Kobe Bryant
After being cleared of criminal and civil charges in a 2004 sexual assault case in Colorado, Kobe Bryant remade his image and went on to continue what is likely a hall of fame career. The woman who accused him of rape in 2003 refused to testify and agreed to an out of court settlement with Bryant.

Roman Polanski
If you want to get an insight into how much of a joke the justice system can be, consider the fact that Roman Polanski pled guilty to unlawful sex with a 13-year-old way back in 1977, yet the acclaimed director remains free.

Michael Jackson
The King of Pop never really recovered from the 2005 charges of child molestation despite being cleared of any and all wrongdoing. The 14-week trial uncovered uncomfortable but not unlawful details such as holding hands and sharing beds with children.

Cee Lo
The Los Angeles District Attorney ultimately rejected sexual assault charges against Cee Lo in 2013, but not before the rapper and singer was knee-deep in a public relations nightmare that saw him fire off some rapey tweets.

Woody Allen
Much like Michael Jackson, Woody Allen dodged any criminal or civil charges based on the accusations of sexually assaulting a minor. But the details of Dylan Farrow’s various court battles with Allen are particularly disturbing.
