And what about the graduate assistant who ACTUALLY witnessed the raping of the young boy and DID not tell Paterno the entire story. Joe was under the impression that they were horsing around in the shower. Joe told his boss as I would have told mine, and allowed the judicial system to take care of it. Probably never thought about it again until the Grand Jury summons.

McCreary is the guiltiest of them all and no mention of him. HE should have called 911 immediately and told Paterno the exact details of the RAPE.

According to the graduate student and the Grand Jury he told Paterno and the other two guys (both charged) that he walked into the room to the sound of wet flesh slapping against wet flesh and saw anal sex going on, they both saw him, and he left the room. No doubt only after the fact did he think to himself - that was like a ten year old kid on the receiving end!

Where did you get that Paterno was only told about “horseplay”?

It was the two PennStatePedo guys who are charged for covering up the crime that reported it as “horseplay”.

Are you kidding me? A grown man and a young boy naked in the shower horsing around at 9:30 in the evening with nobody around? That is your excuse for Paterno’s inaction. That he did not know the severity of the situation.

I am sure if it was your son and this was conveyed to you, you would think nothing of it. Joe enabled this behavior to protect his cherished football program.

According to Peterno’s own testimony he did NOT have the impression they were ‘horsing around in the shower”:

“The next
morning, a Saturday, the graduate assistant telephoned Paterno and went to Paterno’s home,
where he reported what he had seen.
Joseph V. Paterno testified to receiving the graduate assistant’s report at his home on a
Saturday morning. Paterno testified that the graduate assistant was very upset. Paterno called
Tim Curley (”Curley”), Penn State Athletic Director and Paterno’s immediate superior, to his
home the very next day, a Sunday, and reported to him that the graduate assistant had seen Jerry
Sandusky in the Lasch Building showers fondling or doing something of a sexual nature to a
young boy.”

But yes, McQueary and Spanier need to go also. They and Paterno should be fired today.

That's the part of this scandal that I don't understand. McCreary was pretty precise in his description of what he witness to all but Paterno. Why? It doesn't make sense.

Wondering if the DA just allowed Paterno to wiggle-out of his culpability here by failing to closely question McCreary & Paterno on the discrepancy. If that did happen, then McCreary has got to be regretting his decision to cooperate on that point, because it looks bad for him.

Oh, Joe Pa-shaw! Paterno properly "rewarded" McQueary for staying quiet all these years by bumping him from "graduate assistant" to Wide Receivers Coach.

You, too, can go forward in the world if you only keep pedophiles in business.
