All I can promise you is that we will attempt to be as thorough and fair as we can possibly be - not just to the facts of the story - but also to you, our readers. And that means being as open and transparent as we can be.

And how open and transparent is that? They implied twice in two lines they aren't going to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth so what's the point?

You might think, them being a newspaper and all, they'd recognize that folks don't buy that open and transparent thing anymore after being subjected to three years of Obama's version of it.

I truly pray that this isn't the start of a major trend.

I'm hoping and praying that these revelations are end of a major trend. Sandusky and Conlin would have been my last guesses at pedophiles. I wonder how many are judges and attorneys and legislators and school administrators. Oh, and Hollywood.

You are 100 percent right. There is a reason for the degradation this country has gone through. This might be it.

The solitary ones are usually gender focused.

larger “Pedophile rings” on the other hand often grab any vulnerable victim. Maybe it is a mob mentality for pedophiles thing.
