    It may not be common knowledge to folks these days, but Penn was known to have a temper and got busted for assault a few times in the 80s. It's silly to ask him to weigh in, and to consider his opinion as worthy of respect.

    Therefore his petitition to compare his multiple assaults and will's slap is summarily denied.

    The man thinks the 33 days he spent in jail combined for all of his assaults gives him the right to be bitter? He's enjoyed more than his share of privilege. he could use a good hard slap in the face.

      Sean Penn is a truly vile person based on everything I’ve ever heard about him

      CW violence, mentions of SA

      Didn’t he literally tie up Madonna and beat and sexually assault her over a period of days? I don’t know if it was ever confirmed since Madonna supposedly tried to cover it up because it would be bad for her image

        Well, according to the Daily Beast (so grain of salt but...)

        CW: Just...lots, but also SA and violence and kidnapping

        Article

        According to a police report filed by Madonna, Penn scaled their Malibu home that afternoon, found Madonna alone in her bedroom, and told her that he owned her “lock, stock, and barrel.”

        According to reports, “When she told him she was leaving the house, he tried to bind her hands with an electric lamp and cord. Screaming and afraid, Madonna fled from the bedroom. What followed was a nine-hour ordeal which left her deeply shaken. Penn chased her into the living room, caught her and bound her to a chair with heavy twine. Then he threatened to cut off her hair.”

        He allegedly “smacked and roughed up” Madonna while she was tied to a chair, and then left for a few hours to buy more booze—leaving his then-wife bound and gagged—only to return and continue terrorizing her. He only agreed to untie her after she “agreed to perform a degrading sex act on him,” and then fled the house, got in her car, and raced to the sheriff’s office—eventually stumbling inside.
