blah blah.. if he’s a child molester he should be hanged. Recounting “good deeds” he has done is pointless.
All they boys he is reported to have raped were in their second year at the camp before he approached them sexually.
He was in the process of raping a young boy in the showers when an assistance walked in on them. I stopped reading when I got to the fourth victim.
But all those that stood by and let it happen need to spend time in prison as if they personally molested those young boys themselves. They were willing accomplices.
Sheeeesh...I'm about to blow a gasket. I can't even think straight I'm so F’n angry.
Has anyone else noticed that the terms “gay” and/or “homosexual” are never mentioned whenever this story is written about?
As an aside....
I’m no PSU fan. I take every opportunity with my wife’s family to poke holes in their PSU arrogance. (That’s a lof of opportunities, her Dad is from Johnstown and her Mom is form outside of Clearfield) However, I saw a “We are Penn State” commercial on television today and it made me sick and not in a fun “JoePa pooped on the field” kind of way.
Back in 1999 Paterno informed Sandusky that he would NOT be the next coach because Sandusky was spending an enormous amount of time on his ‘Second Mile’ charity at the expense of the football program. “You can’t have two masters,” Paterno told Sandusky. So Sandusky decided to retire.
Now we may be finding out why Sandusky liked his ‘Second Mile’ charity for kids so much.
He liked the kids. He really liked them.
ok. My husband is not a head football coach or anything, but I tell you that if someone told him they had seen bad stuff happening between a former ass. coach and a child in a locker room, then my husband would personally remove that man’s ability to breathe. In self defense, of course. It is a natural reaction of a MAN.
In an effort to maintain the credibility of PS, some folks put on their blinders, and pretended it never happened. Now the time has come to pay for sins of the past. It’s called Karma. No excuses offered now will be sufficient to relieve PS of this crime.
From the article “And no matter how this ends, either justice will be served, as it should be, or an innocent man will be exonerated, which is also as it should be. But no matter what is proven, or mis-proven, this will linger long into the night, like an uncomfortable silence, no one knowing quite what to say, but wanting not to believe.”
I know this writer is confused and upset, but that is still no excuse for that paragraph.
Everyone should read the Grand Jury Report if they want to know who Jerry Sandusky is:

Draw your own conclusions.
It is a noble undertaking, and it has grown and grown, and it is estimated that it reaches 100,000 kids a year. The name comes from the Sermon on the Mount - "And if anyone forces you to go one mile, go also the second mile."
Along the way, Jerry and Dottie, unable to have children of their own, began to adopt. They found they couldn't stop, and reached six before they finally got around to stopping. Oh, and there were foster children, too. Always room for one more, somehow.
Thanks for posting this. Many of these children will most likely be interviewed at some point.
