In late July of 2003, another entertainer was charged with assault, sexual assault at that. The alleged assault took place on June 30, at the Lodge and Spa in Cordillera, Colorado. Multitudes upon multitudes of opinions have been flooding the airwaves, radio waves, and newspaper racks of Mr. Bryant's position, every since.
