Sandusky Was "Teaching Boys How To Shower"

You know, I don't believe him, but his lawyer did make a VERY accurate statement:

“Some of these kids don’t have basic hygiene skills,” Rominger told the television station, presumably with a straight face throughout. “Teaching a person to shower at the age of 12 or 14 sounds strange to some people, but people who work with troubled youth will tell you there are a lot of juvenile delinquents and people who are dependent who have to be taught basic life skills like how to put soap on their body.”

This is completely true. Disgustingly true, in terms of the smell some of these kids go around with during the school day.

I find it hard to believe Sandusky was just teaching them to shower, while both were naked, but that statement is 100% accurate. We've had students who we've had to buy soap for just so they would shower after class, because they never do so at home. And even then, they didn't know what to do with the soap, so we had to explain it. Of course, we explained it with all of our clothes on, but you know...
 
This is true and I've heard that before. It's about as much of a hail mary as you can ask for though when it comes to people buying that as his reasoning.
 
St. Burna, that's got a nice ring to it. Other than it sounds like I set actual saints ablaze, but I digress.
 
You'd think it would be easier just to try to plead guilty to a lesser offence and get a lighter sentence out of it.
 
So wait a minute, what part of teaching a kid to shower includes "horse play" and snapping each other with towels? If he was simply teaching those less fortunate kids proper hygiene, where did all the other monkey business, THAT HE ADMITTED TO, come in to play?

He was acting like he was one of the kids (so he claims). Boys horse around in the showers all the time.

Yeah, I guess you could make a case for that. That being said however, even if we were to believe he was trying to teach these kids personal hygiene and was participating in the horsing around in doing so and that he is entirely innocent of actual peodophilia. The fact remains that his actions (pure as he'd like you to believe) are still incredibly creepy.
