They are picking on this lawyer because they think he is a cocky idiot who has labeled the accusers as liars. He is doing what an attorney is supposed to do but calling children, who may be victims, liars has rubbed people the wrong way. People are angered by the claim that these children and their parents had nothing better to do than to pretend to be abused and to try and accuse (and con) Sandusky.
The fact that news outlets have even reported this made me roll my eyes. I don't know this lawyer (I haven't been playing close attention to this story recently), but folks seem to be taking the focus off Sandusky and keep going to those around him.

Sandusky was smiling in all of the footage I saw yesterday. As I recall from an old Maddox post, that's a sure sign of a pedo.

Fair enough.

It just irks me when the person who SHOULD be getting the heat (Sandusky) take a back seat to any- and everyone surrounding him/her.

I guess I can attribute it to the 24-hour news cycle (outlets need SOMETHING to fill columns), but it doesn't make me roll my eyes any less.

Maybe I haven't been paying close enough attention, but that trial seems to have gone by remarkably fast.

I think it was because there was not a lot of rebuttal from the defense, the defense had less witnesses I think(?), and Pervert Man didn't take the stand in his own defense like his lawyer said he would in opening arguments.

Because if he had, the Commonwealth would have called the adopted son as a rebuttal witness. No one knew about his claims when the trial started and when the defense attorney said Sandusky would take the stand.

This is the part of the law that I like and learned from SVU. Something about "opening the door."

That happens a lot though doesn't it? Where the original plan is to have the defendant take the stand in their defense, but after testimony a change of plans for whatever reason is needed?
