Not defending anything he did.
But, that was at least 34 years ago. He isn’t being charged with the sex crimes.
He is being charged with lying to investigators about why he was LEGALLY taking large sums of money out of his account.
Not yet, anyway.
He is being charged with lying to investigators about why he was LEGALLY taking large sums of money out of his account.
He is also charged with 'structuring' the withdrawals to avoid reporting requirements under federal law. Big no-no =>

So What. There is a statue of limitation that applies in the court room, just like innocent until proven guilty, in a court room. But out in the streets, these things do not apply. I have no statue of limitations, and I do not have to consider anyone innocent until proven guilty. What is important is did he or didn’t he get all Sandusky with teenaged boys. Logic says he did, I don’t need a trial to confirm this to myself, remember I do not have my own prison system. Nobody gives someone 3.5 million bucks in cash, if he did nothing, I mean nobody. The question that I would like to know is, where does someone get the balls to run for high office knowing he molested teenaged boys. I mean, what could be going through his mind.
Does 34 years make what he did less creepy and disgusting?
