Jerry Sandusky case: Lawyers say they've found Victim 2, the boy Mike McQueary saw being molested

Andrew Shubin and Justine Andronici, two lawyers who launched their own investigation into Sandusky's activities over the last four decades -- and the reactions of people around him -- say that Victim 2 has identified himself to them.

As part of the investigation, they acquired voicemails from Sandusky to the man, and released those on www. rossfellercasey.com, the website of the Philadelphia law firm they are working with.

In both, Sandusky ends the message with "love you."

They released a statement that reads, in part:

"Our client suffered extensive sexual abuse over many years both before and after the 2001 incident Michael McQueary witnessed in the Penn State Lasch building shower.

Awful!

that if I had been molested by a man when I was a kid I think I'd be in lock up right now for murder one. If it was my being molested by a woman I'd probably be smiling right now.
I'm a dude btw

Abuse is abuse. The ramifications of abuse by either sex can be horrific.
Smile, my ass!

if an underage male is sexually molested by a woman? This is still illegal and that theoretical woman would/should be in jail and held accountable just as much as if it were a man...So do you think it is OK if an underage girl is sexually molested by an older man??

Do you find that funny?
There is NOTHING funny about abuse in any form! It has nothing to do with perfection, but with sensitivity.

the fucking righteous police always jumping on every thread, snarking whenever anybody says anything the least out of what is "their" bounds.

It's old and tired and unfortunately it is defining DU.

As far as my 'bounds', this is one topic I always consider out of bounds for jokes from anybody. It is an extremely painful and emotional reminder. I don't spend my time hopping around on other threads so I can act righteous. This has nothing to do with being righteous..

If you can't understand that about this subject, then your mindset is beyond me. You might want to find out what a trauma like this that is widely publicized can do to those that have been abused even after many years
