DEVELOPING: Philly Columnist Conlin "Retires" On Sexual Molestation Allegation

((HT: NBC10 Philadelphia))

According to his paper, the Daily News he did that instead of "resigning..." in the wake of a reported investigative story by Nancy Phillips claiming allegations of child molestation...

Here's the link to the Deadspin piece...

More when we know more...

But, in the interim, here's Conlin accepting a Lew Klein Award at Temple back in October of this year...

The HQ had one run-in with Conlin in our time... actually, it was more of a shocking sidle...

We were at an Atlanta Braves game as they were losing to the Phillies. In the 7th inning, the young interns would bring trays of ice cream by for the working media along press row. Conlin spotted the tray and gave the girl who handed it to him a look like he was going to devour the entire thing- and the arms attached.

The intern couldn't have been more frightened and Conlin could not have been more anticipatory in his dessert-based glee...

More when we know more...

1645 UPDATE: We know more...

The Phillips piece is out...
One of the four is allegedly a niece who is now a prosecutor. She wanted to bring these accusations to light, some of which are almost 40 years old, to bring attention to the issue of statutes of limitations for the crime...

This is all Class-A creepy... and the Phillips piece is an equally-creepy must-read...
