McQueary would eventually win a multi-million dollar lawsuit against Penn State, even though he never reported witnessing the shower incident to the Police.
McQueary’s own Father, and the Father's lawyer, advised Mike McQueary not to report it to the Police.
There is also the secondary issue of the testimony of Penn State's on-staff chief legal counsel.
The three men going to jail discussed this issue with her on multiple occasions, while under the impression that they had a lawyer-client relationship with her, and that she was their advocate.
The moment the state of Pennsylvania began to hint that Penn State executives might face criminal charges, Penn State's chief legal counsel instantly made a deal with prosecutors to testify against the men who sought her legal advice.
No charges were ever filed against the Penn State chief legal counsel, and the three convicted men vigorously denied parts of the chief counsel's testimony.
In addition, the two guys who got longer sentences made plea deals and testified against the Penn State President, who was convicted at trial for a misdemeanor, not a felony.
I'm not going to argue any of the questions about the moral responsibility of the three convicted men.
But legally, these three convictions are a steaming pile of crap.
‘The three men going to jail discussed this issue with her on multiple occasions, while under the impression that they had a lawyer-client relationship with her, and that she was their advocate.’
well, you know what they say; ignorance is no excuse...
