The GOP seems to be turning into a not-so-secret society of pervs.

At least, they have the full support of the "religious right."

What's there to know? -nothing illegal could have happened, as I'm sure the adult "victims" would have gone to the police to report it.

It was already sketchy as could be, but once it was announced that Perkins Coie was the law firm investigating Jordan, and that T Markus Funk, who used to work for James Comey's attorney Patrick Fitzgerald was leading the investigation, it lost any credibility it miiiiiight have had.


There's no shot this is going to work.
The lawyers are on the side of money in their pockets.
And the same lawyers and firms are just passed around the criminal sector.

You already have knowledge that nothing illegal happened, are you part of the investigation. How about the on record statements from 14 sports, you’re dismissing them.

I would like to hear the words come out of Jordan’s mouth that Dr Strauss was clean rather than his plea of ignorance.

If something illegal happened, you go to the police, not the coach.

Coachs aren't guardian angels that you go running to, when someone touches your bottom. They're just coaches.

Please explain. Someone makes an accusation and someone else is automatically guilty... just because he's on the opposite side of the fence. No real proof needed. Or did he bring it on himself because he rattled some cages?

That's a convenient answer because its Jordan but not true at all when it comes to large universities. Depending on the level of severity in most instances the coach (assuming he wasn't already aware). Large Universities already accept responsibility for investigating rape allegations and other fairly severe crimes.


Athletic Directors and coaches have the authority to suspend anyone on their staff if they see fit.

Rosenstein did warn him that if he kept pressing things he might end up being investigated himself. These guys have, or have the means to obtain, dirt on anyone and everyone when needed. That's why you're not supposed to mess with them and it's why the rules don't usually apply to them. Jordan just found out that's not just an urban legend.
