Neither Marv nor Pee Wee, while discredited by sex scandals, were rumoured to
have indulged their desires with underaged co-participants.  There are very avid
opinions both ways as to the truth of the allegations in Smith's case.  I
personally have strong opinions about child molesters and false accusers, so I
don't know what to think and prefer to leave judgement to the Almighty.  Jeff
Smith is said to be retired and living in Seattle.
