Plain and simple, he's (now) trying to cover his own ass, so to speak...
You got that right. Be looking for that perp in the Everglades. And won’t find him.
McQueary faced one of those moments that defines character, which is am I going to do the right thing or the right thing for me. He came up short.
the coverup started then....and according to reports, the ONLY reason McQ came forward was because there were postings somewhere on a blog and the cops tracked down McQ...
Definitely possible.
Umm... happens all the time at the local YMCA.
And it's hurting the prosecution's case. If he's the main witness, he's not helping his credibility.
Nice.
At least now I am no longer surprised at your defense of a child-rapist and his enablers.
yeah...my dad was in the Navy at age 17 in WW2....back then we had boys that were MEN...
Agreed.
Not defending anyone.
He also went to the supervisor of the campus police.
But, yes, if that was the reason for Paterno and Sandusky’s icy relationship, that does not reflect well on Paterno.
I wouldn’t expect him to run out under fire and grab a wounded comrade, that’s for sure.
Or dive into the river for the drowning kid.
I completely mis-read which of mine you were responding to.
Please see Post #34.
You have my sincere apologies.
I don’t think McQ saw anything close to rape, just a man and and a boy showering together. That is bad enough — no need for Bookworm to exaggerate what was seen.
“I am sorry about this post!!
I completely mis-read which of mine you were responding to.”
No worries, Mate. I didn’t help by not quoting.
My concern here is that McQueary could be hurting the case - - and I cannot find a positive thing to say about him whether he is lying or evolving his truth.
What makes this so puzzling is that he once broke up a knife fight between football players and his dad was also a special ops guy.
WE do not know what his testimony was before the Grand Jury. The only thing that has been published is the grand jury SUMMARY. The fact that he was placed on leave and not fired outright is important. What he saw, and is willing to testify to is critical to the case. Until others start to come forward, which is what is happening now, he was/is their most important witness.
Maybe swords intimidate him, but knives do not?

...I’m sorry, that was tasteless and immature...
