As I said on another thread regarding the former President of the University, the Athletic Director, and Paterno:
They are all guilty of enabling this monster...of turning their eyes away from abject abuse and sexual assault on under-aged boys. They were protecting their $90 million dollar a year football program and were too cowardly (or themselves wrapped up in it in some way) to even help the young men they witnessed being brought to those events.
It is a sick, disgusting, sad affair.
The University president, the Atheletic Director, and Coach Paterno all need to be charged with some form of criminal neglect IMHO and based on reading these sequence of events.
The Penn State Football program should get a 3-5 year death penalty.
How absolutely revolting and disgusting.
I wonder if Joe would have acted differently if Sandusky showed up to one of the "events" with Paterno's grandson? Or of the Janitor or other coach had seen Paterno's grandson in the shower with Sandusky.
How does the other coach see it, eyewitness the sexual assault in the shower, or the janitor for that matter...and NOT STOP IT RIGHT THEN WHILE IT WAS OCCURING? Much less immediately call the police?
It may be wrong...but as God is my witness, if I knew (and these people knew it) someone was doing this to one of my boys when they were younger (they're grown now) are any of my grandkids, the individual involved would never do it again. He would cease to be amongst the living just as soon as I could get there...and I would be happy to rely on a jury of my peers, whatever the outcome, and do so with a clear conscience.
Joe would have acted differently if Sandusky was pilfering the football box office petty cash.
The Penn State Football program should get a 3-5 year death penalty.

This line of thinking I don’t get.
Punish the players for the actions of their coaches?
If he had been caught beating a kid with a baseball bat, wonder if the janitor or assistant coach would have intervened.
