Penn State Sandusky Trial #10

[SyraKelly]

Thanks WM-I am soo ready for more of the defense to make fools of themselves today-can't wait to watch this train wreck!!!!

 

[waltzingmatilda]

Sunny Hostin and some man named Bob are discussing how shocking is was that the defense witnesses tried to normalize showering with young boys!

 

[J. J. in Phila]

I think today is Amendola's last chance in the trial. His only hope, after that, is a holdout juror.

My heart goes out to these victims. I pray they see the Justice they deserve. I cant even wrap my head around Mrs. Sandusky. And of course her husband just goes without saying. Those who testified showering with young boys as normal :maddening: :what:

Sandusky to take stand? Attorney says 'stay tuned'

BELLEFONTE, Pa. — Jerry Sandusky's defense attorney compared the former Penn State assistant coach's high-profile child sex-abuse trial to a soap opera on Tuesday, telling reporters to "stay tuned" to find out if Sandusky would take the stand in his own defense.

Asked what soap opera he'd compare the trial to, defense attorney Joe Amendola initially said "General Hospital," then "All My Children."

Sandusky is charged with 51 criminal counts related to 10 alleged victims over a 15-year span. He's accused of engaging in illegal sexual contact ranging from fondling to forced oral and anal sex...

Dear Gawd that is quite an anology. A soap opera :maddening: This is real life with real victims. I think they would be fools to put him on the stand. Then again at this point???? Crown will have a hay day. Jerry cant get thru an Interview without showing what he really is.

 

[costalpilot]

the sleezy lawyer that got mj off just called JS's accusers "alleged accusers".

just goes to show some lawyers cant even get it straight when they are trying to muddy up the waters.

they ARE accusers...nothing "alleged" about that.

Amendola has subpoenaed the Victims' attorneys. He's going for a collusion argument.

Hello everyone! I've been reading but haven't chimed in yet. I'm way to behind.

I remembered a while back, while doing some research that I came across this article about a event held at PSU in 2002. I thought it was interesting.

Well, Mr. Booker Brooks said that showering with children 'is a very common thing ALL OVER THE COUNTRY." So it must be so right if he says so right? NOT!

What a bunch of bullhockey! I coached Pop Warner cheerleaders, we went to regionals 3 yrs in a row and even Nationals one year. I had a few sleepovers at my home for these 30 girls to bond and practice for these competitions. I NEVER had ANY reason to shower with any member of the squad, not even when we practiced at gyms with showers. It is the responsibly of the parent to teach a child personal hygeine. I would certainly be appalled if I learned that either of my daughters' or son's grandfathers took them into the shower at the Y. IMO, these men, Brooks, anderson, Sandusky, have boundry issues. Do they have no modesty? I never saw either of my gfs naked when I was a kid and would have been mortified if I had.

I am not yelling at you Bravo. LOL! I am :banghead: trying to figger out what planet these men are from to assume it is OK and 'normal' for an adult to shower with someone's child. I hope the jury is as outraged over this testimony as we are.

I also pray for justice for these victims. JS needs to be in :jail:

interesting to say the least. i wonder if jarry sandusky was there for the "Pedolphlia is OK" keynote speaker:


"......A women’s health conference at Penn State University featured an outspoken advocate of pedophilia and sadomasochism as a keynote speaker........"

Pennsyvalnia taxpayers are certainly a very "progressive" group, since they are Ok with paying for "pedophlia is OK" speakers at their state college. and as for the coward legislators that dont want to offend anyone, well, the voters get what they deserve, imo.

I have to say that I find the concept that it is OK for old men to shower with young children of either sex abhorrent. It is especially egregious when one thinks of those old men showering with a young girl. I have friends whom I love but I would never testify on their behalf that their perverted behaviour (If they had such behaviour, in which case they wouldn't be my friends) is normal. It really does make me nauseated and very disturbed that Centre County appears to be peopled by these old men whom many would consider to be sexual perverts. I doubt that's true, but it is certainly the impression given by these witnesses. IMO in their zeal to defend "Ol' Jer," they have destroyed their own lives and reputations.

well if the atty's and some of the state personnel said ANYTHING that MIGHT be construed as leading to ANY "alleged" accuser, then, of course, sandusky didnt rape all those boys.

the colluders certainly must have been very selective in their auditions for the "alleged accusers", who all seem to be VERY GREAT ACTORS, since the jury was crying whenh the "alleged accusers" told all their lies, on the stand, in court, before the prss, the public and the entire world....

wonder who told that mother to come up with the idea thta her son came home without his underwear all the time? and who told the "alleged accuser" to say his underwear was ruined with blood, and that he hads to throw them out?

great defense..
