If I recall, Dranov wasn't called for advice. He happened to be at the house that night.
I don't think that's correct, at least according to MM's testimony. In the 12/16/11 prelim MM said:
Pg. 67: MM said he and his dad decided right away that Joe needed to know what happened before Dr. D even came over.
They considered calling the police but didn't even though MM was “perfectly confident he saw a serious or severe sexual act”.
**Huhhh??? How in the world does that make ANY sense??** Joe definitely needs to know but the police don't need to be informed about a suspected severe sexual act with a kid?? This is why MM's non sequitur testimony will get destroyed on the stand.
There's also this contradictory exchange between MM and Roberto:
Q: Did you explain to him anal intercourse?
A: No. I would have explained to him the positions they were in roughly, that it was definitely sexual, but I have never used the words anal or rape in this -- since day one.
Q: Right, and you didn't use those words because you weren't sure that that is what was happening in the shower, right?
A: Ma'am. I'm sure I saw what I saw in the shower. I'm sure of that. I did not see insertion or penetration and I didn't hear protests or any verbiage but I do know what I saw and the positions they were in that -- and it was very clear that it
looked like there was intercourse going on, ma'am.
Q: But you would not say for sure that that's what you saw?
A: I’ve testified that I cannot tell you 1,000 percent sure that that’s what was going on
Q: Well, let’s just say 100 percent sure
A: Okay, 100 percent sure
Q: Okay, you can’t say that?
A: No
============
In short, MM thought there was intercourse and or fondling but couldn't verify either since he couldn't see anything (and its his word against C/S as to what was reported to C/S). It all goes back to the sounds/positions for Mm. This is the state's lynch pin to pull in PSU. It's relying on MM pure unverified speculation about the sex acts that were supposedly occurring and MM's uncorrobroated claims that he told the admins about suspected abuse (vs a shower that made him feel uncomfortable). I'd say that since MM couldn't verify any of his suspicions re: JS, taking MM's vague report to the state licensed phd expert at TSM who had direct control over JS' access to kids was the next best thing they could do since MM apparently didnt feel strongly enough to file a police report.
Apparently the state is throwing the book at college admins for not recognizing the groomong red flags (inappropriate showers, etc) of a pillar of the community offender while leaving the actual child care experts running the victim farm state licensed charity, who received multiple complaints about JS over the years (see Kitty Genovese quote about having to tell JS to "back off" certain kids in the past), go completely free without a single charge. Hmm yeah that makes perfect sense. Lets hold the admins to a higher standard than the experts who are supposed to see these red flags, etc.
If you want to see a conplete 180 from the PAOAG's actions toward PSU just look at the Mich AG in the Nassar case. There were multiple contemporaneous complaints made directly to MSU staff who told those people they didn't know what they were talking about (due to ththe grooming people had the wool pulled over them). We see the Mich AG actually defer to MSU and their internal investigation as to whether or not there will be MSU folks charged. Whaaaaaa?!?
