worldwide for one year. And that is what the opinions at the desk are Show news divided over.
Enough punishment
Presenter Dyantha Brooks believes that we should now leave Overmars alone. “Am I the only one who thought: hasn’t he just been punished already?”
Sandra Schuurhof, who is also at the desk, is shocked by this. “No, I didn’t have that at all. He has not been punished. He did something and a month later…”
Dyantha: “Sent apps, huh?”
D*ckpics
Sandra thinks that Dyantha is trivializing it. “Well, not just texts, just d*ck pics and everything. He imposed himself…”
Dyantha: “They can also be done via the app.”
Sandra: “Yes. To female staff who did not like that. In a male society, those women had a very difficult time there.”
Private boss Evert Santegoeds: “I find it funny that you say: ‘Hasn’t he been punished enough already?’”
Not in thanks
Dyantha jumps just like her father-in-law Erik de Vlieger in the breach for Marc: “Of course he had to explain it at home, he lost his great job at Ajax, Ajax was punished and now he is not allowed to work at Royal Antwerp. Shouldn’t someone be able to pick up life again at some point?”
Fallen criminal lawyer Bram Moszkowicz: “I can follow Dyantha and, as a woman, I find it special.”
Dyantha: “I may not be appreciated for that.”
Heart attack
Sandra reacts in surprise. “But he hasn’t been punished at all, because he left one job for another within a month. He simply made women’s lives impossible for a long time and perhaps even destroyed them.”
Bram: “On the other hand, he also had a major heart attack.”
Sandra does not understand what that has to do with the punishment: “Yes, but that is separate from whether he should be punished or not.”
Bram: “No, I don’t think so. No.”
‘Not even!’
Bram believes that a heart attack is considered a kind of ‘get out of jail free‘-card. “I think if someone has had a serious heart attack like he did, you should take that into account when sentencing.”
Heart attack = reduced sentence?! Sandra can’t believe it: “Well, I really don’t agree with you.”
Bram: “That’s not necessary.”
Frits Huffnagel bewildered: “Why?!”
Bram: “Because I think that is also a form… Although from the outside, but he has had his share of misery at the moment, I think.”
