did the university know about 'the tape' in 2005? So far we know that Davis gave them 4 names who would corroborate his story and none of them did. Did he give them the tape too? If not why not? If they did have it did the law firm determine that it wasn't legit? Was Laurie Fine interviewed as part of the investigation?
 
Age is never established in the tape. I'm sure Laurie was interviewed and said she knew this was going on when he was 18, but not before then. Let's remember gay does not equal pedophile.
 
If that were the case, bernie would have retired before this.

That is one of several key questions. Its hard to believe he did not give them the tape but its also hard to believe he did. If he did, the tape would have to be included in the report and have to have resulted in an interview of Laurie Fine. And it would seem that would have to have resulted in a finding of inappropriate conduct/disciplinary action, unless the report concluded that Bernie was carrying on a consensual, homosexual affair with a young adult with the knowledge of his wife and it did not warrant termination. Its hard to believe that happened but perhaps.

Other questions are (1) is it normal for a child molester to continue to carry on a homosexual affair with a child victim after the victim becomes an adult? I have no clue, but would guess experts would say emphatically no -- that child molesters like children and move on to other children when the victims become adults. In other words, has Bernie been exposed as a total friek or a pedophile.

And (2), as trivial as it seems on the surface, if the facts are rock solid that JB never went to Fine's hotel room, much less when there and saw Davis in there, that helps tremendously in justifying the pack of lies comment. It does not matter if the accusations are ultimately true or not, if someone specifically brings you into the allegations and you know that that is a lie, you are going to call it a lie and quickly conclude its all a lie.

Having heard the tape, (but only one time) I'm having a hard time giving either of the Fines any more benefit of doubt. I am still giving JB and the University the benefit of the doubt but I am beginning to wonder if that is more about what I want to be true than what is???

Agreed!
 
Agreed!

Not definitive, but it would seem highly unusual that in recent years the Fines and Boeheims lived across the street from one another if JB had an idea of nefarious activities.

Two weeks ago I would have said it would seem highly unusual and improbable that Laurie Fine would still be with Bernie if she had any inkling that this was going on, so I'm not willing to make those sort of inferences any longer. I can't come up with any scenario that has Laurie Fine saying what she does on that tape and still being living with Bernie just defies reason.
