Mike McQueary, the Penn State assistant football coach under fire for his reported lack of action in an alleged 2002 rape of a boy by Jerry Sandusky, said in an email to a former classmate that he stopped the assault in an athletic facility shower and discussed it with police.
In the email obtained by The Morning Call, McQueary wrote that he "did have discussions with police and with the official at the university in charge of police" following the alleged incident between Sandusky, a former Penn State assistant coach, and a boy.
McQueary also wrote that he "is getting hammered for handling this the right way or what I thought at the time was right."

So who is lying, the Grand Jury or McQueary?
So at what point when he stills sees this monster walking free does he not question what is going on at the university? If he is telling the truth to his friend, then this problem really does run deep. Probably right up to political offices.
Um...
I’ve got a pole for you POS.
Poor Mikey. Where's the sympathy for the kids who were, "getting nailed"?
Tell it the DA... If you can find him!
The grand jury adresses what was seen. It does not address whether it was stopped or not.
Assumptions were made.
The old saw about assume.
So...he went into that showe and made Sandusky stop? He took the boy to safety? Like to the police?
He talked with the police?
If he did those things, then he did what was right.
But he allegeldly says in the email...””I did stop it, not physically, but made sure it was stopped when I left that locker room.”
That, BTW, was not in the grand jury testimony. Here is the way that reads:
According to the grand jury report, the graduate assistant said he saw a boy, whose age he estimated at 10 years old, “being subjected to anal intercourse” by a naked Sandusky in a shower at the Penn State football building in March 2002. The graduate assistant left “immediately,” was “distraught” and called his father, according to the presentment. His father told him to leave the building and come to his home, according to the presentment.
According to the grand jury report, McQueary spoke with Head Coach Joe Paterno the day after the alleged incident and later met with athletic director Tim Curley and Gary Schultz, vice president for finance and business.
So, which is it?
It sounds like he is saying that he must have yelled at Sandusky and saw him stop.
That’s better than nothing, but if he then left the boy there...it was not enough, nnot by a long shot.
I do not care how “incredibly difficult” the decisions weere. Or how “fast” he had to make them. They should not have been difficult at all. if you see a 10 year old boy being raped by a full grown man, you stop it and you get the child away from danger.
He says also that he talked to police...apparently the campus police. That opens up a whole new can of worms. Why didn’t they do anything about this?
We already know that the football program basically turned a blind eye to it, as well as the admin. Did they get the campus police to do nothing?
This gets deeper and deeper.
That is not an assumption. That is fact as reported by the grand jury.
IOW...just like a parent barging in on their daughter or son having sex or getting too "intimate"...
Yeah. The interruption did "stop" the progression. But did he take custody of the kid? Or did he allow the assault to continue @ another location -- either that night or sometime else during the weekend and weeks and months and years to follow?
Well, if he did report it, and did discuss it with police I would seriously consider giving him a pass.
That would mean he did all that was within his power other than actually shooting the guy.
Aren’t we all pretty much in that same predicament with the ZERO now?
Wonder if anyone will link Sandusky to the DA’s disappearance.
Witnessing the press treatment of McQueery has made me distraught. I’d rush to his defense, but I need to check with my dad and coach first.
Post of the Day
The DA disappeared 5 years after declining to press charges. Why is there any connection?
Exactly...in other words, he saw it, they saw him and the action stopped. Then he left and called his Dad who told him to leave which he did...and then later talked to others.
He left the kid there to fend for himself and continue being abused by Sandusky.
I cannot comprehend this. He should have picked up the nearest thing resembling a baseball bat and gone in there and taken the child away from Sandusky and to a place of safety...like the police station and reported exactly what happened.
That is the only course that makes any sense.
Sandusky was naked in a shower and not “armed.” He was raping a little boy.
Disraught is understandable...but that should have turned immediately to determination to help. Instaed, it sounds like it turned to “flight.”
Gary Schulz was in charge of the campus police. His official title was SVP business and finance.
I think the Mr. McQueary may be stretchin the truth a bit but he might legally be truthful, for whatever that’s worth.
They just crossed the $100 mil threshold for THIS lawsuit.
Not to mention all the criminal charges that will result.
Campus police aren’t ‘real’ police. they keep everything ‘internal’.
