Weeks later as more rumors are spread you still want to hang the guy without a trial (or charges).
Paterno knew it in 2002. He testified before the Grand Jury that he knew it
No, he testified before the Grand Jury that he was told it. I thought you said you were some kind of lawyer.
The only reason Paterno wasn't charged with perjury in the first Presentment was because of his status at Penn State and because he's 84.
And you know this just like you think Paterno knew everything.
Regarding the '98 investigation, of which btw I'm inclined to think he was aware, why would you claim that Paterno "knew" Sandusky was sexually molesting kids when the D.A. declined to bring charges?
One more thing -- pointing out that the claims certain people are making against Paterno are based on supposition is not the same as making a definitive proclamation as to his innocence. If, as the trial unfolds, it turns out that Paterno passed to Curley McQueary's report with a wink and a nod, or that, perhaps, as some seem to have implied, that he ordered a hit on Gricar, I'm more than willing to hang him.
As far as those who want to hang him based on the Grand Jury report, or claims that he sought to control the discipline of his players, I can't say they are the brightest lot, you know.
Jay? If your father really needed privacy regarding his illness so badly, then you shouldn't have announced his lung cancer to the press. And as much as I hate to see your father, JoePa, with cancer, I guess it proves that keeping your head in the sand for thirty years is a carcinogen.
Choosing to abandon the Grand Jury presentment and common knowledge for the sake of idol worship isn't pretty. Please go tip over some more TV vans, or taunt some of the Penn State child abuse victims for having the temerity to come forward and besmirch the good name of Paterno.
