Bingo! I would not doubt that Barny Frank partook of boys.
Sandusky used Penn State football facilities for his foundation and abusing the kids the foundation was supposed to be helping
This enterprise was financed by donors and if the children were placed by the Courts,the Child Protective Services and Family Courts were probably complicant also, because, in this day and age, nothing remains secret for long. And they would have been at least a sniff of what was happening.
Paterno must have bumped into Sandusky occasionally and Sandusky was attending PSU regualar season and bowl games with young boys.
As long as they were associated and the closeness of thessociation, common sense would tell one that Paterno at least had an inkling that something was not kosher.

AMEN!
I’m confident Joe and all those who’ve participated in and enabled Sandusky’s perversion are not sleeping well these days. Without a doubt Sandusky will rat them all out for leniency. He’s the key to identifying all the victims, who knew about his activities and those to whom he may have pimped out boys.
I would normally say to look for Sandusky to suffer the same fate as the D.D.But in today's moral climate of "tolerance" for deviant acts, particular sex acts, he will probably idolized.In the Grand Jury report Sandusky’s wife is said to have tried to contact one of the boy’s families—prior to the grand jury convening. Sandusky was trying to do the same. It appears she may be complicit in this as well.
One cannot be as close as a man and wife, particularly the years they were married, and hide secrets of this enormancy from each other. Again, common sense would tell one that she knew.And for reasons known only to her, she chose, through her silence, to become part of it.
The Sanduskys had no biological children. They adopted. I wonder if they were abused as well.
That does not excuse their conduct. However, they may not thought they did anything wrong. After all, they probably did not read the Bible,or practice the 10 Commandants. And godness knows, they have a lot of support from the future leaders of this Nation, a/k/a college students and alumni.
IMHO, it’s way too early for too much conjecture.
I can see how the scenario could be played out in multiple variations, each having one person very criminal and all the others as somewhat patsy’s.
For example: What if...
Scenario1:
McQ was the actual homosexual rapist, seen by Sandusky, knew he had been seen, then went to Paterno with his hypothetical,..”what if somebody witnessed a senior coach committing a crime of a sexual nature in the team showers?”,..playing the scenario to measure Paterno’s response and meanwhile leveraging a cleverly veiled extortion...
Scenario2:
Sandusky was the rapist, McQ also gay, used the event to extort Paterno for employment at the time. Maybe that extortion has continued. Paterno is now 84 and up to retire,...maybe McQ was extorting a higher position and denied,...now he resurrects the event with other authorities, while nobody else has motive to report the former extortion....
Scenario3:
Paterno is a PSU Godfather with homosexual inklings. Sets up either McQ or Sandusky for a fall, while the other continues the empire.
Scenario4:
Paterno is innocent, being set up by gay leaning PSU administrators to forcibly retire him, while avoiding accountability of their move, while maintaining a younger mid-generation gay power structure.
Scenario5:
Paterno is a PSU Godfather, harboring Sandusky as a gay recruiting machine to win favor from gay power structures in the shadows, with extortion and blackmail leverage available with plausible deniability. McQ has suspicions over the years and observes the rape. Pieces things together, but then realizes if he doesn’t act, he could be made a fall guy. So he tries to leverage an extortion to keep a job with Paterno, trumping Sandusky. Paterno honors the play to keep both Sandusky and McQ in check with one another, while not risking outside exposure. Situation resurrects itself as Paterno’s retirement becomes more inevitable. Multiple interests involved to maneuver in a power vacuum from insiders and outsiders and academic administration players.

There must be some Hollywood writers just going into overload on this whole episode. One could write an entire TV season, one show per week, same actors, different plot per episode, and have an already established fan base.
I did not think about the courts being complicit. Thanks for the incite.
University Park, State College and Center County as a whole—even today, has a small population once the students are stripped out. Everyone more or less knows everyone’s business. Sandusky appears to have been fairly open and/or careless with what he was doing. Scandalous and deviant behavior of this duration and magnitude could not have remained hidden. Many of those folks know what was going or have a good inkling about what was going on. I bet many of them go to church, too. In the end, when it counted, they abandoned whatever morals they had—and the kids—to keep Penn State “pure”.
There are more components to this outrage yet to come. I’m sure.
But looking ahead to how to fix Penn State I’m not encouraged. The common denomintor here is leftist demrats and Marxism. Two sides of the same coin. Pennsylvania is a leftist demrat state run by leftist demrats. Penn State will not be fixed by the people with the power to do it.
