What kind of man is McQueary to let a child get raped in his relatively immediate vicinity and do NOTHING, not even tell his father, until several days had passed?
...incorrect...he told his father the night of the occurence...it was Paterno that waited several days to phone Curley...
As a result, I do not believe that authorities were ever able to identify thst victim.
...actually, they made minimal, if any, effort to do so...
Paterno reported skeptically to the campus police and the campus authorities per his contract.
...again, incorrect...Paterno reported, skeptically or otherwise, to Curley alone, not to the campus police...
It is a while since last I looked at this matter on the internet while contending with folks here. It is entirely possible that some of my recollections are faulty. My recollection is that the incident was on a Friday night during the annual Easter break and that McQueary told no one until he told his father on Sunday and asked dad what he should do. If we have dueling recollections, there we are. If you have a reference to McQueary having told dad on the night of the incident, I will defer to you on that.
My recollection is that Paterno was in his office on the Monday when McQueary told him, McQueary told dad on Sunday, asking what he should do. Dad told him to report what he had witnessed and McQueary, instead of going to the police, prosecutor or campus police officials, went to Paterno instead. Paterno then, I had thought, called Curly promptly. By then, delay was no longer an issue. It was no longer possible to identify the child victim.
Sandusky was not going to flee the jurisdiction. The prosecution can obtain the right to arrest a Sandusky either by an arrest warrant signed by a judge or by presentment before and indictment by a grand jury, either of which requires only a finding of probable cause (It is more rather than less likely that the proposed defendant committed the crime in question and that what was done was in fact a crime.
I do not doubt for a moment that the campus police and campus authorities made only minimal effort, if any, to identify the victim.
