Glee star Mark Salling dead

Maybe but tbey had to have had some clue as to what he was into. I can’t imagine knowing and looking the other way

Why would you assume that they knew? I can’t imagine anyone expressing to their parents that this was something they were “into”.

I’m about the same age (36). I am married and haven’t lived with my parents since I was a teenager. I am certain that my parents know absolutely nothing about my intimate relations and certainly not my personal fantasies.

I read he created a corporation when he started on Glee. My guess is that all his assets are held by the corporation - no estate to speak of and the "victims" (in quotes because the govt chose 2 when charges were filed) will not be able to make a claim against the estate. And I wonder if they (or guardians) even know they were chosen as victims - or if the guardians are the ones who took pics/videos to begin with - so any payments would not benefit the children anyway.

Sad for his family. He was obviously deeply remorseful and felt hopeless.

For those who say prison would have meant a certain death for him - in federal prison, at least, it is against every rule for you to discuss "why" you are in, or why others are in.

Really do you think noone would know why he was there? Of course they would. One relative of an inmate would just have to relay the info - Hey you know that guy from Glee with the kiddie porn?

I don't think it would necessarily death but I am betting he would have been a really pretty wife to some Bubba.

I'm thinking people in federal prison are the rule-following type.

I'm not so sure that was obvious. I think this is a case of a very selfish suicide because he didn't want to deal with the consequence of his actions, NOT because he couldn't live with what he had done. That sicko would still be doing it if he didn't get caught.

A) He was not obviously deeply remorseful. He was a predator, plain and simple.

B) New guy comes into prison "Hey, I know you, you're that guy from glee. You are a child predator. I saw it on the news" He wouldn't have had to admit it to anyone, but he was so high profile, it wouldn't have remained a secret long.
