True. But my only comment is that "grooming" isn't a crime unless there is a crime associated with it. In other words, if one is "friendly" with a child that isn't a crime. But if that person moves from "friendly" to "abusive" then grooming can be charged as a crime. I am not 100% certain of PA in 2011 but believe that was the law at the time and may still be.His vagueness is perfectly consistent with someone who doesn’t want to admit he was not touched sexually which may risk his PSU settlement money, and someone who doesn’t want to explicitly claim Jerry touched him sexually and risk a perjury charge.
I do acknowledge that Allan may honestly believe Jerry was grooming him with the showers, so he may not be technically lying when he claimed to be an abuse victim. But I think it’s clear based on all the evidence there was never any sexual contact between him and Sandusky.
And, of course, what he said in 2011 means little in terms of what the PSU people did or should have done in 2001. It is a matter of what he said in 2001.
