OK. But that's not the case. Stop injecting hypotheticals into the discussion.
Allan Myers (V2) is on record as saying nothing happened in the shower. Of course, once he got an attorney (the same attorney as NINE other victims) along with a memory repression expert, he filed and then settled w/ PSU.
Why not? Free money. His justification was that abuse took place AFTER 2001 - away from campus. And still the University signed the check - even though the OAG wanted nothing to do with him because he (at the time) contradicted their case.
No. If I want to make an observation based on a hypothetical situation, you can bet I will do so... and without asking your permission first.
My point is, sometimes picking up the ball bat is exactly what ethics require us to do.
