He's due to appear in Federal Court tomorrow, so he will have to come out of his hole soon.

Nor from his accusers.


Based on this update, you won't hear directly from the boy involved because he is dead:

http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/exclusive-alleged-dennis-hastert-sex-abuse-victim-named/story?id=31530828

The boy's sister is speaking out now and says she tried to do so for years, but the story was ignored until now. The sister is not "Individual A."



I didn't follow that link, but read another blurb... that poor guy. Seriously, when are Republicans going to clean their filthy house?

According to a news report I heard today, there are now three known victims:
A) Individual A
B) the guy who died in 1995
C) another guy found by the Chicago Sun-Times who has spoken with the FBI

Almost nothing else would warrant such a payoff.



Agreed. Most of the time you are better off telling people what happened instead of letting them speculate the worst. In this case, the speculation of the worst seems to be what actually happened.

Yuck. And Hastert was a very high rated "family values" guy. Sheesh.


Yep.

I knew it was being sandusky.

There is nothing worse. It certainly wasn't a hit/murder, affairs, lovechild. etc

7:29 again with a clarification: the alleged victim named by his sister today can't be "Individual A," because the indictment said Individual A was a victim of Hastert and is currently living.
