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.
My question is why this scumbag was released on $100,000 bail??
Any children of his own, do you know? If not, wonder if they were just not able to have children.....or......
Was his wife a beard?
My God. The outrageous places my mind is going!
I’ve been saying since this started, that there is a WHOLE lot more going on here than just covering for some guy buggering a kid.
Penn State has created a CULTURE of perversions in the last decade, or more.
There are now rumors of parents being paid off, kids pimped out to rich donors, etc.etc.
Whatever the truth is, the fact remains that the liberals running Penn State created an environment where these things, and the corruption it fed, could flourish.
The ground sown with salt.
The gentleman that introduced him said very clearly “Interim Head Coach”. Not going to lock themselves in until they see fit.
It's incredible to me that he was allowed bail. And Penn State and the community would probably be better off he did off himself; fewer sordid details would be learned. If the authorities want the full story they better put Sandusky in jail.
Paterno is, unless he resigned very recently, still on the board of Second Mile.
I have heard there are entire closed communities of rich pedophiles where they routinely pass their children (often adopted) around. There was an arrest in Virginia a few years ago where nobody in this gated community would talk about their neighbors who had just been arrested for pedophilia. I remember my spidey sense was tingling like crazy when I read that story. Surreal.
It would not surprise me in the slightest if Sandusky was a part of a much larger homosexual pedophile ring.
My suspicion is that there was a pedophile ring.
Google the Second Mile Board of Directors. Unbelievable. You can’t even count all of them. All kinds of different “directors”. South Board, Southeast Board, Honorary Board etc. Arnold Palmer, Vermeil, other big names on the Honorary list.
“My question is why this scumbag was released on $100,000 bail??”
Was this a male Judge? In or around State College? Was he a “big donor” to PSU?
Just askin’. hmmmmmmm
He won’t be back, for the same reason Paterno was fired. So why are they waiting? Football First.
He was determined to hide his personal computer and destroy the hard drive... compromising photos or child porn?
“I think Gricar feared being exposed as a customer and made himself vanish.”
EXACTLY. My thoughts as well. And if this IS a pedophile ring, I’ve got alot MORE people on my list that should be questioned. When things seem “inexplicable”, they all start to make sense in the correct context.
The fact that he is out on bail and walking around instead of under supervision tells me that there are some who are either hoping that this happens or . . .
***Gricar either offed when he showed up at and appointed time and place with his hard drive to prove he’d wiped it, or disappeared to save his life or that of his family.***
That’s possible. The first reported assault was in 1998 followed by the second reported incident in 2002. Gricar disappeared in 2005.
The Second Mile had been operating since 1977.
Accepting that he had investigative reports with names, places and evidence he might have been overwhelmed (as we are) with the number of high profile participants in the depravity.
Perhaps Gricar approached the wrong ‘official’ to present his findings and that was the end of Gricar.
He was in over his head- he should have handed off to the FBI.
Sure it does! ....
Good Lord.
Or perhaps he was part and parcel of the depravity.
a less than elegant and appropriate phraseology...
I suspected at the beginning, and now I am sure that it is true - Second Mile was formed as a farm to cultivate boy toys for sick predators. I thought at first it was a personal mission of Sanduski, but now I believe this is a pederast cult. Soon enough we will find that some Washington politicians were customers.
