I've heard folks bashing ESPN for their handling of this story but it seems to me that Schwartz should be commended for bringing it to light. The first victim obviously trusted him a great deal and it's significant that the brother felt comfortable coming forward. It's not easy to get victims to talk about their abuse, let alone victims who have kept their pain a secret for many years. Seems to me like the folks who broke this story are good people who did good reporting.
