Uh, did you read the grand jury report? McQueary kept his mouth shut till the guys in the suits came knocking on the door ...
You mean he was compelled to testify? I didn't read that in the GJ report. What page?
Anyway, I posited a question earlier, you must have missed it:
That said, if McQueary is as evil as everyone says, why on earth did he say anything at all? He could have just walked away and ignored the situation and saved himself, and probably the university, a whole lot of trouble.
You make a good point. McQueary kept his observations in-house until he testified in front of the grand jury. He might not have had time (or access) to meet with the other higher ranking witnesses, to conspire to tell the same version of what really happened.
He probably figured his only option was to tell the truth, and at least avoid a perjury charge. The grand jury thought he was credible.
It sounds like the grand jury believed Curley and Schultz to be less than credible.
