No one involved or named at PSU was a mandated reporter. MM’s father’s friend - with whom he shared his story the night it happened was a mandated reporter, but MM told him nothing sexual happened after being asked 3 times (per Dr Dranov’s GJ testimony).
Why would a University President, or an Athletic Director be a mandated reporter for child abuse? They don’t come in contact with children very often - if at all.
§ 42.42. Suspected child abuse—mandated reporting requirements.(a) General rule. Under 23 Pa.C.S. § 6311 (relating to persons required to report suspected child abuse), licensees who, in the course of the employment, occupation or practice of their profession, come into contact with children shall report or cause a report to be made to the Department of Public Welfare when they have reasonable cause to suspect on the basis of their professional or other training or experience, that a child coming before them in their professional or official capacity is a victim of child abuse.
I do not pretend to follow Pennsylvania law. All sorts of people are mandated reporters that do not fit the ‘thought of’ as typical. Why are you trying to protect men who encouraged a win at all costs attitude to pervade PSU? With Paterno, Sandusky is nobody.
