I read yesterday that the boy (now 17) who made the complaint about Sandusky’s more recent behavior, which was the thing that kicked off the investigation into the earlier charges, just had to leave his high school because of the abuse, much of it involving sexual name calling related to the acts to which he was submitted, insults and threats he was getting from the other students because he had “snitched” and this had gotten “JoePa” removed. Unbelievable.
What was even worse was the interview with the administrator or principal of the school, who said “we - uh - failed - uh - uh - to - uh prepare - uh -uh - uh - to facilitate - uh - the boy’s - uh presence - uh uh uh - in the - uh - school...” She never said that the behavior of the other students was wrong and disgusting, that anybody participating in these attacks should be off any team they might have been on because they clearly did not understand right and wrong, and that they were doing exactly what the victim feared they would do, attack him for daring to reveal the abusive acts of a powerful person in their society.
That is so sad. I hope he sues the school.
