I do call some BS on this mother’s story
She had no idea over all those years? Allowing all those sleepovers with a lovesick old chicken hawk??? No Mom gay-dar went “ping” even a tiny bit?
She didn’t know Sandusky was pulling her kid out of school?
What school lets a kid be released without parental permission?
as an aside
all this outrage at Penn State-
what about the entire Hollywood movie and music industries and their lionizing Michael Jackson and who knows what other child predators???
Don’t be so hard on this mother.
The man was a football coach—that’s a manly profession, no?
The boy had a father figure—she probably thought this was a good thing.
And the boy—is completely believable that he didn’t know how to come forward about the abuse—he probably didn’t even have words to know what happened to him.
Sexual abuse can come from quarters where you would never even suspect it. It’s an evil world out there.
The blame goes to Sandusky and his enablers. And if that means the whole football program goes at PSU, so be it.
And I think there is much more to this whole story. The disappearance of the District Attorney Gricar is a lot of smoke pointing to a very big fire.
"You should..." This mother's guilty conscience is speaking loudly and clearly.
I agree with you, my BS flags went up as soon as the stories started breaking, my opinion it’s all about the money now.
Schools in State College.
“what about the entire Hollywood movie and music industries and their lionizing Michael Jackson and who knows what other child predators???”
Exactly! Remember, Roman Polanski?
44-year-old man, you can drug and anally rape a terrified 13-year-old girl as she sobs, says “no, no, no,” and pleads for her asthma medication, and face no punishment at all
Whoopi Goldberg said it wasn’t “rape-rape”
Jonatham Demme, Whoopi Goldberg (”It was something else, but I don’t believe it was rape-rape.”), John Landis, Mike Nichols, Salman Rushdie, Martin Scorcese, Tilda Swinton, Diane von Furstenberg, and Debra Winger (pictured at a Zurich press conference stating, “[The arrest] is based on an... old case that is all but dead but for minor technicalities.”)
Hollywood, influential movie mogul Harvey Weinstein’s called for US filmmakers to lobby against Polanski’s extradition
from the LAT...
“My personal thoughts are let the guy go,” said Peg Yorkin, founder of the Feminist Majority Foundation. “It’s bad a person was raped. But that was so many years ago. The guy has been through so much in his life. It’s crazy to arrest him now. Let it go. The government could spend its money on other things.”...
My son at that age was very nice looking, small and blond. He was into music, theater, and wrestling. I was always there. It annoyed him but I WAS ALWAYS THERE.
