Tom Corbett on Penn State mess
November 09, 2011|By John L. Micek, CALL HARRISBURG BUREAU

HARRISBURG — Gov. Tom Corbett on Wednesday said he was “personally disappointed in the lack of action” by university officials. “And I had to contain that for the last two years.”

Corbett, a former state attorney general, said his office first began investigating accusations against Sandusky in 2009, after receiving a referral from the Centre County District Attorney’s Office. Because of his investigatory role, he declined to comment on many of the specifics in the case.

He wanted to have a chance to get convictions.

I was thinking that Joe should have called the governor YEARS ago. Tom Ridge was governor in 1998.
