You guys just want to pin everything on Paterno, don't you???
Paterno was not involved in the 1998 investigation and was privy to none of the information.
It was the PA DPW who let Sandusky slide on that one.
If he knew anything about it then whoever told him was breaking the law.
but because it should have made the urgency of contacting the authorities in 2001 even more compelling.
He did contact the authorities in 2001 or weren't you aware of that???
Keep trying -- maybe you and Freeh can find that he had something to do with the Kennedy assassination or Sandy Hook??? Haaaaah
I've repeatedly stated that Paterno was one of the powerful and authoritative people at PSU. What is it about "one of" that you fail to comprehend?
Paterno was not involved in the 1998 investigation
Who claimed he was? He sure as hell had knowledge of the investigation as did others.
".....whether or not McQueary told him that he had witnessed anal rape, any report of sexual abuse should have triggered an investigation by proper authorities, particularly since Paterno knew that Sandusky had been investigated before."
