"sexual conduct with a girl in her late teens whom he met in connection with his column"

This is such dodge of the conduct it left me wondering if they should have forwarded it to a prosecutor, or nominated him (by democrats) for president!

Late teens, 17 18 or 19?

Sexual conduct, words or deeds? How serious?

In connection with his column, reader or employee?

They also mentioned that it happened some years ago, more than ten? Twenty? I don't know how long he has been a writer there, so that's the limit.

ANONONYMOUS TIP=red flag for something weird.
Has he stepped on any toes lately?

I'm not being an apologist for him, one one end of the scale I say prosecute him and on the other end it may not even rise to a good sexual harassment suit. But the article leaves out so much it makes me wonder why they even wrote the article.

This is SHOCKING..........Bob Greene has been an absolute CHAMPION of children's rights in abuse cases for a long time....remember the Little Richard case where a 4 year old was unceremoniously RIPPED from a loving, adoptive home in Chicago's suburbs because the sperm-donor "dad" never actually signed off when the boy was adopted....Greene was out there for the rights of the kid.......also the abused Brillion, Wisconsin girl kept in a dog cage in the basement of the family's home was another case he brought to the forefront of the news...and many other abused kids......if THIS situation is true, it is shocking...and sooo sad!

I am of the mind that was expressed by Cary Grant in a movie, "Under 18 protected by law, over 65 protected by nature, everything in between is fair game."

I believe, like you, that there is something more to this story. Nobody ever questions Hugh Hefner about his late teen women.
