"Bo knew. They all knew." Michigan football hero demands apology for sex abuse.

[TuscanyTile2]

Any Michigan fans on this site?  Has anyone heard of this?  Would be pretty disturbing if yet another school had a sex abuse scandal going on.

What exactly is going on here?!

Nihilism.

It’s almost like this is a systematic thing.

Men in positions of power using that power to abuse vulnerable young men/women, all while people around them enable them and help to keep it under wraps for their own benefit.

I know, weird, right?

Of course, but how widespread is this crap?  These are just the things we know of.

Van Hooser was a POS liar, derelict and convict and recanted his accusations. Accused Fine, his foster parent, because he wouldn’t help get him out of prison. 

Testified Fine never touched him.

I’m going to need a Venn diagram of Qanon nuts and people willing to overlook this stuff if it infringes in their entertainment.

[oatmeal]

Go read those quotes from that alleged victim of Micah Parsons… Talk about reading something disturbing ??

[GKnight83]

Wow. 

This is the first I am hearing of this.

[Peteo]

I went to Michigan in the 60's.  I never heard of anything like this.  Watching that video makes me sad that the powers in the school let it happen.

And of course, the MSM is not covering it.

what do you mean not covering it?  just because YOU are just hearing of this doesn't mean it hasn't been in the news.  the university conducted an extensive review last year.  a large settlement was announced last month.  here is just a quick sampling of stories

I'm wrong then. 

Any thoughts though as to why the Penn State was such a big news story while this wasn't (at least as far as I'm aware)?  Shouldn't the fact that it happened yet again (and to another Big 10 school, no less)  should raise an even bigger question about how widespread this stuff is?

not to in any way lessen what anderson was accused of or did, but sandasky sexually molested little kids, including accusations of anal rape of a 10 year old boy

as to anderson, he died in 2003, so this isn't exactly a current event.  most of the allegations are 30+ years old.  bo schembechler died in 2006, so he can't exactly answer for his actions or alleged lack of action

I think it's mainly because everyone involved is dead.

Re: Big 10 -- You're leaving out Michigan State, they were involved in the Nassar thing too IIRC. Weird trend. Doubt it's emblematic of a specific thing related to the conference as much as creeps in power use their power to be creepy. 

The Epstein thing was really the tip of the iceberg. I'm not a big conspiracy guy but it's pretty much impossible to look at his "suicide" as being remotely legitimate.

[Long Island Leprechaun]

Catholic church, boy scouts... It's endless and utterly demoralizing when you think about it. 

 

[rangerous]

it's not surprising in one sense but in another just who would suspect a professional of pulling this kind of crap?  the solution is for the universities to stop providing these services to the students and let them go to a nearby hospital or clinic.  no telling if those places don't have perves running around but at least fewer kids would be potentially exposed.
