Regardless of whether or not the allegations are true, one can't argue that he looks like child molestor.

It seems there's a lot of molesters out there. It also seems there's a lot of people who wait an inordinate amount of time before reporting it or kicking the molester's ass. Actually there should be more molester ass kicking. Haven't heard too much about that in the media.

I are confused. How might one's neural pathways be constructed that a person would seemingly be as willing to sexually touch a girl as a boy?

When you're told not to talk about it as a kid you get a sense of shame about what happened. It farks with your mind something fierce. You take that shame into adulthood, and keep that secret. Look at all the people who say "yeah, he molested me. I don't want to get involved." That's so farked up on so many levels. They would rather have another child molested than tell their secret.

FORTY years after the fact? Unless there are more recent allegations coming out I am going to have to say that we may be dealing with cases of "False memory." These folks were "reminded" by the Penn State scandal. In that case the molestations continued for years. As yet we have no evidence that Conlin was doing this over a long period of time. Just some vague allegations from four decades ago. Forty years is really too long to raise an accusation don't you think?

As someone who lived in Philly for ten years, let me just say this: Bill Conlin column sucked and he knows nothing about baseball.

He knows Sandusky too. This just makes it all the richer.
There were allegations of Sandusky pimping the charity boys out. Maybe after this guy got caught he left the people close to him alone.

I cannot remember another molestation case where the victims included children of both genders.

If there is corroboration the guy should have his life ruined. I still think FORTY years is an awful long time to stay silent. Is there any evidence that he has molested more recently than the 1960s? I'm NOT saying it didn't happen just that four decades later it may be hard to establish proof. I'd say the same thing for any other crime. The Penn State molestation went on for decades. Molesters also don't tend to stop offending.
Will we see cases from recent years?

2011-12-20 11:02:08 PM
After rereading the article it does seem that he has a pattern of abuse. Hopefully someone can prosecute him.

I do have a legitimate question however. How often does a molester molest both boys AND girls? Don't they tend to favor one over the other?

Given the statute of limitations, "establishing proof" is a moot point, as far as criminal charges are concerned. As the article clearly explains...

Yes I got that point about the statute of limitations. It does seem odd that he would offend forty years ago. Which is why I wondered if we will see allegations from more recent years. Isn't very unusual for a pedophile to stop molesting?

It will be interesting to see what comes out in the weeks ahead. If there is nothing newer than Forty years then it is a very strange case indeed.

Anderson's Pooper: I cannot remember another molestation case where the victims included children of both genders.

Dr. Earl Bradley, the Delaware pediatrician was jailed for abusing numerous young girls. When he was indicted there was one male victim mentioned.

My money is on connections to Sandusky's never ending supply or someone else in that network. This is how they operate. He didn't quit, he just got more stealthy.

Some episodes of L&O:SVU had sexual predators who did it for sadistic/farked-in-the-head reasons primarily and so it had nothing to do with a particular gender so much as just a small defenseless human. But IANApsychologist so I don't know how common or accurate that may be.

Happened in the town next to me on Long Island, it came out in the early 2000's when I was in high school. I actually had a couple of friends who had gone to that doctor.

Actually I DO have a theory as to why the Dr. Earl Bradley case never caught fire, Beau Biden who was attorney general of Delaware at the time dropped the ball numerous times when it came to exposing and arresting Bradley.. He decided not to run for his father's seat in the Senate so that he could cover his ass in the Bradley case. You can't have his father look bad even a little bit can you? Not in Delaware!

FTA:

In Blanchet's case, her father angrily confronted Conlin after his wife told him that Conlin had molested their daughter when she was about 7.

Blanchet's parents were out of town for the day, and Conlin was visiting her family's house in Margate, N.J. When her brother went outside to play football, Blanchet said, Conlin assaulted her.

"I was numb," she said, recalling that he put his hand between her legs, touched her genitals, and penetrated her with his fingers, stopping only when her brother Ted walked in. Her brother, now deceased, told her mother, who told her father.

"I was going to kill him, I was so furious," recalled Blanchet's father, Harry Hasson, now 75. He said he called Conlin in the Daily News newsroom and summoned him to Margate.

---

Kevin Healey was a close friend of Conlin's son Billy. One summer night when he was about 12, Healey said, he went to the Conlin house to watch a Phillies game and slept over in the living room. Conlin was covering the game for the Daily News.

Healey said he awakened in the middle of the night to find Conlin fondling his genitals and leaning toward his body with his mouth.

"I ran out of there like a bat out of hell," said Healey, now 48 and a construction worker and painter who lives in Williamstown. "I left my sneakers, my socks, and my shirt" and ran home.

"I came flying in the door," he recalled, which awakened his mother.

Barbara Healey remembers it well.

Most people in power and politics are child molesters. The proof is out there. The articles have been written.

The depth of horror that the Penn State deal involves may never be fully known, but you can be sure they were trafficking in children.
