I agree with upstate and wkmac lets not get the hanging rope out yet. If the accused is guilty he should he should go to jail for the rest of his life.
If the accusations are phony the accusers should pay a huge price.
I believe there are two accusers at this point. One has claimed that he was molested until his late twenties.
Hard time believing that unless he is mentally challenged. As was already mentioned some type of investigation was done years ago --no evidence ,no witness, no other "victims" came forward.
A real sad movie with Hepburn dealt with the consequence of false accusations--The Childrens Hour. A teacher because of a false accusation eventually commits suicide.
Please do not interpret this post that I approve of child molestors. I believe that it ranks on the top on any crime that a person can commit. Hate to use a cliche but Innocent until proven guilty should still apply.
