In more than a month the time has come: then the big Marco Borsato process starts. The singer is already busy with it, because according to Bram Moszkowicz he hopes for a preferred treatment. “Back entrance!”
Marco Borsato has been silent for four years about the abuse he is being accused of, and with that he has a very different strategy than Danny de Munk did at the time. That years of silence increases curiosity: is he actually guilty of fornication of the then minor Asmara T.? Or does he have a completely different story?
A-Category
In more than a month, the whole of the Netherlands will learn, because then the big Borsato process in Utrecht will begin. “I am looking forward to it, especially because Marco has not been saying anything about it for four years. He has to come up with a story how this works and I think everyone is curious about that, yes, me too,” says Ad-Journalist Victor Schildkamp.
He continues in Shownieuws: “This is the A-category. Everyone is seriously taking a serious medium here, and even a few others, just be there. There will also be video rooms, so not everyone of the press can be there, I think. But even then you can follow it. I am not worried about that. We are in the front row.”
Back entrance
Marco is not at all waiting for whole battalions journalists who try to ask him the shirt. We still hear the Aran Bade calling at the Ali B process: “Good morning, do you find yourself a sexual predator?”
Marco naturally wants to prevent that kind of moments, says Bram Moszkowicz at the desk of the show section. “I don’t think Marco – but that is my estimate – will come through the front door.”
Reliable source
Why does Bram think that? “I think he has asked him to come in through a different entrance. I have heard that, but I don’t know if that is true. I have a reasonably reliable source.”
Ali also went into the corridors during the breaks to talk to the press. Will Marco do that too? “He didn’t say anything for four years, so I don’t expect him to call something in the corridors. I would certainly not advise him as a lawyer.”
Defense
Bram finds the tactic to be silent for four years unwise, but now that he has been silent for so long, Marco is better off holding on, he says. “I had brought out something because you have to go into defense, I think.”
What would he advise Marco for the upcoming process? “I would go inside through a back entrance if I were him and I would be very well prepared for the session as a lawyer, because he gets questions and it is such a criminal offense that you are supposed to answer that.”
