I have shared the facts with you, such as they are known. I have explained in detail what IS known. You make one phone call (and talk to people I probably know better than you) and want to act like you know as much as anyone else? Fine.

There are lots of reasons why people would not want to involve themselves. You have me telling you what I have, and confirming that Mary Christine and Rob Atkinson stand by their stories. You have me telling you that the musicians I know in the area all believe the substance of the allegations. I have not heard from one who doesn't. But you managed to confirm that no one at SC Guitars has talked to anyone at the courthouse willing to disclose information that isn't public. Fine.

Sure I forgive you for not "jumping to conclusions." The parents of the victims might not but I certainly do because I have nothing at stake. I'm only trying to help people get the picture, but you know the old line about leading a horse to water...
