You have to remember that 99 percent of what the
tabloids print is fiction. Consider:
"Elvis spotted in alien ship"
The type of stories that they
frequently run.

The *kidnapping* of a TV star occurred sometime last year and with

the

exception of a tabloid story (which are notoriously unreliable), the
incident is only now becoming public? I find this incredible.

Either

Paramount has the awesome power it takes to control the news media

and

prevent the dissemination of information, or Star Trek has reached

its

market saturation point and the mainstream press just doesn't

consider

them newsworthy anymore.

Oh absolutely. The tabloids print 99% trash. I won't believe the
details of this borrible story until I read it from a reputable
source.

Nana did get raped. She was followed home after filming and abducted. After driving around for a while, they took her back home and raped her. She did an event with Alexander Siddig and Patricia Tallman in early October this year called The Bardo to talk
about it. Very hard to hear. Most of us watching via Zoom were in tears. She talked about things that Alexander didn't even know, so I can only imagine how hard it is for her to talk about still. I type this as I'm watching Heart of Stone

Gates McFadden just did a podcast with Nana Visitor. In it she talks about her kidnapping and rape. Someone followed her home and put a gun to her head. She ran, but they shot at her and captured her. They bound her and took her somewhere. She was raped
all night and overhead them talk about where they were going to dump the body. In the morning they put the gun back to her head told her to take them back to her house. She said telling them was what gave her the most shame because her baby was at the
house. They got to the house and bound her nanny and infant. They rummaged through her house and even played with her dogs. She said it wasn't the rape that gave her PTSD, it was the shame of bringing them into her home and her baby. Eventually the two
men where caught and given multiple life sentences. She said it was the kidnapping more than anything that led to the long sentencing. All of this comes straight from Nana in the podcast. It's called InvestaGates.

This is absolutely terrifying. I had never heard about this but it's not surprising considering how absolutely terrible it is.

This is why you take your gun with you.

Also why you have a tiled foyer that is easy to hose down...

As they say in TX... hanging is too good for some folk.

I had not heard this story before but OMG as someone who plays far too
much Star Trek Timelines I have to say she's my favorite actor in the
show canon. Especially her wide variety of holodeck roles.
