I've said it before. There is no Nitanny Valleny/Penn State family tree. It's a wreath.
Ping.
I don’t see any wrongdoing here.
Another story about the Sandusky child rape story at Penn State that doesn’t ask the real obvious question.
Why was Sandusky, who admitted to the inappropriate act of showering with a child in 1998, allowed to maintain his tenure status for 13 years at Penn State after Joe Paterno removed him as defensive coordinator?
Ping
I heard from another source today (a man who works in a position auxiliary to the sports department) that it was know 20 years ago that Sandusky was a pedophile. This insider asserts also that the boys were being passed around to Second Mile donors.
Sandusky's lawyer and his wife are in this photo.
Most people do not realize how small a community Centre County Pennsylvania really is.
Penn State is Centre County....in most ways. The only other major employer is the state prison where we execute criminals.
The fact remains that we know everybody at Penn State is connected in some way to everybody at Second Mile. That is not illegal or indicative of improper activity.
However, the fact that everybody at Penn State is connected in some way to everybody at Second Mile creates an atmosphere where illegal and improper actions can take place.
Let the investigation take its course. Centre County is not leading this, the state is leading this, so it should be handled well.
the more I hear Sandusky talk, and knowing how they rode that female BB coach out on a rail for NOT wanting lesbians on her team, the more I think that Paterno was forced to NOT say anything....
I grew up in a little college town, everybody knows everybody, the web of community leaders is surprisingly small in such places, and the college the epicenter of the community. Paterno, was a man of incomparable stature, and Sandusky was his heir apparent until 1999, when something happened that caused Paterno to tell Sandusky to take a hike. Something the old man is hoping never sees the light of day now, I imagine.
The whole town is rotten, and the whole region is rife with pedophiles. Look at that other coach in Syracuse who just got exposed, these guys all know each other, and they network with each other and trade favors, and also trade victims. There are many secrets, and no doubt bodies, to be uncovered in State College. And I do mean bodies, pedophiles inevitably leave a corpse or two behind. The dominoes are starting to fall, and it will be interesting to see where they land.
The world is full of many evils, and we can only hope that there is a special place in Hell for Sandusky with all sorts of tortures designed specially for his sort of monstrosty.
