I guess everyone except JoePa is entitled to due process.

What’s your point?

He’s dead.

If he were still alive and went on trial for covering-up child sexual abuse, do you think that the verdict would be substantially different than that of Jerry Sandusky?

Nonsense. Paterno is dead. Due process protects people, not legacies. Paterno's legacy has no rights. If it was important to him he should have acted to protect it while he was alive.

My lasting memory of “Joe Pa” will be him leading chants of “We are .. Penn State” on his lawn as the Sandusky story broke.

Burn. In. Hell. Child rape enabler.

> I guess everyone except JoePa is entitled to due process.

JoePa gave up “due process” when he chose to go the “let’s handle this quietly” with that pervert monster Sandusky instead of going to the cops.

Did you *read* the Freeh report? Here’s the Wiki summation:
“Emails uncovered by Freeh’s investigation revealed that Paterno had lied to the grand jury on at least two occasions: first, when testifying that he was unaware of any possible child abuse by Sandusky prior to the 2001 Lasch shower rape, and second, in claiming that he had only once spoken to Tim Curley about the 2001 incident. Emails uncovered by Freeh’s team showed Paterno had, in fact, closely followed an earlier 1998 investigation about possible child molestation by Sandusky. In 2001, while Paterno claimed his only discussion regarding McQueary’s report to him about Sandusky in the Lasch showers was with Curley immediately following the incident, subsequent emails revealed he had engaged in additional conversations with Curley pressuring him (and Schultz and Spanier) not to report the rape to police.”

Fry in hell, JoePa. You aided and abetted the rape of innocent children.

BTW, Paterno is getting a bum rap. (MO)

For over a decade, "JoePa" woke up every day and made the decision not to call the cops on a homosexual pedophile predator. That adds up to thousands of bad decisions.

JoePa may not have received the prison time he so richly deserves on this earth for enabling a homosexual predator, but I'm sure that wherever he is at, that he is feeling the heat for letting a monster roam his precious football facilities and campus.

Well..then how about trying him “in abstentia’?
the evidence is there. Paterno will get due process when his Employer, PSU will have the ability to refute any allegations of Paterno’s involvement in upcoming trials.

Guess those boys that were molested and raped didn’t have the opportunity to file charges when they were children to stop the abuse...Now THAT’s no due process!

[fortheDeclaration]

Was he indicted for something?

He received his 'due process' in the report PSU ACCEPTED as legimate.
