If it had been your 4 year old girl in the shower, would you still be defending the actions of these people?

Didn't see this as i had left work already.
I would be mad at Sandusky.
It's like if my wife cheated on me. Would i be mad at him? No, he might not have known she was married. Would I be mad at her? Yes.

Have you ever had to talk to a small child about being abused?

Have you had to sit in on an interview when they describe what the sick SOBs do to them?

How they cried over and over for them to stop

How they think its their fault because this was done to them

How they wish they could stop having nightmares about it

Why they never told anyone because the SOB told them that they would kill their parents, so they keep quite to protect them

When you get home at night, you huge and kiss your kids and thank God that they are safe and nothing has happened to them.

**** em and anyone that sits by and watches it happen and does nothing to help them

I dont have a ****ing bit of sympathy for them

Summed it up perfectly.

My question would be why did they meet at the house? If Jo Pa was a clueless old man, then why not just make a phone call on Saturday? No, he knew it was a bad deal and they worked up a plan to cover the universities reputation. The GA got a nice job, the rapist kept his office and no one was the wiser. Unfortunately, Sandusky didn't stop and found a pool of potential victims at a localhigh-school and continued his attacks for another 6 years. Had Jo Pa, McCreery, Curly (or the janitor in 2000) or anyone else called the police in March 2002, who knows how many crimes could have been prevented.

This is so much more than we know about I think. The cover up is widespread.

I know in some states it is required of everyone to report child abuse, is that the case in Pennsylvania?

Yes but the law is pretty poorly worded and basically says you have to report to your supervisor who then has to report to the authorities.

The man has lost all my respect since Monday night. Everyday something else comes out. It wouldnt surprise me if we learn alot more about Penn St. from the 80s and 90's.Paterno saying we do it right and better was a load of crap. We may find out there was even more corruption and wrong doing going on while he was preaching at all of us.

I feel that way towards the cowards who didn't report it, and Sandusky.

It's more than a little insulting to see so many people sitting in ivory towers on this issue.

Keep up the good work, Counselor.

Way to go, man. You're doing a terrific job of defending him. You're right, he didn't rape the kids himself. He just sat back and provided the rapist access to the place where he raped kids. But, at least he told the AD who he knew would do nothing about it. What a stand up guy, that Paterno.

Paterno worked with the SOB for a long, long time. I'd imagine he knows about stuff before the incident the GA oversaw.

You serious? So, you could have pedophiles in your basement with daily rapes occuring, but shouldn't be held accountable since you didn't cause any harm by allowing it?

That's an odd thought process.

He provided the rapist a place? Paterno was the one who gave Sandusky emeritus status and negotiated Sandusky's retirement?

"Paterno runs Penn State"--right, I forgot.

Mandatory Reporters of Child Abuse and Neglect: Summary of State Laws

Assuming JoePa does not qualify as one of the professions required to report, it appears it would be entirely voluntary.

I've always kind of felt this was kind of little crap. I wouldn't even bother with this if I was prosecuting this case. I think you look at hammering these people with conspiracy charges. As I've said several times on here, they could absolutely sustain conspiracy indictments on all of these guys, but they simply don't have the balls to do it.

No. There are thousands of people living with, married to or related to people doing disgusting things under their noses.

I sincerely hope you are never on a jury.
