because the Feds are turning over this rock again.
Savitz was involved with Sandusky and The Second Mile. He was also a prominent Democratic donor. From what I can tell though, this will be an equal opportunity political scandal. Rendell and Corbett may have covered it up.
Greg Bucceroni is a name being floated as a victim who is talking to the Feds.
Google some of this shite if you want to descend into the lowest rungs of humanity. Apparently, there were many prominent people from all walks of life involved either directly or as someone who covered it up. I don't know who they can catch and what they can prove, but it could be extensive.
I hope they find everyone of these perverts and but them under the jails. I am waiting to see if the investigation gets shut down from above. The MSM has the story now and may have the stones to investigate too.
The Double Life Of Eddie Savitz(4/3/1992)
<snip>
But the 50-year-old Savitz lived a double life, authorities say.
The man whom Segal and other business associates knew as a quietly efficient insurance actuary, also lived the sordid life of a sexual deviate and fetishist who paid teen-age and younger boys for their dirty underwear, used socks and feces, as well as other sexual favors, police say, and is now dying of AIDS.

Authorities say that while Savitz had been indulging his weird fantasies for as long as 20 years, using boys whose older brothers had dealt with him, he managed to balance his two seemingly irreconcilable existences.
<snip>
But at lunch time, in the evenings, in the middle of the night, on weekends, according to police and interviews with some of his young clients, Savitz indulged his fetishes behind the door with 10 locks that guarded the fetid precincts of his luxury apartment in the exclusive Wanamaker House on Rittenhouse Square.
The boys who went there told of the stench of human feces and soiled underwear, which Savitz allegedly collected in wholesale lots. The smell invaded the hallway beyond the door and was beginning to alarm other tenants.

Our species is a walking contradiction, capable of so much greatness and so much horror.
Ugh, I need about 6 Excedrin's to get rid of the headache just thinking about this is going to bring on.

(17,111 posts)It was a culture of adoration built around one person. That person happened to be the head coach of the football team. The adoration then was transferred to the entire football team.
The coach refused to stop the abuse of kids because he didn't want anything to reflect badly on PSU or his team.
While there have been other coaches with this adoration and football programs that are worshipped, any sanctions because of their errors pale in comparison to what was allowed by the FB coach. Any school that allowed this in any department or program should be hammered.
Kids who are abused never get over it. It changes lives forever and creates problems that some can never overcome.
PSU can rebuild their football program and forget what occurred as people are wont to do. PSU, the students, and those connected to the university ARE NOT VICTIMS! If you think they are, I strongly suggest that you talk to someone who has been abused or someone who works with them. That may put football, sanctions and everthing else in perspective.
