I don't think there's much else to be said about this extraordinarily dismaying story, but I think this is the best and most succinct take I've seen about the whole thing:
https://twitter.com/davelevitan/status/1296890044867846145It's clear that Coleman does not sincerely understand that he's done some truly terrible things. It's clear, from the comments he made during his campaign (about Republicans getting COVID and the like), that he is generally incapable of thinking before he speaks. I think it's only reasonable to want him far, far away from any position of power and influence.
Sure, it's possible that that one day he will be a mature, thoughtful adult who has genuine remorse for his past, and has worked to be a better human being. Like anyone else this young, society should allow him the chance to grow and change. But it's exceedingly obvious he's nowhere close to becoming that person yet.
