Sadly, there's too much money at stake for the cheating to be of any consequence.

I'm seeing this as a final moral failing of society. If Jensen gets through this, as he will, it means that character doesn't matter.

Surely it takes character to get through it? It takes character to admit to human failings and weaknesses, especially when it’s extremely publicly. It’s not a mark of character to collapse and disappear out of contrition under such circumstances. Poor character would say “it never happened and I don’t even care anyway if it did or what you think”.
