Interesing... Doubtful anything comes of it, but there are definitely some oddities in play.

I get a feeling that Schultz or Curley is going to flip and start giving out all the names and involvement on everyone who participated in the coverup including the most powerful man at Penn State.

Damn.

I have read that Sandusky started Second Mile in the late 70's. If he is a pedophile he did not just become one in the mid 90's. Hard to believe that Sandusky wasn't found out sooner.

After watching that video clip, it's seems like they are a cult. I can understand supporting/loving your coach, but it is like he is a God up there to those people. This will not end well for those that broke the law, as well as for their followership.

The word fanatic doesn't describe most fans these days.......it describes stupid and souless people that follow cult type leaders because of their thirst for entertainment.

Maybe, just maybe when more of this comes out many of these people will wake up disgusted and have the feeling of being robbed. Joe Paterno's legacy and everything it stood for was nothing but a charade.

I hope they take everyone down that was involved or turned a blind eye to this incident. Better yet, try them in Texas. That'll expedite the pending punishment from our Maker. Though living with the thoughts of doing nothing to help innocent boys as they were assaulted and sodomized by homosexual predators maybe far worse that any capital punishment that our legal arms could assess. How could you coach for 9 years after doing nothing? Inconceivable to me.

From the story linked by the OP:

"Months later, the laptop was found in the Susquehanna River without its hard drive, which was discovered later. It was too damaged to yield any information. On the fourth anniversary of his disappearance, investigators revealed that a search of his home computer yielded a history of Internet searches for phrases like “how to wreck a hard drive,” according to a report at the time in The Centre Daily Times."

Truer words have never been spoken....

Another case of child abuse by a priest in Pennsylvania. What seems to problem over there? Must have to do with a very cancerous culture.

Like everyone, I am flawed by the monstrous behavior of this person but it seems to be a way of life there. It is a suspension of disbelief to accept that he did not abuse children from the 70s to 90s? The man did not suddenly decide to start in the 90s after maintaining a "kiddie ranch" for nigh 20 years. Someone covered for him during that period as well.

To really cut out the cancer, they have to investigate the entirety of his association with children including the mouse trap "kiddie ranch" he created to lure them. Authorities there should expand the scope of fact finding to include talking to every young person that visited the place. What about people who managed the children on a regular basis? Why did they not notice anything? They need to do a major exhaustive excavation of this whole sordid mess. Who knew what when? It needs to involve the entire community. How can a monster of this magnitude carry-on this life and hide in plain site for nigh 30 years? Not possible unless a lot of people looked the other way. Accepted it as a way of life in which case a lot more people are involved in the practice.

He was not that important of a coach--a DC--that they would bend everything to suit him. Not saying DCs are not important.

Who else in the school was involved in the behavior? They refused to annoint him as heir-apparent for a reason. What was the reason? Why did the school give him a nice parachute when he retired? Why did he retire so young? Finally they can apply coercive means to compel confession. Use anything they can--his wife included. How in the world did she not know her husband was abusing children when their adopted son has come out and confessed that he also was a victim of his abuse? Again not possible.
