And most shrinks would tell you the same thing, based on the criteria for pedophilia.<br /> <br />C) “While the jury is deliberating…” Why the distinction? The jury has been instructed, and has confirmed that they’re not viewing any media on the case. You’re just mentioning it to try to stir up some moral controversy that does not exist.<br /><br /><i>“I am not talking legal here, just moral responsibility.”</i><br /><br />We have a moral responsibility to make sure that people are safe from sick sadistic people like ayres. They need to know that the danger is out there and will not go away, even if ayres does. <br /><br />No one seems to want to discuss this stuff, but they need to be clear about how these predators operate, and this IS how they operate. <br /><br />I wish I had a nice Ivory Tower to sit in, where everything was happy, and I could make lofty commentary on the way things should be. Things aren’t the way they should be.

I looked at the McBride photos of nude young boys and I am of the opinion that it was porn. It was clear Doron Weinberg was going to do everything is his power to suppress the material.<br /><br />Secondly, it would not be irresponsible to make such an allegation. The jury is in deliberations and when Judge Freemen sent them off to deliberate she had again confirmed they are not reading newspapers, blogs, forums, etc. The jury agreed, <i>they have not.</i> Therefore, it has no bearing on the Ayres case to allege he may have shared porn <i>during this critical time.</i><br /><br />Also, you can say all doctors are bad, all doctors share porn, all doctors are terrible. <br /><br />When you study the cases of defamation, an individual must have been named, and thus prove harm. Issuing a blanket opinion about a "group" such as doctors without individually naming one doesn't amount to whole lot of beans!<br /><br />Roger Levin has been arrested. His medical lic. revoked. That is a true statement. Statements of facts are not defamatory.<br /><br />Absolute truth is an affirmative defense to free speech.<br /><br />In my case, my medical records were falsified, I wrote about it to every board the doctor was affiliated with (using her name), every Chief of Staff, Yelped (but removed as Yelp does that if someone complains).<br /><br />I spoke about it publicly (using her name), I wrote to government officials using an <i>individual</i> doctors name!<br /><br />I was never sued for defamation! I can prove it, it is the absolute truth.<br /><br />I think DS and the other victims have the right to state the facts and I appreciate very much when David Gross said he won't use the word "alleged."<br /><br />The phrase <i>"I think"</i> generally means I am of the opinion that... Americans are allowed to have opinion.<br /><br />Ok, so now I sound like Andy Rooney from 60 Minutes.......<br /><br />My message no need to tip-toe on egg shells, if it is the truth so speak it. If it is your opinion then so say it.The Patient Advocatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08780750241399470542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166908879185923782.post-46362360761731295692009-07-19T14:39:13.042-07:002009-07-19T14:39:13.042-07:00To Anonymous July 19 8:12 am:

I think he is part of a group of people - some of them involving doctors - who share child porn. One of them could be Menlo Park doctor Roger Levin, who was arrested for child porn and molesting boys in the 1990s as well as his female patients and possession of illegal substances.<br /><br />He got off with a slap of a wrist- a "work furlough" and the revocation of his medical license.<br /><br />Levin then went on to run the site of www.sfredbook.com- a place for prostitutes and johns. It has been reported that he had his own double secret forum on the site, where he bragged about having molested his own sons. <br /><br />The San Mateo Sheriff's office is looking for victims of Levin to come forward.

Surely the books would have swayed things.<br /><br />But I remain most disturbed that being abused by a person in power, especially in the medical profession, is automatically covered up by the doctor's peers. This happens in cases of malpractice as well.<br /><br />There has to be a better system and a way of prosecuting people who know and don't report especially if they are colleagues. <br /><br />The most disturbing thing of all to me is that there are apparently people of the jury discounting the evidence, in my eyes they too are guilty of complicity in harming the victims.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166908879185923782.post-75543410183568684012009-07-18T11:22:16.993-07:002009-07-18T11:22:16.993-07:00Jennifer:

Unfortunately, he has a few "issues" and simply did not want a public stigma attached to his life. <br /><br />I supported his decision; nonetheless, as a parent, I'm still paying the consequences of my guilt for not reporting Ayres. He used his authority to intimidate a naive single mother to accept his "neurological exam" as protocol in ruling out neurological dysfunction when assessing disabilities. <br /> <br />Although I am far from naive today, and know his justification was unwarranted, I have little peace of mind - but knowing his life is ruined and he is suffering (like all of his victims) allows me and my son some satisfaction.<br /><br />Perhaps our justice system is flawed on the inside, but I have faith in the "public eyes" on the outside where justice will prevail after all is said and done.<br /><br />Thanks again for all of your support, and especially to Victoria Balfour and her convictions to the cause.jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14772484425599267484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166908879185923782.post-14907133555536057932009-07-18T07:56:09.118-07:002009-07-18T07:56:09.118-07:00The nail picker juror brought a letter to the judg...The nail picker juror brought a letter to the judge earlier this week from her employer.
