Brownroach 14022 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 06-22-12, 11:04 PM (EST) "Sandusky guilty" LAST EDITED ON 06-22-12 AT 11:15 PM (EST) On 45 counts. Eta- sorry I haven't mastered doing links on my iPad. I'm sure one of our many resourceful posters will bridge the gap. When I heard that the verdict had been reached so quickly I was fearful it was going the other way.   Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Estee 52682 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 06-23-12, 09:48 AM (EST) 5. "RE: Sandusky guilty" My one and only comfort is that there are stone-set minimum sentences on many of the charges, which the judge has no power to lower. This means we can't get the jury's verdict effectively overturned from the bench with a 'They didn't fool me' followed by six hours of probation and a public apology for the hard time. This is at least ten years in prison and that number can't be dropped during the sentencing. Which means Santorum will just have to run for governor and then pardon him.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Politicians, from every party, only pardon the inexplicable and unpardonable once they have lost the election and as they are packing to leave the building. It's tradition. Lets not say that if you pander to the gays that puts you on the slippery slope to pandering to every other sexually deviant group imaginable. It isn't the road to making political promises to the tentacle porn crowd. While every politician panders to people any given individual doesn't like, they are all pretty much (except for some the whackadoos that can't hold it together to win a primary) smart enough not to go to a group that will alienate 99% of the populace. Won't find Romney pandering the right wing equivalent of pedophiles, either.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Forever. http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/8159195/report-says-penn-state-senior-officials-disregarded-children-welfare I'm about to download and read the full report (267 pages, so this may take a while), but these words stood out to me in the article: "Penn State changed its plan and did not alert authorities of Sandusky's alleged actions after consulting with Paterno." Because they were afraid of bad publicity. Better to allow a dozen more children to be raped than for one story stopping it to made the air. And so it went for an extra thirteen years. Reputation intact, lives destroyed. An equation they were happy to work with, because they didn't get hurt. I've been calling him JoePope since this story broke. And now I'm remembering his asking the locals on his lawn to pray for the victims. Give the request for mercy on them to a higher authority, because there's nothing he would do -- except close his eyes. And he almost managed to keep doing it for a lifetime.

Sadly, the NCAA has no power to make Penn State put a ten-year freeze on all financial charges enforced against students, so they'll get their sixty million dollars back in tuition, textbooks, dorm fees, and meal plans. Plus profit. A college never really pays for anything... So far, the only major injury done is to their image.

byoffer 15231 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 07-23-12, 10:27 AM (EST) 49. "RE: Not the death penalty, but close." Universities have a few sources of funds. Certainly the students will be impacted by this and take it right in the tuition wallet. What about government money? This is a state school, right, so gets a pile of gov't dollars. Will taxpayers in PA get to pay a share? The other big source of $$ for big schools like Penn St is the alumni. I have to think this will have a very negative impact on the funds the school receives from their alumni, but then again those "blind allegiance" folks could put back the $60M and then some to keep Penn St going. What the NCAA really needs to do is find a way to find the athletic programs at the school (can they fine just football?) but in reality just as Joe Pa was culpable, so to was the university president (not just the athletics dept). Recruiting (sport or other) won't be fun at Penn St for a while!   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

There's a fun quote in it that's well worth pasting here.

I really should get a job as an editor somewhere. I see these kinds of errors in news articles every single day and they stick out like sore thumbs. From online dictionary: Reign is sometimes wrongly written for rein in certain phrases: he gave full rein (not reign) to his feelings... And guess who gave who free reign? (Yes, it's free reign this time.)   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

At least the fine is purportedly going to the cause, rather than just into the NCAA's pockets. Otherwise the taxpayers would have a right be even more upset. I've actually never really thought about that before - what do most leagues do with fine money? When Mark Cuban gets fined $100K for complaining about an official, who gets the money? (I know that he says he also donates another $100K to charity, but what about the initial $100K??)   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

This has been lost in the shuffle during the NCAA's reading of the punishment list, but it's worth mentioning: any current Penn State football player may transfer schools without having to sit out a year. Incoming students may also have the right to switch their commitment. For a very rare once, the NCAA is not handing out jail time to the innocent. Don't expect that trend to repeat.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

"RE: Sentencing tomorrow." *reads* I seldom expect a convinced felon to admit guilt, but he seems to be asking for the judge to insert the book in a place where he'll always be reminded of just how much he and he alone has suffered. The only thing missing from that conspiracy theory is an explanation of how it's all Barack Obama's fault. And I give that fourteen hours. Would you be surprised by a self-published book telling his lie of the story? Would you even blink if it was released tomorrow afternoon? All proceeds go to The Innocence Project 2.0. Because he's innocent. And he will prove it. To himself. Mission accomplished.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

"RE: He gets 30-60" In Session reports that several victims spoke, with one early in the timeline begging the later ones to forgive him. Sandusky's speech was, as with the radio statement, all about his total innocence. Which he can now tell the other inmates about. I'm sure they're interested. The judge seems to have said he didn't want to assign centuries of jail time because it would just look ridiculous. No parole before thirty years, classified as violent sexual offender.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

cahaya 17868 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 10-09-12, 10:41 AM (EST) 64. "RE: He gets 30-60" LAST EDITED ON 10-10-12 AT 01:52 AM (EST) Very likely he'll be kept in isolated protected custody for the rest of his days... From USA Today: Herbert Hoelter, a prison consultant, has helped prepare some of the country's most famous new felons — Bernard Madoff, Michael Vick and Martha Stewart to name a few — for lives in prison. Hoelter says none of them carried the risk that Sandusky brings with him as he approaches the state prison gates for the first time. As a celebrity, a convicted sex offender with multiple child victims and the man ultimately responsible for the sanctions that gutted Penn State's beloved football program, Sandusky represents a uniquely dangerous convergence of vulnerability in one Pennsylvania inmate. "I don't think there is any way — given what he represents — that he'll stay out of protected custody," Hoelter says. "He's likely looking at spending the rest of his life alone in solitary confinement just for his own safety." (eta) Another take by SI: "The Sandusky case is one of those moments when our core beliefs are really tested,'' said Lovisa Stannow, executive director of Just Detention International, a group that fights prison rape. "This is a moment when it's especially crucial to recognize that nobody ever deserves to be raped. No matter who you are, sexual violence and rape is wrong, it's a crime, and it is something we have to fight."   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

I spent far too much of last night having a very long, extremely reluctant argument with a woman who believes Sandusky is innocent. To be more specific, she believes he's the victim of a giant conspiracy designed to exploit money from Penn State in the hundreds of millions, getting a dozen con artists their payday and all it takes is costing a charitable man the rest of his life. And absolutely nothing I said to the contrary convinced her otherwise because I didn't see any of it happen, I wasn't there, and no evidence not personally witnessed can possibly exist. No, I have no idea why I did that to myself. Yes, she's a birther.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

"RE: Sandusky guilty" LAST EDITED ON 10-12-12 AT 03:07 PM (EST) I had a discussion with my co-worker earlier this afternoon about this woman's case: http://www.thestar.com/news/world/article/1270499--mom-who-glued-her-toddler-s-hands-to-the-wall-gets-99-years-in-prison She got 99 years in prison for super-gluing her toddler's hands to the wall and assaulting her to the point where the child developed bleeding in the brain. My co-worker asked this question -- what would you consider to be more heinous, Jerry Sandusky abusing numerous vulnerable young boys/men while using his fame and charity to facilitate this, or a mother willingly torturing and abusing her child in this manner? Sandusky got 30-60 years with 30 years as an absolute minimum (providing he doesn't die in prison first) while the mother is eligible to apply for parole after 30 years.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
