I'm not in the position of desiring to impress anyone. Heck, I'm a Jew and know only of the New Testament and the words of Christ through outside study. It amazes me the extent to which they are selectively applied.
Let's assume we form lynch mobs based on media reporting about horrid subject matter - which this definitely is. What happened to the Duke Lacrosse team - they were all guilty right? Herman Cain is guily of unwanted sexual advances on multiple women, right? Sally Clark killed her own child right? What about Freddie Pitts and Wilburt Lee, Randall Dale Adams, Juan Johnson, or James Woodard? The initial indications were that they were guilty as hell - let's execute on that right?!?
A rush to judgement serves no purpose other than our own desire to feel moral and it is truly a self-serving reaction. I am sickened by the abuse of children, and I know judgement will be served upon the guilty. In that knowledge I am comforted.
Actually, that isn't quite true. Sandusky is on record as having admitted to the 1998 incident. He went to the mother's house and, while police listened from another room said that he hugged the boy while naked in the shower and that he knew it was wrong.
Why Gricar chose not to prosecute is a mystery.
