Culture rears its ugly head at Pitt

[PITT man 89]

I came on your site as I have seen conversation on our site regarding this. This is your football site so it just seems ironic that you would mention we are all about football and not child safety.
I have only been to 2 Pitt-PSU games but consider you a rival as I do WVU & ND. Hoping for a good and close game in Happy Valley this year.

 

[lionlurker]

Please come back. We're not done insulting Pitt yet.

And please note, unlike claims made elsewhere, you're not being banned. Polite posters are not banned.

Football is mentioned because that's all your board comments about. They revel in it, print t-shirts about it. Go read your board, and tell me you're not all about football. And children? Good grief, name one person on your board that has done a damn thing? Not even honest enough to call out the very system that allowed Sandusky to continue. Not a word, only football. And thus why the system fails to this very day. Your board makes it all about football, and never about protecting children. Not only that, they enjoy it. Not a single topic on your board escapes Penn State or Joe. You have a player suspended, it's about Joe. So tell me please, what the hell does Joe have to do with Bookser's DUI? Then you can explain the lies told how Joe didn't discipline either. That's a really good one. Or how the police answered to Joe, and he stoped them from doing their jobs. Yeah, hard to defend the insanity. Internet wonderboys.

There are many boards related to Pitt. I follow more closely a medical board that posts on Autism as I am in that field. I am enjoying the fast responses and it feels more like a live chat than a posting board. H2P

 

[lionlurker]

If there's ever been a football board that could be connected to autism, it's the Lair. Give that place a try.

Respectfully, right is always right. I think Pitt handled this situation correctly and this sicko should go to and stay in jail.

What variables are you referring to?

I agree. But people do things based on the information they have at the time. I think this country engages in contests to see who can be the most morally outraged over a situation and most times those sitting in judgement don't know their ass from their elbows. And you can never depend on the media to be objective.
I have a question for you. Do you think it's right pitt fans call Penn State fans disgusting names like rape enabled, etc at the pitt game.

 

[PITT man 89]

I think it is time to leave you gents now. Take care.

How convenient, so Pedsburgh hiring a sociopath "Sicko", bears no accountability for having this psychological, sociopathic "Sicko" as their Director of their Counseling Center (i.e., clinical psychiarty)??? Huh???

Even this publication which is published by The University questions that absurd claim - see link below as well as selected excerpts below link:

Pitt counseling center director charged with possessing child pornography​

“We want to assure all students that your health and well-being is our top priority, and that the services provided by our staff in the University Counseling Center will continue unabated,” the statement said.

Shawn Ahearn, a spokesperson for student affairs which oversees the counseling center, did not respond to questions asking for further information about how the arrest will affect the center and referred The Pitt News to Pitt spokesperson Joe Miksch and Susan Rogers.

Miksch said other administrative staff will handle Michaels’ duties.

University Spokespeople refusing to answer how such a psycologoical, sociopathic "Sicko" could be hired into, let alone run as a DIRECTOR, a Clinical Psychology Center at The University - go figure!

It doesn't end there either....

The now-removed bio said Michaels provides consultation to the University, particiates in several committees focused on student heath and gives presentations to students and faculty to “promote student well-being, mental health and functioning.”

This "Sicko" gives presentations to students and faculty promoting "student well-being, mental health and functioning"? Interesting, that explains a lot in regards to the ASWP Pedsburgh mental cases that show up here daily!

The University of Pittsburgh bio also notes that for 12 years Michaels was a “full-time member of the faculty of the child clinical psychology internship at Children’s Memorial Hospital.”

Good thing this guy wasn't being given direct access to children......oh wait!

Michaels replaced Tevya Zukor in 2015 after only five years, and Zukor is now serving in the same role at the University of Mary Washington. Michaels’ possible replacement would be the fourth counseling center director since 2010.

Gee, I wonder why they are having so much turnover in a Clinical Psychiatry Department when they keep hiring people that are bigger psychos than their clients to run the department? But of course, Pedsburgh bears no responsibility for hiring a "Sicko" prepubescent pedophile to run a Clinical Psychology Center dedicated to "student well-being, mental health and functioning" according to doodle-brains here??? Go figure!

I figured he'd bail. Don't you remember the last time this "doctor" was here? He finally slammed Penn State until he was banned. The guy is a Pedsburgh idiot, and he isn't going against their stupid narrative.

 

[Hotshoe]

It's called pot meet kettle. It's why you don't cast stones. And now they all say, let's wait till all the facts come out regarding Bookser et al. What a joke.

 

[john4psu]

Have you ever tried to carry a civil discussion with a Pitt fan about Pitt football? Just Pitt football, that's the subject matter. In trying to discuss anything about their last 30+ years of mediocrity, which is an undeniable fact, they will bring up Penn State. It's easily visible on their message boards as well amongst themselves.

No worse than those two trash pails on meeeechigan's site. I wouldn't waste any time there. Those two are pathetic and that board is dead, probably because of trash like them.

Pittsburgh sports announcer pleads to child porn
By Paula Reed Ward, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

A well-known local sports announcer and former weekend news anchor for ESPN Radio 1250 pleaded guilty to child pornography charges today in federal court.

John P. Duffy, 47, of Carnegie, faces a likely prison term of 51 to 63 months when he is sentenced Jan. 22 by Senior U.S. District Judge Alan N. Bloch.

Mr. Duffy, who was charged after a May 16 search of his home, had more than 40 video files of children engaged in sexually explicit behavior on his computer. Some of those children, according to Assistant U.S. Attorney Soo Song, were prepubescent.

A Pennsylvania State Police trooper doing an online investigation into people sharing child pornography came across Mr. Duffy on April 17. His computer was sharing more than 100 files.

A U.S. marshal took Mr. Duffy into custody following his hearing, as is required by federal law for that charge.

Mr. Duffy had previously worked with ESPN national radio as a local correspondent. In addition, he worked in the press box at University of Pittsburgh football games serving the media contingent, as well as for women's basketball at the Petersen Events Center.

University of Pittsburgh student charged with child porn
By Associated Press
Wednesday, April 13, 2016

PITTSBURGH (AP) - The district attorney’s office has charged a Kuwaiti student at the University of Pittsburgh with possessing child pornography.

Eighteen-year-old Ammar Butaleb faces a preliminary hearing April 26 on that charge and also with criminal use of a cellphone.

Investigators say they received a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children that some 20 videos were contained in an online Dropbox account that they later determined Butaleb had used in Pittsburgh and Kuwait City.

Investigators say Butaleb acknowledged knowing child pornography was illegal and that he viewed the images on his phone. Butaleb also told investigators he has no interest in child pornography and that the files were sent to him.

Online court records don’t list a defense attorney, and Butaleb didn’t immediately return an email to his student account for comment.

Child porn victims sue former Allegheny College professor

• From staff and wire reports
• Dec 29, 2016

Kirk Nesset

A former award-winning Allegheny College professor convicted on child pornography charges is being sued by eight victims depicted in the porn series authorities discovered on his computers.

The victims, identified only by pseudonyms, filed a lawsuit against 59-year-old Kirk Nesset in Erie federal court last week seeking statutory damages of $150,000 apiece in addition to compensatory and punitive damages.

Seattle-based lawyer Carol Hepburn says she brought the legal action to compensate the victims, who continue to suffer because recordings of their abuse are online forever.

The former creative writing and contemporary literature professor resigned from his position at Allegheny College following his arrest in October 2014.

Nesset was charged in October 2014 with one count each of distribution of child pornography, receipt of child pornography and possession of child pornography after the FBI and Pennsylvania State Police executed a search warrant on his Meadville home and found more than a half million images of child pornography on his home computer.

The government said Nesset's child pornography activities took place between November 2005 and October 2014 and that a forensic examination of his computer found more than 540,000 images or movies which depicted child pornography, child erotica or child modeling.

Nesset pleaded guilty to all three counts in April 2015 and voluntarily reported to prison in May 2015 to begin serving jail time.

Nesset is currently serving a 76-month term in a federal prison in California. In addition to the more than six-year sentence, Nesset also received 10 years of probation and, as a sex crimes offender, he must register his whereabouts with authorities for the rest of his life.

Nesset formerly was a tenured professor of English at Allegheny College and had taught at the college since 1995. Nesset won the Drue Heinz Literature Prize in 2007 for a collection of short stories called “Paradise Road.” The award is given annually by the University of Pittsburgh Press.

Sounds like an epidemic.

They all knew, and they did nothing, except give him an award.

Is this why so many coaches leave Pitt? They find out how they are all enablers and want to get the F out? Might explain why they don't have any fans either.

The truly sad part is their board has done nothing but make light of it. It honestly disgusting. I'm astounded a mod has not put an end to it.

Couple of trashbags on the scum board do the same thing.

I don't know if the 2 are actually the same idiot. Also, Stain and another idiot I think Panturd79 attempted to trash the tOSU free board. And Jockstrap has a new nic here mlvsml something like that.

Edit: Pitt Chains is claiming Bookser "isn't in school".
