aog has been admonished. Time to stop making a meal of it and move on.
//when I was 8 years old, I was very shy, so I am unsure what I would have done.//
^I think what Mikey said there has a lot of truth in it. I can imagine a lot of children finding themselves in a similar situation wouldn’t know what to do – and never forget that filthy horrible predators like this creature have ways of worrying children into silence.

Thankfully, nothing this bad happened to my son, but he had a PE teacher who was eventually outed as a paedophile. Once it all came out, my son mentioned that the teacher regularly got all the boys to strip down to their pants to be examined by him.
When we asked my son why he didn't tell us, he couldn't say. Maybe because it was the same for them all, apart from a couple of them who had it worse.
Nasty scum. He had us all fooled - not just the boys.

When I was at school at the ages of 14-16, in the 1960's, our PE Teacher used to line us boys up against the wall bars, and he, and another Teacher would walk down the line, looking down our white PE shorts, to see if we had our underpants on underneath.
You weren't allowed to wear underpants under your shorts, but some boys wore Speedo-type bathers instead, which were allowed.
I never felt comfortable when this was going on, but the PE Teacher and his "friend" were largish chaps and we all just put up with it. We would have had a clout around the head, if we didn't agree. This was a hard school, with over 1000 boys from all the surrounding Council Estates attending.
Quite why the PE Teacher thought it appropriate to have the assistance of the Welsh (language) Teacher to assist him in this strange ritual, I shall never know.
Nothing else went on....that was it, although the PE Teacher sometimes used to pile into the showers after Rugby with us boys, "to save water" ....in Wales !
Of course, I now realise what was going on, but I didn't really understand at the time. Us boys just put up with it and moved on I suppose.
I am sure that that sort of things doesn't happen now, but those kind of stories were not uncommon in the 1960's.

from the latest news, if this is the case why wasn't it obvious he shouldn't be trusted with children.
" Bennell will be sentenced on Monday and will be produced from custody to attend the hearing.
It was the fourth time he had been found guilty of abusing boys.
The jury was told he had previously received three jail sentences in the UK and in the US."

If you watch the statements made by the boys, now men, involved. I think that it finally answers any criticism that could have been aimed at them, as to why they didn't fight back. I think they have been extraordinarily brave in coming forward, especially considering the ordeal that they would been put through, by Bennell's QC

Emmie....I understand that Bennell has cancer, so he won't be long for this world. But in many ways, this isn't really about Bennell. He was a proven and convicted paedophile long before this latest case was brought.
It was the boys/men having their day in Court, and being believed and respected. The rest of their lives can now begin.
