On the other hand, trail errors happen often on both sides, but are innocuous at the appellant level and doesn't reverse a judgement.<BR/><BR/>More over, Ayres has a right to an affirmative defense and no one should be taking pride in denying him the constitutional provisions of our legal system or take exception to the problems in the Spector trial. Ayres case may not be proven. <BR/><BR/>Going to trial is Ayres best option at his age; prison is a lousy place to spend a peaceful death in old age and a little local anxiety in the community can be manageable. In prison you are managed by the inmates and the prison guards and staff; you manage very little even if you can be a recluse or in protective custody.<BR/><BR/>A trail will do more to improve the reporting and investigation system that many have complained about. Not going to trail will likely result in more manipulation and failures to investigate fairly and level the playing field.<BR/>After all, everyone should be worried about the family secrets that are passed over daily where family cover up molestations by family members and neighbors...!<BR/><BR/>Opening the process through trial exposes the violators that are widespread and underreported.Jack Kirkpatrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10138321960813176728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166908879185923782.post-8306331933430956242009-02-13T10:38:00.000-08:002009-02-13T10:38:00.000-08:00"Dr." Ayres is probably going to wait unitl May 10..."Dr." Ayres is probably going to wait unitl May 10th and then fire Wernberg.

[...] He told me that none of these experiments on September 3rd would be before the jury! THAT'S A DISCOVERY VIOLATION!"<BR/><BR/>There it is. Fidler states the defense has perpetrated a discovery violation; something Weinberg has from virtually day one accused the prosecution of doing.<BR/><BR/>------<BR/><BR/>Love it. Judge Fidler is getting more and more irritated with Whineberg/Slimeberg. Wonder if "Dr" Ayres is following this case. Makes me wonder if he's starting to think about that plea deal.

Deadly boring at first( Ayres sounds very depressed), the only time he comes to life is when he talks about boys who lie to psychiatrists. What does he use as an example?? Does he say they lie about sex and drugs?? Nope... The creepy example he gives is.. surprise, surprise,Masturbation.<BR/><BR/>In the only section of the tape where he comes to life and starts to laugh hysterically like a goofy 13 year old, he tells his colleagues: ".. The truth is adolescents lie... you can come back two or three months.. or they'll volunteer'Oh, by the way you know when I told you that I masturbate, I said I did but I really don't, I know it's normal but I can't because I came home one night when I was 13 and my father was having sex with this neighbor lady and I heard them and I saw them and it was terrible and after that I haven't been able to masturbate since then...(Here, Ayres is beside himself with glee and chortles and is laughing so hard he can't finish his sentences) So even a thing like a kid saying he masturbates you think that's gonna be, oh well, that's nor-sometimes they'll lie if they're intelligent."<BR/><BR/>--On the tape this guy comes across as either depressed or manic.

Judge Kathleen McKenna of the Superior Court of the County of San Mateo signed the "no practice" order in response to a request by Deputy Attorney General Lawrence Mercer, on behalf of the Medical Board. Dr. Ayres advised the court that he did not object to entry of the order. The board's request was filed pursuant to Penal Code section 23 which permits a licensing agency, in the interest of protecting the public, to make an appearance before the court in a criminal action against its licensee and to recommend that the licensee be prohibited from practicing medicine as a condition of release on bail or probation. Medical Board Executive Director Dave Thornton stated, "The mission of the Medical Board is to protect healthcare consumers. We work diligently to achieve our mission by vigorously enforcing the Medical Practice Act."<BR/><BR/>On April 6, 2007 Ayres was arrested by the San Mateo Police Department and charged with 14 felony counts of lewd and lascivious acts with a child under the age of 14.<BR/><BR/>The Medical Board is continuing to pursue further action on this matter.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166908879185923782.post-79365007744092569072009-01-04T13:40:00.000-08:002009-01-04T13:40:00.000-08:00Good points, anonymous !!!

It's even on the same side of the street. You know what they say about perps - they always return to the scene of the crime.<BR/><BR/>Ayres settled because he got scared when four other victims of his - including Greg Hogue, who had documentation that he had complained about Ayres back in 1987- were found and said they would testify. As soon as the boy's lawyer in the civil suit handed Ayres' lawyer the slip of paper with the other names of the victims, and said "Ask Ayres if he's ever heard of these boys ?" it was game over. Man, you should have seen how fast he backed down when he saw the names of the other victims. It was almost comical....he was scared out of his mind that the details of the molestation and would ruin his career. What he told his medical colleagues after the civil suit was that he was paying the victim not because he was guilty but out of charity- he wanted to pay for his rehab and therapy. Yeah, right, fork over $400,000 to someone you didn't do anything to? And who claims in the deposition that he has no memory of the boy whatsoever, even though the boy was a patient of his for five years ? Why would anyone pay money to someone he doesn't remember?He was cooked then, and he's cooked now. I bet he pleads guilty.

I was kicked off jury duty three years ago by Judge Foiles for asserting my opinion that a medical expert is on the stand receiving somewhere in the range of $3,500 to $5,000 for fees. This expert witness will say what he is hired to say. I was let go. Now last week I received notice after three years that I am summoned to jury duty on January 26, 2009 at 8:30 a.m. I pondered what it what take me to be convinced that Dr. Ayres is guilty. Really as a juror all you would have to do is Google earth his old home on Oakdale in Hillsborough and from high atop the satellite you see the swimming pool in the backyard. He sold the home for about 2 million to pay off a victim. He now lives in a rental whcih is owned by an asian person in San Jose who most likely does not watch his case or read this blog. I have known many older people including my own parents who did scale down from a larger house in retirement - but never to a rental. It clearly was not by choice that Solveig packed the rooms of her children and herself to move to a rental! No person of innocence would give up everything they own to throw away the nest egg of retirement if they were not guilty of all said crimes. I would rot in prison like Hurricane Carter before I would settle a case I protested my innocence to. This is really all it would take for me as a juror to be convinced of guilt in the Dr. Ayres case.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166908879185923782.post-6652061785607768712009-01-04T13:06:00.000-08:002009-01-04T13:06:00.000-08:00Link to victim's comment:http://www.sfgate.com...Link to victim's comment:<BR/><BR/>http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2007/04/07/MNGTTP4OGV1.DTL&hw=William+Ayres&sn=004&sc=810Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166908879185923782.post-47020267898742358432009-01-04T13:05:00.000-08:002009-01-04T13:05:00.000-08:00Here's a comment from the Chronicle by a victim wh...Here's a comment from the Chronicle by a victim who signs his name:<BR/><BR/>I was a patient of Dr. Ayers in 1973/74 In my mind I have no doubt that he committed all of the allegations and many more including acts upon myself. I gave deposition in the civil case and I have no monetary concerns in this case, and i do not feel that any male would volentarily make up stories of homosexual molestations, because of the connotations. I am 50 years old and the experience is long behind me. My father was the pediatrician that referred both myself and Mr. Abrams to Dr. Ayers, so I have quite a bit of background knowledge in this case. My only regret is that I have never been able to confront Ayers personally on his actions. If anyone out there still doubts that Ayers is guilty of these accusations let me put your minds at rest.

"innocent until proven guilty" - as his attorney said, Ayres's habit of giving full-body physical exams to (only) boys under 15 is just his unique method of "treating the whole person" This caring man has been "misunderstood" and his totally innocent, completely above-board medical exams have been recast in the minds of those three dozen scheming and unprincipled former patients as sexual abuse! It is well-established in child psychiatry that "identifying physical issues" is a prerequisite to therapy. I'm sure that all those kids had pediatricians, but Ayres believes, if you want something done right, you've got to do it yourself! And as for the fact that he never made any notes about these exams in his records - well, he's just a bit sloppy about his record-keeping. You're right, "trained", I'm sure that a sensible jury will see through the malicious lies his ex-patients have concocted, and acquit.

The defense attorney may remain silent or probe those that testify for weaknesses in the case or may ask questions that give him clues on how to proceed. Although the preliminary testimony may be used later in a trial to test discrepancies, it still does not meet the standards of a trial where guilt must be found beyond a reasonable doubt! That is what a trial is for - to an sewer those questions and vet those that testify. This may be a bench trial where the judge decides or a jury trial to decide guilt to innocence. <BR/><BR/>Plea bargains also unfold at various points and are not necessarily initiated by the defense. This usually occurs in private, sometimes the chamber of the judge during pretrial hearings. Very little of what you see occurs in open court. I have no doubt that there may have been an offer or offers and even counteroffers. The defense attorney must convey all offers to his client and Dr. Ayres is the one that must decide, Besides once an acceptance is made a settlement agreement must be approved by the judge and often times by the victim or in the case of a minor by his parents/guardian. Plea bargains are usually not good deals and they are do not indicate that the defense attorney has a losing case, au contraire, it may mean that the DA has a weak case. PG's are ways of moving cases though the courts and clear them efficiently - it really is not about guilt because the settlement may be something less than the behavior that actually occurred. Lastly, PB's usually forfeits a defendant's right to an appeal and I would never recommend that happen to just as I believe a person should remain silent or make the best deal he can, if he is guilty.<BR/><BR/>We'll just have to see how the case unfolds, but based upon the ages of the cases, I think a trial by jury ought to occur and test the reliability of the victims statements, inconsistencies, memory, documents, counter testimony, etc. to see where the facts may lay. I also want to see how all of the appeals are settled even if that is carried to the USSC. District appellant court decisions don't always measure up and sometimes differ from district to district who are not bound by another courts decision.<BR/><BR/>The importance of this case is not the defense of Dr. Ayres. It is vetting openly the problem of pedophilia out there and advertise the current pedophilia problems committed by those that have yet to come to our public attention. This is especially true as many family members have a secret and inappropriate behavior between children by their fathers, grandfathers, uncles, cousins, brothers and even the feminine equivalent (and the next door neighbor or family friend). Let's not forget the teachers and other professions that have overstepped their bounds - it is in this area that is getting the best attention at the moment). I want the DA to prove his case - lots of publicity and let it all hang out will does more for victims not yet acknowledged!<BR/><BR/>And for those that speculate that I am a victim of past untoward behavior by an adult, that answer is "No." <BR/><BR/>I am or was a mandated reporter in my profession and certainly reported my suspicions to CPS or law enforcement. I do know with certainty that the "family secret" is a terrible phenomena that must be addressed in the court and we have not even come close to holding family members accountable and sending them to prison and later into rehabilitation problems. The district attorney and courts know this is a problem, but have been reluctant to sometimes act and families don't what to go there or lose a "breadwinner" or ruin another child's life by the stigma that follows the family around until death "doth us them" part!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166908879185923782.post-58938830779055842702009-01-01T05:30:00.000-08:002009-01-01T05:30:00.000-08:00I wonder if some of the people who are sort of def...I wonder if some of the people who are sort of defending Ayres here have had some similar experiences in their childhood - or they know someone who has abused kids, and yet don't want to admit it. Just a theory... All of Ayres' colleagues, who know him, believe he did it, and think he's going to ask for a plea bargain.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166908879185923782.post-20816709787859033032009-01-01T03:50:00.000-08:002009-01-01T03:50:00.000-08:00To the second to last poster here, who says:After ...To the second to last poster here, who says:<BR/><BR/>After all, a psychiatrist is a medical doctor trained as a general practitioner , but GP's later may become specialized <BR/><BR/>Why do i get the feeling you didn't read the reports of the hearing in August 2007, when the judge decided there was enough evidence to proceed to trial ?<BR/><BR/>Since when is it normal for a child psychiatrist to masturbate boys to ejaculation in a therapy session, ( first applying lotion to them and pretending that it's medicinal)and then to get angry with them when they refuse to submit to his "exams" anymore, and tell them there's "something wrong" with them?<BR/>Since when does a child pscyhiatrist give repeated "proctology" exams to young boys as Ayres did repeatedly to the same boys, over and over and over ? You know damn well he was never trained to do that back in Boston?<BR/><BR/>Why, as one victim reported here, who was the son of a respected pediatrician, who had already been examined, did Ayres repeatedly give him "physicals" and attempt to masturbate him over and over and over? <BR/>Why did Ayres show weird drawings of genitalia to boys? Why did he give repeated physicals at every session for months to a boy, whose pediatrician had already found nothing?<BR/>Why did Ayres buy thousands upon thousands of dollars for these victims, even taking some out on the weekends to buy present? And never billing the parents?<BR/>Why did Dr. Ayres say in a civil deposition THAT HE HAS NEVER ASKED A BOY TO TAKE HIS CLOTHES OFF IN A SESSION, and yet when an alarmed mother contacted his partners to say Ayres was making her son strip, Ayres assured his partners it was a common practise to give "physicals"?<BR/><BR/>Why is it that Ayres never recorded these physicals? Why did he never give a single physical to a girl?<BR/><BR/>AND most important of all, WHY DID AYRES' LAWYER NOT LONG AGO INQUIRE ABOUT PLEA BARGAINS FOR HIS CLIENT?<BR/><BR/>All i can think of is that you have not been following the case very closely at all. Go down to the San Mateo Court house and look at the civil suit documents against him in 2003.<BR/>And oh, yes, if Dr. Ayres didn't molest that boy in the civil suit, how come he settled and paid money? Was it because other victims had come forward with even more damning stories who were going to testity?<BR/>You sound like a defensive doctor who is uncomfortable that one of your own would be capable of that. It happens. Someone who trained with Boston was also convicted of the same thing ( not nearly as many victims were found.)<BR/><BR/>Believe me, if Ayres' lawyer is talking about a plea deal, he knows he's got a losing case.<BR/><BR/>But I think no matter how much evidence there is, you just don't want to see it. That's your prerogative. Who knows, perhaps you had something tragic happen to you as a kid, and don't want to face it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
