EXACTLY what my first thought was when i saw this.

There is also the case of Ellie Nesler, who, in 1993, shot and killed her son’s molester in the courtroom.
The perp was accused of molesting Nesler’s son at a church camp, along with three other boys. Nesler shot the molester after he turned around and “smirked” at her and her family during the trial.
Sadly, Ellie Nesler later died of cancer and her son is in prison for murder.
“while you continue to defend a child molester”
You have a problem with reading comprehension. This is not always caused by deterioration of your cognitive skills. Sometimes there are emotional bases for the problem. Examine both possibilities.
Not only do I not “continue” to defend Dr. Nassar but I also never did defend him.
Rather, if you read my post, perhaps out loud, you will see that I was actually adding blame to the victims and their parents.
The parents are so angry because in their hearts they know they failed their children. I deduce this because they imparted to the children a very unhealthy importance of Olympic success.
And, the girls themselves must not have been as traumatized as they claimed or they would not have continued with the pervert in silence. They wanted something (Olympic success) and the tolerance of the perversion was part of the price. Children don’t get a pass when they act deliberately. Just because it is sexually related doesn’t mean they didn’t have a part in it. Of course they should be excused for their silence, but that does not change the fact that they got something they perceived as valuable from it.
If your 8 year old steals money from your wallet and gives it to the teacher because the teacher says he will fail him, dashing his hopes for college, he still stole your wallet.
If the girls did not have a correct appreciation of how wrong the touching was, who is to blame?
Blaming the victims is the best way to defend a guilty felon.
Perhaps you should seek professional help for your issues.
Thought of that, too.
I am not troubled to blame the parents and the girls, in part, for what happened to them, but more importantly, what happened to others after.
The parents’ and victims rapacious desire for fame and success is at the heart of this problem. If the ice cream truck vendor had fingered these girls he would have been in handcuffs by nightfall. But the parents and the girls ceded their control and safety over to a person they did not know, on reputation alone. He turned out to be dangerous. Why didn’t they tell? Prioritization of their own fame.
I would not have done that. Would you?
Let’s pray some of the inmates in the prison this jerk winds up in - those who were abused as children - have a few ‘minutes alone’ with the doctor...
Yea, don’t get me wrong. i’d see him castrated.
