George Clooney to be called as witnesses in sex trial involving Berlusconi

Berlusconi's trial has become a cause célèbre is generating so much controversy. George has already denied attending the Bunga Bunga parties, though admitted viewing an ornate bed Putin gave Berlusconi as a gift.
That revelation could suggest more & may not seem so innocent to some. Ambiguous connotations that may be interpreted as "partying in a bedroom" by the media. Those in particular who sensationalized the testicle-lifting joke.

So, if there's any truth in George accepting to testify as a witness, it could be to clear any speculation about his own participation.

It sounds as if the court has decided it will not compel him (and others on the witness list) to testify. I believe Italian courts have the power to subpoena his testimony if they choose to do so.

Lesson learned: always watch your back when you are around Silvio Berlusconi, because you never know when he will stab it.

right!
