This is a possibility that occurred to me.
Years ago I knew of a father who was the passenger in a car being driven by his son who only had a learner's permit. Somehow the car crossed a yellow line and hit a parked truck, causing the truck driver, who was unloading the truck, to be knocked to the sidewalk.
The son became very upset both because he lost control of the vehicle and because he didn't have the learner's permit on him. The father let the boy walk home and then claimed to have been driving the car when the police arrived. The deception fell apart rapidly because there were several witnesses who saw the boy driving.
To this day I am still amazed at the sacrifice the father would make to cover up what turned out to be a minor fender-bender. To the boy it must have seemed extremely serious.
I wonder if Bolling was covering up for his son, perhaps never realizing what the final cost would be. I am quite convinced that many fathers would try to protect their son from the negative consequences of such a lack of judgement. Whatever the truth is, this is a sad day.
It’s possible that the son sent dirty pictures to somebody on his father’s computer or phone, but would he really send them to people at FNC and FBN rather than to girls closer to his own age?
“This (his son sendint the pictures) is a possibility that occurred to me.”
IIRC, the pics were sent 15 years ago when Eric was working on Wall Street. His kid would have been 4 years old. That timeline may not be correct, but I’ve always heard the 15-year thing.
His son would have been a toddler at the time these photos were sent so no...
