True. Maybe someone will eventually.
It is a public issue but I'm hoping that we, as followers of Christ, will believe in him first and let the process take place. And if my pleadings have given the impression that I would ever justify these potential actions, nothing could be further from the truth. And I find the suggestions that some have made that it's in any way whatsoever the girl's fault, to be repulsive. Scotty's situation when the age difference was 15 to 22 is another story. But 16 and 47? The girl couldn't have an ounce of fault...if it's true.
I've been involved with a case where a man was falsely accused and every ounce of public information was against him. But when everything was uncovered, he was vindicated. But the man went through hell, lost everything including his family for a good while, but the things said about him will never go away.
