bernie fine
they can take him to civil court. but that's it. unless the Feds go after him.
Fox
A New York prosecutor says he cannot bring charges against a former Syracuse University assistant basketball coach but find that two men who accused him of sexual abuse are credible.
A federal probe is ongoing into the accusations against fired coach Bernie Fine, but Onondaga County District Attorney William Fitzpatrick says he won't pursue a state case.
Three men have accused Fine of molesting them when they were boys.
Hall of Fame Coach Jim Boeheim ,who is still being questioned about what he might know related to the claims, at first defended his long-time assistant and said the accusations were about making money. Victims' advocates called for him to resign; he later apologized to the accusers.
Accusations from two former ballboys happened too long ago to be prosecuted.
Fine has denied the abuse allegations. He was fired Nov. 27.
