Nothing about this caper makes any sense, this victim being the most confusing.
According to the indictment, the witness sees a pretty awful crime in progress, but does nothing. He decidess to call his father (WTF???? The witness was a grown man, 28 at the time), and then both the witness and his dad....call the cops? Call child protective service? No, they have a meeting with Paterno. Who then, does what? Calls his boss and says, well we don't know what he says.
I can actually see Paterno's side of this: if the witness was so sure of what he saw (a felony in progress), why didn't he call 911, even anonymously, from a pay phone, say)????? You wait a whole day to "report" this crime to....the football coach? That makes no freaking sense at all.
Sandusky waas clearly a pervert, and it seems that a bunch of people knew that and at least covered for him, but you have to ask "why"? What was in it for everyone else that they would cover this up, look the other way, and just generally allow this serial molester to just keep adding to the list of victims?
I don't get it.
The Sandusky problem at Penn State is a direct result of Graham Spanier's agenda for the school.
According to the Boston Herald, the media frenzy forced the trustees to fire Paterno.
I think in the rush to do something, the trustees forgot who the villians were, and my question for them is who negotiated and who approved emeritus status for Sandusky as part of his retirement package? An answer to that will define who the enablers were and whether it was part of Spanier's LGBT agenda.
He believed him and did nothing but pass it on to the AD and then did not care if nothing happened.
You can bet, if that child had been one of Petrano's grandchildren, he would have done more!
