Why did the kid go back three years in a row?
You’re twelve years old, and first were ‘groomed’ with all sorts of special favors and attention. Then one night, your ‘friend’ closes the deal by shoving his d!ck up your a@@ and cuming in it. More special favors and attention. You’re in shock about what happened last night, and have nobody to talk to about it. So you don’t talk to anyone, and it continues, both the grooming and the abuse, and you learn things about sex that are utterly bewildering and make you feel ashamed and frightened. Your dad picks you up from the camp. “Did you have a good time, son?” You nod and try to smile. Next year, you’re back, secretly dreading it, but resigned, and resolved to keep this a secret.
He alleges there was a cover-up, so the secret gets out somehow, at least among the staff, and covered up, allegedly with Namath’s participation per the amended complaint of 2021. Assuming it’s true: Maybe you’re relieved at the time that there’s a cover-up. You don’t want your friends to know. They’ll start calling you ‘faggot’. How will this play with girls, in whom you’re now interested, if they know you were somebody’s butt boy, maybe even put it in your mouth. You grow up and get married. You don’t tell your new bride about this. She might never know. You don’t tell your children as they pass through puberty. It takes years to get over these things and talk about it.
Some never do. At some point, he did. Now he’s gunning for Namath, who’s 80 and no billionaire. I’m inclined to at least hear the case, and as I’ve mentioned, OJ and others have turned me off to celebrities.
