Letter to the Editor : Boeheim’s initial remarks offend abuse victims

 

As a childhood abuse survivor, I think that Jim Boeheim’s comments about Bobby Davis and his stepbrother were horrendous, in light of the new evidence. Frankly, I am not sure if he should be fired or not, but what I do know is that victims of sexual abuse should be able to have a voice to speak up against their abusers. 
I want to commend Chancellor Nancy Cantor for firing Bernie Fine and standing up for the victims. She has given the victims a voice. It makes me feel proud to be a student of Syracuse University. Abuse should happen nowhere and to nobody, no matter whom you are.
