'The Predator' scandal: Jane Doe comes forward, thanks Olivia Munn
www.usatoday.com: Last week Olivia Munn spoke out, saying she flagged 20th Century Fox that an actor she worked with in "The Predator" is a registered sex offender who tried to entice a 14-year-old girl into a sexual relationship on the internet.

One of the things that shocks me the most about this scandal is how little I have heard about it. Usually when things like this happen, it's all I see on my news feed for a few days. However, the multiple articles posted on the green page are the first I'm reading of this. That all being said, this is a very upsetting case. The portion that talks about how Munn was shunned by her castmates and ditched for group interviews after she spoke up is very unsettling. After all that has happened in the entertainment industry over the course of the last year, it is deeply frustrating that someone could speak out about being forced to work with a registered sex offender and face judgment for that. I think it is especially brave of the victim to reveal her identity and speak out about the case as well, since it forces her into the public eye.
