A call to his lawyer wasn't immediately returned Friday. Police didn't say how old the girl is now.

A college professor. Want to bet he's a big time democrat?

Maybe he can get a job with Obama's safe schools czar.

He can talk to Roman Polanski and his legal team. I think they would have lots to talk about, regarding how to evade legal trouble for this sort of thing.

I think they should allow Professors to marry.

That's kind of like betting that the sun sets in the West.

First we will have to ask the bright minds on The View if it was actually “rape” rape.

Yep, it’s popular for phys. ed. majors, but I am surprised it grew to 7200 students. The last time I looked it was about 4K.

Yep, let’s ask Whoopi Goldberg about “rape rape”. Yep, we’re supposed to be sympathetic to a Hollywood idiot/felon like Polanski, since he’s been restricted to living his exalted life in Europe. He’s never been able to return to ground zero of the Hollywood life, and hasn’t been able to be feted by the other Hollywood idiots at Oscar awards shows since he is subject to arrest and prosecution if he returns to America. We’re supposed to feel sorry for him after he does unspeakable things to a 13 year old girl.

I want to know, are the schools and universities doing enough to protect our young people from sexual perverts. This young girl should sue SUNY just like the alleged victim is suing the Boy Scouts. Her case should be filed right along with the case against the Boy Scouts, as a matter of fact.

Yes, not much on him, but I found him at the college web site:

DePerno, Daniel
Faculty, Sport Media & Technology Learning Center Director
Sport Management

The rest of it is just contact information. I’m unsure of that title. He’s the “Director”? Not a department chair?

Well “Sports Media & Technology Learning Center” doesn’t sound like an academic department, so its head wouldn’t be a department chair.

The boys are too busy being taught to be sexual perverts than protecting the girls from them.

I went to school in upstate NY near Cortland.

Those farmer's daughters have always been an issue. When I was 18, the rule (enforced by the law) was "15 (years old) will get you 20 (years in prison)"

I don't think they enforce that anymore.
