“Paterno accepted and enabled the crimes”
Let’s face the facts. The whole of the actions of Penn State personnel was to “protect” their football program. They did it at the expense of who knows just how many young, innocent boys. Right now with Freeh “on the job,” the mission is to try and get the rest of the $hit back in the horse. Curley, Shultz and Spannier should all be tried based on what is already known about their actions (or more correctly inactions). But now with Sandusky put away, I am sure Freeh is going to give us the “move along, nothing else to see here, we need to get Penn State’s football program up and running again” spiel.
