about the Sandusky thing. A graduate assistant caught him raping a kid in the shower and didn't stop it, he went and talked to Paterno about it. How could anybody not stop that?

Please add Graphic to your thread title. Thank you uppityperson Jul 2014 #1

I gathered from the Title what I was expecting to see, but ok. Dustlawyer Jul 2014 #36

The thread title should have a warning - REVENGE PORN! SecularMotion Jul 2014 #47

And here I thought it was saint-like restraint. aikoaiko Jul 2014 #89

Me too. He'd look a lot worse if it was my kid. Scuba Jul 2014 #100

i think that was completely obvious... lame54 Jul 2014 #64

Works for me. 11 Bravo Jul 2014 #2

Good job dad Politicalboi Jul 2014 #3

I'm sure some will criticize LordGlenconner Jul 2014 #4

I am glad the dad did not kill him and ruin another life, his own! Dustlawyer Jul 2014 #38

And the f-words I have to give Aerows Jul 2014 #7

Good job Dad backwoodsbob Jul 2014 #8

Same here. LuvNewcastle Jul 2014 #29

I admire his restraint. nt DisgustipatedinCA Jul 2014 #9

I hope he didn't hurt his hand Aerows Jul 2014 #11

Me too, Aerows. That would be a tragedy. LuvNewcastle Jul 2014 #32

No kidding. nt Xipe Totec Jul 2014 #13

My bet: Volusia Co. grand jury will no-bill the dad. Eleanors38 Jul 2014 #10

Cops wouldn't arrest him. MohRokTah Jul 2014 #14

If THEY don't, jury nullification is in the cards at trial. nt stevenleser Jul 2014 #15

agreed nt steve2470 Jul 2014 #26

Dad wasn't charged with anything, so no grand jury. LisaL Jul 2014 #70

I'm allowing some latitude. Eleanors38 Jul 2014 #104

I'd Rec this if it had a GRAPHIC warning. MohRokTah Jul 2014 #12

The subject line informed me that the image would be graphic. The word "graphic" alfredo Jul 2014 #44

I hope you meant to add a sarcasm sign 2pooped2pop Jul 2014 #53

I thought about the title, didn't alert MohRokTah Jul 2014 #56

must be me 2pooped2pop Jul 2014 #60

Don't know many people with PTSD, eh? MohRokTah Jul 2014 #61

yeah but they know how to read 2pooped2pop Jul 2014 #65

I know too many who might still click on this thread. MohRokTah Jul 2014 #67

right, it's a huge issue 2pooped2pop Jul 2014 #68

I'm not sure a Graphic tag will fit. Chan790 Jul 2014 #76

Good idea! eom MohRokTah Jul 2014 #81

Seriously? nt mimi85 Jul 2014 #90

"after dad got done with him" = GRAPHIC ChisolmTrailDem Jul 2014 #95

I know too many people that wouldn't get that. eom MohRokTah Jul 2014 #96

Maybe those folks customerserviceguy Jul 2014 #103

Works for me! zappaman Jul 2014 #16

Lucky this guy didnt have a gun on him davidn3600 Jul 2014 #17

really? your posts are truly amazing. and here a scum bag is raping a kid, and this is your comment seabeyond Jul 2014 #20

I think he is referring to the father Skittles Jul 2014 #28

i think he was referrring to the rapist. would be interesting for him to clarify. seabeyond Jul 2014 #40

I think Skittles is right BainsBane Jul 2014 #41

Actually now that I think about it...could be true for either one davidn3600 Jul 2014 #46

Being on the receiving end of edgineered Jul 2014 #63

ahhhh. lol. seabeyond Jul 2014 #71

Isn't it a good thing the rapist didn't shoot and kill the dad? pnwmom Jul 2014 #98

no. you do not get what i am saying pn. seabeyond Jul 2014 #99

A beer awaits you in Michigan, sir. Barack_America Jul 2014 #18

Not generally a fan of vigilante justice, but this looks righteous to me. GoneOffShore Jul 2014 #19

Catching him in the act kinda takes the edge off for me too. arcane1 Jul 2014 #30

Vigilante justice is premeditated, the father acted in the heat of the moment. alfredo Jul 2014 #45

Very important distinction. n/t nomorenomore08 Jul 2014 #57

That jerk is lucky Lithos Jul 2014 #21

This guy is going to have to be put in protective custody in prison.... Spitfire of ATJ Jul 2014 #22

Bravo to the Dad for his restraint... tallahasseedem Jul 2014 #23

I would like to pretend I am above that (I am ALMOST ALWAYS) etherealtruth Jul 2014 #25

ANY child Aerows Jul 2014 #31

You are right etherealtruth Jul 2014 #33

Two thumbs up to Dad! BillZBubb Jul 2014 #27

The teenager should be happy the dad did not kill him. nt. Rex Jul 2014 #34

Probably got more of the same when he got to the jail. lpbk2713 Jul 2014 #35

As a father I would have done the same thing; however.. the_sly_pig Jul 2014 #37

He was defending his family from an intruder. I don't think a jury would convict. alfredo Jul 2014 #48

Not every violent interaction requires arrest or being charged... All_Corners Jul 2014 #62

"on its face". Heh. n/t eggplant Jul 2014 #74

Funny without trying... All_Corners Jul 2014 #83

Dad isn't being charged with anything. LisaL Jul 2014 #75

You can bet the suspect is never going to forget this crime. Historic NY Jul 2014 #39

I bet he won't do that again. Throd Jul 2014 #42

Not sure I would have called the cops. AngryAmish Jul 2014 #43

A large percentage of prisoners were victims of abuse as children. alfredo Jul 2014 #51

Then what I would do then would be a mercy AngryAmish Jul 2014 #97

Good! butterfly77 Jul 2014 #49

If we could rely on courts to deal appropriately with rapists BainsBane Jul 2014 #50

Sure if the police caught the guy first, don't think there is a father alive dilby Jul 2014 #52

There definitely are fathers who wouldn't do this BainsBane Jul 2014 #55

... nomorenomore08 Jul 2014 #59

the father is also lucky that the teenager will live dembotoz Jul 2014 #54

Anyone who can read should have expected Jenoch Jul 2014 #58

No, from what has been reported, the perp is a neighbor, not a relative. LisaL Jul 2014 #69

A neighbor? Jenoch Jul 2014 #72

I guess he had them fooled. LisaL Jul 2014 #73

I get so angry when reading stories such as this. Jenoch Jul 2014 #78
