Re: “But Gary Schulz isn’t an officer of the law himself - he was just the nominal supervisor of the campus police in his capacity as university VP. And he didn’t tell any police officer.”

Which was Schultz’s shortcoming and not Paterno’s. Also note that Schultz was indicted for perjury and also failure to report to child welfare authorities, which Paterno was NOT because it was apparently Schultz’s and not Paterno’s responsibility to do this.

Pretty hard for McQueary when the boy was actually (allegedly) being assaulted.

It was Paterno's shortcoming as well - moral and ethical.

When the boy was actually being assaulted was when McQueary should have stepped in and stopped it. Afterward is when he should have called the cops. Or Paterno, or Curley, or Schultz. All of them are culpable.
