Denies everything.
 
Syracuse, NY -- Bernie Fine, the assistant Syracuse basketball coach who is the subject of a Syracuse police investigation into charges of molestation, released a statement today to the media denying the charges leveled against him.
 
The statement was released about 3:20 p.m. today by Karl J. Sleight, a partner with Harris Beach law office in Albany.
 
"Simply put, these allegations are patently false in every aspect. The fact is these
 allegations have been thoroughly investigated multiple times. When evaluating the
 veracity of these accusations, please keep in mind that credible media outlets were
 approached in the past to publicize these false allegations and declined to do so. I fully
 cooperated with all past inquires.
 
"Sadly, we live in an allegation-based society and an internet age where in a matter of
 minutes one's life long reputation can be severely damaged. I am confident that, as in the past, a review of these allegations will be discredited and restore my reputation. I hope the latest review of these allegations will be conducted expeditiously.
 
"Finally, I appreciate the Chancellor’s statement that I should be accorded a fair
 opportunity to defend myself against these accusations. I fully intend to do so. There
 should never be a rush to judgment when someone’s personal integrity and career are on the line."
