Former Penn State coach Jerry Sandusky has been charged with sexually abusing eight children, with something like a dozen more also claiming they were victimized. That's horrible. Powerful PSU figures appear to have attempted to cover up what they knew. That makes it even worse.
But if one rumor turns out to be true, this may become a story too awful to compare to any other.
There's been nothing reported by an investigative journalist or law enforcement official so far, but a handful of media members are talking about investigations into whether Sandusky may have shared some of his victims with other adult males.
From two days ago, here's Dan Bernstein of CBS Chicago:
@dan_bernstein FYI: names are being x-checked w/Sandusky's Second Mile, and there are other older adult men with "curious" relationships. Only the start.
Thursday morning, Mark Madden, a Pittsburgh radio host who wrote a story seven months ago envisioning Sandusky's downfall, went on WEEI's Dennis & Callahan Morning Show to discuss the scandal. At the 7:15 mark here, he's asked about the "next shoe to drop." Here are his remarks:
I can give you a rumor, and I can give you something I think might happen. I hear there's a rumor that there will be a more shocking development from the Second Mile foundation. And, hold on to your stomachs because this is gross, I'll use the only language that I can, that Jerry Sandusky and Second Mile were pimping out young boys to donors. This is being investigated by two prominent columnists as I speak.
Madden also speculates it'll be revealed that Sandusky was told to retire as part of a cover-up.
CBS Sports' Gregg Doyel tweeted the following later in the morning, appearing to cite a source besides Madden:
@greggdoyelcbs I'm told Penn's atty general has this sick Sandusky rumor on the radar. Warning, awful read http://t.co/Wy4uiuiD
We can hope none of this is true, but multiple outlets are saying it's being investigated. If it is, let's then hope investigators are able to find it never happened.
that would be correct.
Maybe someone can find and post the cmments..
Barry tells it like it is.
Paterno and Switzer have a "history", and not a good one. Paterno was once asked about retiring, and he said he couldn't because"It would leave college football in the hands of the Jackie Sherrills and Barry Switzers". Ouch.
It's just payback time.
Who is Emeril Lagasse? I was thinking of Ernst Roehm and his boys...
Fascinating...gret find..and you’re probably correct..but still, it’s a crack in the facade of the coaches union..which is a good thing..
Unfortunately there are many other examples to compare it to. Pedos seem to crave the admiration of their pedo peers, and victim-sharing is extremely common.
Huh huh, come on, ya know it's a good...
We all knew Barry was crooked when he was coaching.
Exactly. Good capture.
I find it rather ludicrous as well for people to describe how powerful JoePa has been...how much of a "god" figure he is...almost omnipotent and omniscient...
...And then posters "beg off" Paterno as being some limp-wristed no-nothing who "did" his duty to report it and forgot about it the rest of his life with nary another thought about a child rapist on the loose.
They run it both ways, according to convenience of what and who they are apologizing for...
It's the right thing to do.
You’ll get no argument from me. I like the way you think. “Line ‘em and mow ‘em down.”
Switzer would have broken Sandusky’s neck with his bare hands.
“that Jerry Sandusky and Second Mile were pimping out young boys to donors.”
A practice that has occurred in the “gay area” of San Fran sicko since the 70s. A more revealing look into the male homosexual obsession won’t find its way to Homowood for another generation.
“It’s just payback time.”

So Switzer is lying, just to get back at Paterno?
“Sandusky and friends behavior is NOT the exception for sodomites. The sodomite lifestyle cannot be tolerated.”
Yep, lived in the San Fran area for 6 years. This has been going on since the 70s. Since hollywood is full of these deviants don’t look for any of this to be mentioned to the masses.
What about the many people who have been wrongly convicted?
There is not doubt I’m my mind that Sandusky is guilty, nut there are many cases that are not so clear.
