Not many people around here thought this was anything more than a vindictive attempt at extortion. Obviously, the jury agreed.

Too bad. His reputation has been ruined by false charges and there's not much he can do about it.

They claim the allegations by his daughters, now all adults, stem from a dispute over money and resentment over the way Murphy treated some of the children compared to others.

No evidence, no priors, no case. Any one can claim that they were abused 'x' years ago; but unless you can show evidence to substanciate it, I don't think it should stand.

Granted, he is not the ideal father, role model, nor can I find much to admire about him in any capacity. But being a cretin and being a child molester are two very different things.

prosecutor Paula Storts told jurors. "He's a liar. He's a cheat and he's a child molester."

Yet only one of those things is a crime Paula.

Looks to me like 5 women conspired to get some money out of this creep.

Though they might have had it coming to them , this is the wrong way to get it.

If Scott Peterson was an athlete, he would have been found not guily.

If Sadaam Hussein was an athlete, he would be found not guilty.

Stalin and Hitler should have been athletes.

I, too, have never liked Calvin Murphy, he is a loud mouth windbag with horrible diction.

However, he is not guilty of molesting his children when they were younger. If it had been true, we would have heard about it years ago.

It's speaks volumes about the mental state of his daughters that they would do all this for $52,000.

Missed all of it.
I was wondering why the Comet coach was there instead of Calvin.

"He concealed from his own wife for more than 20 years that he has four other families," prosecutor Paula Storts told jurors.

Bull $hit.

This lie by the prosecuter would have made my mind up really early. I wouldn't have believed another thing that she said.
