agreed, Nina. In this day and age if somebody alerts you about a sexual abuse allegation against an “un-named physician” on your campus and you tell them to play it straight up and then never see or ask (!) about a follow-up report, you are an effing idiot with your fingers in your ears singing lalalala.

It is my understanding that (unless an Alford plea or a plea of nolo contendere is permitted) the defendant has to admit to the facts underlying the criminal charge. Just saying he pleads guilty isn't enough. But that's a non-professional understanding, I've never practiced criminal law. I didn't watch, so I have no idea if he admitted to the factual allegations underlying the crimes charged. | |||

Puh. Decertify if they won't resign. | |||

Ummmm... if I were Nassar's lawyer, I would appeal the sentence all the way to The Supreme Court, arguing that Judge Aquilina was biased and did not even try to appear objective and impartial. I'm not sayin' that he doesn't deserve every minute of his sentence.

That bothered me too, pj. Curious what others think.

I heard the sentencing and all I could think is whether what she said could be grounds for an appeal.

There are lots of articles agreeing with you. (Me as well.) | |||

Here was your original justification for that:
Except that he'd already left. Ten months before you made that statement. So had the Chairman, and the Vice Chairman, and the Treasurer, two months before you made that statement. So, having been entirely wrong about whether senior management would leave, you've moved on to the rest of the board members. Personally, I think they should resign. It doesn't look to me like they discharged their duties responsibly. My guess is that some or all of them probably will resign. But, that really has nothing to do with decertification. Even the New York Times opinion piece that you told me to read (even though I'd already read it) didn't recommend decertification as one of its five recommendations. You took a position, and now you're going to defend it to the death, even as it makes less and less sense. But, thank goodness, at least you finally seem to be saying that there's no need to decertify if all the remaining board members leave. Unless the next step in your analysis is that all the remaining employees and the janitors have to leave, too. | |||
