Perhaps that candidate strongly felt that the voters should be spared the expense of the recount.
That degree of guilt might have mattered 5 years ago but that window of opportunity has long passed. The damage has been done and the degree of Sandusky's guilt will have no effect on the perceptions by the public of those damaged reputations.
Not to mention the victims testified to more than just snapping towels or naked bear hugs. PSU fans saying....nahh...I just don't believe it doesn't mean it didn't happen. It more like they just want to deny it happened because it's truly that disgusting which it is. I honestly stopped caring what outsiders had to say a long time ago, but a few here are still holding on to hope it was all just a big mistake. It's a special sort of denial.
How does Aaron Fisher's case have any bearing on what Jerry did the to other victims? So if he didn't molest Aaron then he didn't molest victim 9?
and perhaps that is why his answers were "I would have said" rather than "I said"
It is a special sort of quest for a "fair" trial for an individual as well. There are no doubt thousands that have been convicted through even more questionable legal proceedings, yet most here are only focused on Jerry's plight. I don't see them fighting for justice for other individuals on a broader scale, just poor ole Jer. That doesn't provide much credibility for their legal system failure arguments.
Call it whatever you like.....but there is no denying that every "victim" denied abuse initially, then ran to the bank with a 3 million dollar settlement. That should bring out the skeptic in anyone.
Actually if you've followed the conversations here, many have stated that they don't care if Sandusky received a fair trail or that his type of crime didn't warrant it. So in objecting to the way the OAG constructed and prosecuted the case against JS, it is in fact an objection to the abuse of power and denial of rights to all accused. That is a major concern for me and I believe others here.
Devil's advocate: His lawyers probably told him not to say "I said..." unless he explicitly remembered exactly what he said, or had a record of what he said, back in 2001. Given that it was 10 years earlier, he probably didn't remember it exactly, so he phrased it in a manner that was likely suggested to him ("I would have said...") to protect him from any sort of potential legal issues stemming from his testimony in case someone else did somehow have a record of his exact words that may not match McQ's 2011 testimony.
When you start visiting other inmates and champion their unfair trials you will gain some credibility. Otherwise your argument has no credibility as an effort to address any abuse other than what your chosen one has experienced. Your focus is Jerry, not others.
I am missing your point? For many of us this is our first glimpse into the legal system. Because we haven't visited or championed other cases doesn't make one bit of difference in this case. 20 or 200 wrongs doesn't minimize any one specific wrong does it?
Because it's not really about Jerry's "fair" trial, it's the hope that somehow it didn't happen for a few here. Have you ever seen so much concern for a convicted serial pedophile anywhere in your life? Well he may have only licked a few of them...WTF.
If this happened at any other school, these same people would be hurling insults left and right.
If it happened at any other school it would be interesting to see the reaction of those here to others hanging on to JZ's every word as the gospel.
You are full of crap to make that statement because you know nothing about me. In fact I have worked with inmates over a period of time in upstate NY and have seen individuals released as dna evidence etc. has exonerated them after spending more than a decade in maximum security prisons.
The longer this goes on, the weaker the arguments get! Talk about a reach!
In fairness, I believe you would agree.....the Catholic Church didn't pay vicitms 3 million each.
Right as the only victim that matters to you is the one that deals with PSU. The rest don't matter as this is only about PSU to you. Whether or not Jerry molested 7 other kids...who cares..you are on a mission for the school. Maybe they'll put up a statue of the BWI Jerry crusaders once this big misunderstanding gets cleared up.
Probably liked the step stool as a prop.
Well yeah...they weren't as dumb as the leadership up at PSU either. I think they got off for half a billion for 3000 or so victims. Mind boggling that the school allowed one man to do so much damage when this was all found out 2 years after he was retired.

Thanks for posting this as people need to see where you guys are coming from. PSU first...those dirty scumbag single home d-bags ruined so much. They probably wanted it from Jerry too.
