“Honorary Board Members” of a charity seldom have any day-to-day contact with it. I would imagine Arnold Palmer alone is on about forty zillion “Honorary Boards.”

That list is just more people that Sandusky betrayed.

Honorary board members are liable? My experience is that they are often just names on a piece of paper.

Not liable, but probably under investigation. There are allegations that boys were tied to donations.

Had Joe Paterno outed Sandusky as a pederast
fifteen years ago none of this would have happened

Instead JoPa enabled the Pederasty.

I thought they were investigating donors, not honorary board members.

When is Hollywood going to make this into a movie sympathetic to Sandusky? (A brave pioneer for intergenerational “love”.)

"When is Hollywood going to make this into a movie sympathetic to Sandusky?"

They could get homo Ian McKellen to play Sandusky...kind of looks like him anyways. Of course, it would have to be filmed offshore so Roman Polanski could offer his inspired direction. I always though Joe Pesci kind of looked like Paterno, but I'm not sure he'd want to be part of this project.

From the second mile website...

“The most recent reports we’ve read this past weekend state that Mr. Sandusky met the alleged victims through The Second Mile. To our knowledge, all the alleged incidents occurred outside of our programs and events. However, we are encouraging anyone with information regarding this investigation to contact investigators from the Office of Attorney General at 814-863-1053 or Pennsylvania State Police at 814-470-2238.”

Is the State of Pennsylvania really going to do it this time, really investigate - for real - and then really prosecute ?

And it would be nice to know the FULL extent of EVERY SINGLE PERSON who KNEW WHAT WAS GOING ON. Inside Law Enforcement, inside the Government, any other universities or football programs, etc., etc.

It would be nice to get the full rundown on any PIMPING at all that was going on. We’re gonna have to actually investigate though, folks.

You should be a casting director!

Grahm Spainer, recently fired Penn State President is a high profile sex expert. He has written many books and articles about “changing sexuality” in modern society, and has been sued for being a gay rights activist. Google him. The MSM is NOT reporting the MBLA connection here. Spainer was an “expert” on gale male swinging, but the MSM are blaming football for the scandal instead of the gay rights agenda and the Lavendar Mafia which is where the blame squarely rests.

If that means I get to cast those involved off a bridge over a deep gorge, I would happily accept.

I was wondering the same thing. Interesting that nobody on the right has anything to say about the Boy Scouts and the Sandusky/Penn State ‘troubled youth’ charity.

I read this:

http://www.thenonprofittimes.com/article/detail/few-officials-talking-as-sex-scandal-hits-penn-state-charity-4202

I have no experience with non profits/aka liability issues.

Are you a lawyer?

I assume that the charity and all involved will be targeted in the inquires and I'm sure they should have legal representation (the charities legal counsel probably).

From WBFF Fox 45 Baltimore:

Hall of Famer Cal Ripken Jr. is removing any mention of his name from the charity tied to the Penn State controversy. Ripken’s name is no longer listed on “The Second Mile” charity website as an honorary board member. It’s the same charity former Penn State Assistant Jerry Sandusky allegedly used to meet and molest young boys.
