Message: [QUOTE="arbitragegls, post: 82179, member: 302"] ...good information and comments here...more over; remaining patient and calm is a strategy that should be followed but is not being followed by JB and some others Here is why: As each minute passes, new information is put forth...some may help/some may hurt the accusers case. Speaking out and defending Bernie for example, doesnt do much for the case but does make everyone feel better..as said doesnt do much for case and potentially puts that person in defending to take hits... but indicates for example some people of high stature believe Bernie is a fine person and did not do this (I hope these accusations are not proven)--speaks to Bernie's character but again doesnt do much for Bernie; [B]however, as information comes forward reasonableness of the information must be looked at and reviewed...[/B]Jake's post regarding what happens in the end if Bernie is found guilty by a moral court--unless Louisianna decides to get involved (up to 30 years and age of 18 before case goes away) and prosecutes... [B]JB committed an action of friendship and defense when maybe[/B] he should have remained a bit less over the top (Bernie has always been a person of high character) as he probably would have remained above the happenings. For example the following should be noted...interesting information that has come forward since JB's pro outburst: 1. Accusers did indicate [B]abuse in Louisiana[/B]--has one of most extended time period for child sexual abuse...hmmmm, why out of a 1000 times being supposedly molested did this event/state get mentioned; 2. [B]Tim Welsh, for example, added information that helps Bernie[/B] [B]without placing himself in a position of being questioned[/B] (as JB has done) ---when asst coaches traveled they roomed together ---for 3 years Bernie and I roomed together on the road ---for NC Bernie brought his family and the accuser as a baby sitter ---did not see any inappropriate action between Bernie and his accuser at the NC----[B]so there is potential testimony refuting being molested at NC and staying in Bernie's room[/B] ---[B]Accusers mother has no clue[/B] about this abuse until 2003 when son was interviewed by ESPN...hmmmm ----[B]Why did Mark S recontact the accusers[/B] after case dropped in '03...if I am correct in this...what was reason to dig up old case As more information comes forward, more ammunition is available for defense...and possibly the accuser...[B]why step in the line of fire if you do not have to.[/B]...[B]I support Bernie[/B] in this because I do not believe he is an abusive person....that doesnt mean I go all in...that is nothing short of gambling and we know how that can end. If Bernie is morally and/or legally wrong...JB will most likely not have his job within a NY minute of the announcement of guilt...then we will be positng why did it get caught in this mess...he did nothing...except support a friend that could be done in other ways... CAPT TUTTLE please weigh in...thanks [/QUOTE]
