Same same same, I'm dying of curiosity over what could have been THAT bad. My guess is that he somehow threatened a minor, it's the only thing I could see the courts taking seriously. Thinking of how that may have happened, maybe he was sending stuff out to his victim's family and found a sister's name and sent out a blind threat, not knowing she was underaged or something like that.
So I was thinking about that and I'm wondering if the whole "I'll ruin her career and she'll be broke and dependent on me" is less about misogyny (not that he isn't a misogynist, or that a level of it isn't involved still) and more about his narcissism.
Russ has a very rose coloured view of his own life and has zero theory of mind, so I'm thinking it's possible it doesn't even cross his mind that people don't live paycheque to paycheque and are financially ruined when they're fired because that's his exact reality.
I could very easily see him thinking (if he does think about) that since his electricity bill is let's say, 15% of his total monthly income that Taylor's is also 15% of hers, If his rent is 75% hers is too etc etc
It's obviously a stupid way to think, but it kind of makes sense with the shit he spouts.
