My issue with these out-of-court settlements is that somebody has sacrificed justice for cash.
I had the same misgivings when I heard that some parents had been paid money by Michael Jackson for alleged offences against their children. It may benefit them financially, but it does not prevent the perpetrator from repeating the offence. And in the case of potential child abuse, that does not sit right with me at all.
Whether Andy did or didn't do this, well, it didn't really look that good for him beforehand, and it looks like a case will come to court. Unless, of course, there's someone else in the background with more revelations...................
I think we will see very little of him in the public life now, but of course he'll still get his money from the public purse.
