Whatever. Trashing Freeh does not make Paterno any less responsible for what he did or did not do. I don’t care much for any of the people involved in covering for Sandusky and I hope they all face justice.

You don't seem to get the point. Freeh is now a private lawyer. He was hired by the poobahs at Penn State who wanted to scapegoat Paterno and protect themselves. He was paid a lot of money (taxpayer's money) at the direction of the poohbahs and he delivered what he was paid to deliver. It wasn't investigation. It seems to have been advocacy. Freeh's work does not make Paterno responsible for anything either.

Assuming that Paterno was ever guilty of anything at all, it is too late to punish him now, If he was innocent of anything, he ought not to have been punished for such an anything. Spanier, Curley, Schultz, and others are still available. Ignore the sideshow created by Spanier and the Penn State Poobahs. Focus on those still punishable. Then maybe they WILL all face justice. Courts cannot indict the dead.
