Paterno saying he told the AD about it is equivalent to a Catholic priest saying "I told the bishop about it" when he learned that a former employee was abusing kids on church property.

If it's not an alibi for the priest (and it shouldn't be), it's not an alibi for the football coach.

Still less is it an alibi for the dumb horse's behind who actually witnessed the abuse and didn't call the cops immediately.

Well, that's true. But of course the rest of your post therefore makes no sense since Paterno DID call the cops immediately.
