Neither one of them sound like intellectual protoges.

In response ... you are right. A pedophile is a pedophile. Typically when children reach a certain age or level of developmental growth the pedophile moves on to his preferred age and developmental level. Typically if a father is a pedophile, for example, and have 2 daughters the first being abused will be ignored after reaching a certain age or level of physical/mental development and the father will move to the younger one.

Now while Bernie may have held some power over the alledged victim the alledged victim has the physical power at some point to say "Stop" or "No" ... that usually occurs well before the age of 27 ... unless it became consenting... but that would not fit the characteristics of a pedophile.

This may not be atypical. A way to escape abuse or advances would be to introduce another individual to take your place ... that way you also maintain the benefits as well (i.e. being a ball boy). What better person to introduce than a brother or step-brother making the initial individual equally culpable. But neither of the alledged victims came across as shining lightbulbs.

My big problem and question relative to this whole allegation... did ESPN do any background checks on the alledged victims ... personally and psychologically.
