Who knew? You’re sure that someone knew? Mike McCreary supposedly saw something, told his father......not the police. Did Jerry Sandusky’s wife know? What about the charity he was involved in? Did the children tell their parents? They knew?

Jerry Sandusky is the guilty one here. He’s going to prison, most likely for the rest of his life. The children are going to sue the deep pockets of someone, most likely the University, which will pass along the costs to future students.

Like I said, in our society, for some unknown reason, there’s always a need to blame someone OTHER than the criminal. Could he have been stopped? I don’t know. Could his wife have stopped him? His adopted son now claims that he was molested, too. Did the rest of his family know? His close friends? The people at the charity?

Joe Paterno is dead and buried, he can’t defend himself, which is why he’ll be attacked. Jerry Sandusky is going to prison, where he belongs.

You're still claiming that there's only one person guilty.

there’s always a need to blame someone OTHER than the criminal.

As I said, molest one child once, shame on you. Molest several children several times over a decade, and shame on you and all your "friends".

Joe Paterno is dead and buried, he can’t defend himself.

So, poor Joe Pa "can't defend himself"? Seems to me, then, that that puts him pretty much in the same position as that boy who was being sodomized in shower in a Penn State facility.

Surely, the boy warrants a bit more sympathy than Joe Paterno, at this point? Unless, that is, you think that the boy should have just "taken one for the team"?

Should you ever tire of embracing the cult of Penn State football, might I perhaps suggest an alternative? Say, Scientology?

Twisted.

Sandusky would have been in prison long before if JoPa had done what any decent man would have done, turn him in to the police.

The football program came first.

>> “Jerry Sandusky is the guilty one here.” <<

.
Sandusky is the convicted one, but Penn State “University” ia the most guilty one here. They are an institution of sexual deviance, not education.

Sexual deviance permeates every element of that cesspool. Shut it down!

I think I understand your concern, but some things are bigger than one man's legacy and this is one of them.

While Sandusky is the real monster here, tt can't be stressed enough that PSU officials need to be held accountable for their part in this, too.

That accountability should best be in the form of shutting down the football program for a few years.

It's a no-brainer, actually.
