They better hope that doesn't happen and should ramp up their fundraising efforts now in order to cover the millions upon millions that they'll be shelling out in civil lawsuits in the near future.
In other "you can't make this stuff up" news, Penn State recently opened an on-campus child care facility.The name? The Gary Schultz Child Care Center'proninja said:
I can't.JFC, a 10 year old boy?! I have no kids, and never will, but not even jail or the threat of losing my job and being poor (as I have been before) isn't enough to make me stop destroying some maggot from doing this. Period. I am definitely far from a hero or a brave man, but ####### me if I didn't destroy that man if I saw this.
Pretty sure most of us knows what really went down here. Told him to stop, he didn't then it got out of control to the point where they decided to lie and cover it up to save their own tail. This is pretty much the same thing that happened with the Catholic church in fact scary similar.I think ego and power with JoePa, etc they really thought by telling him to stop having sex with children would be good enough. The assistant who caught him I am also sure he doesn't take a crap unless he asks JoePa first. It's a culture, like Catholic church, where the law begins and ends within the university and never report anything to the cops unless JoePa says to do so.
I might have just sent the PSU physical plant website an email question: Will this new facility have showers large enough to accommodate a grown man and a young boy? Thank you, your assistance is greatly appreciated.In other "you can't make this stuff up" news, Penn State recently opened an on-campus child care facility.The name?

While I appreciate the comparisons to the Ctholic Church, especially in light of the emails and memos from the current pontiff, and find them quite apt, the football team is 110% in the free and clear and will end up being unfortunate victims (though not anywhere close, by a few orders of magnitude of the real victims), of this issue.Catholics still cheer on the pope.
There are moments in life that define who/what you are. This would definitely be one of them.
The image alone is horrid
HTF do you tell someone to stop having sex with children? How? I've been thinking, and even my most bestest of friends, even them, I can't imagine not giving them up for this. This isn't banging your buddies wife or slipping it to a (legal) teen student. This is ####### child rape. There's no intervention, no "this is your only warning". You're ####### gone and I want nothing to do with you ever again is the least of the only appropriate responses.
I feel the same way. If a jury wants to convict me of killing a man for raping a young child go right ahead.
I was drawing out the analogy to include JoPa in the cheering. If he gets the can, I have no problem with people cheering on PSU football. But as long as he is coach, I think the cheering should be silented. He's got a lot to answer for, IMO.While I appreciate the comparisons to the Ctholic Church, especially in light of the emails and memos from the current pontiff, and find them quite apt, the football team is 110% in the free and clear and will end up being unfortunate victims (though not anywhere close, by a few orders of magnitude of the real victims), of this issue.Catholics still cheer on the pope.
Assume for the sake of argument
I wouldn't go so far as killing. Not even close. Not for my sake, but for the sake of his anal retentiveness in prison.
Apparently more than one person has failed to read my comments in their entirety.
Assume for the sake of argument
[*]Paterno knew nothing of the 1998 incident until this weekend.
[*]Paterno knew nothing of any other of the incidents except the 2002 one until this weekend.
[*]Paterno was told in 2002 of that incident and knew that it was enough to disturb McQueary, but never was given enough information to believe that more than questionable "horsing around" was going on.
[*]Paterno had no reason to believe that McQueary lied to him or that higher ups did not fully investigate the incident.
Now I'm not asking that you to believe these, just assume they are true for a moment for this post.
What does that say about Paterno's influence on the kind of man that McQueary turned out to be? Isn't that what college coaches always claim, they are "molding men"? If all of the above is true then Paterno did a pretty poor job of molding McQueary over the decade they were together before the incident.
That is what I was trying to say. That even if we take and assume the best for Paterno with every question no matter how unlikely or unreasonable that might me, it still turns out bad for Paterno.
Being a part of a child rape ring > stopped molding athletes/people at PSU
I'm not 100% sure I would kill either but pretty much all bets are off if I walked into a situation like this. If I was on a jury I wouldn't convict someone taking out justice on scum like that.I wouldn't go so far as killing. Not even close. Not for my sake, but for the sake of his anal retentiveness in prison.
Like anyone has that much time.
Or at the very least, how about shouting out at the top of your lungs 'WHAT THE #### ARE YOU DOING!!!!!'....I cannot believe this monster did this in a public shower. He must have done this thousands of times without getting caught and just figured he was above the law completely. I hope somebody kills him in prison. After raping him with a broom.
Worked for Dahmer, but I recommend the slow burn approach and give him a few weeks in and out of the prison infirmary before the final broom handle thrust.
no it doesn't
I'm sorry, but the actions of the grad student and janitor are inexcuseable.
sideways
Where did I say it wasn't?They should all be throw in jail together with different degrees of judgement handed out amongst them all. Want to protect your image and allow a monster to feed off children then when you get caught you're going to jail as well.This is turning out to be more of a child sex ring feel to it with lots of people involved to keep it going.
Exactly. To do it with impunity like this shows how comfortable he was. At one point he was instructed to "not shower with boys." Really? These kids were failed by more people than just those named over the weekend as this scandal broke. Even given opportunities, no one stood up for these kids. ####### sickening.
I am going to the game... It is Senior day- the game when all seniors are playing for the last time at Beaver Stadium. Should be a highlight of their college carrers - but some very bad people are stealing this moment from these kids. I will be there to cheer these seniors, and I hope my fellow alum will do the same. F Joe. F the AD. F McQueary. Die Sandusky. This is about the players, and they need us now more than ever.
Good for you.
Don't know what is confusing. Even giving Paterno every benefit of the doubt, he still fails.Assume for the sake of argument

I'd take the "I am completely clueless" bit if I hired and covered up a friend who was a serial child rapist then helped him to continue to live that lifestyle. By the way, I'd turn in my best friend if he did this as would most normal human beings.
anyone? I think nearly every person in this thread has discussed it to this point.
I haven't checked back Aaron since Premier brought it up yesterday. I think it seems to get glossed over in the media because it is more interesting to trash Paterno but I really would like to know what he was thinking and also if he is going to have to take the stand. His career should be over.
Pretty sure any adult who saw in person what he now describes under oath as acts creating the a#s clapping sound of a very large grown man forcibly anally sodomizing a young child belongs in prison if he did not report it to the police in a manner which guaranteed it could never happen again. I hope everyone who lives in a community with the GA, Paterno, and any of these other childrapist protecting PSU scum, bans together and pitchfork and torches them out of town. Hopefully, they all eat guns in shame, but I doubt vermin like this have any shame or honor. This is some vile, despicable, sickening, vomitous, disgusting crap and anyone defending it in any way, shape or form, or the people who did it, needs to take a long look in the mirror.
I absolutely agree, just letting the deniers choose which unsavory possibility applies. None of them are very flattering.
Unfortunately, unless JP isn't there, I assume there will be boos aplenty. Assigne these seniors to the victim category, though obviously nowhere near the victim status of the underage rapees.
Sorry, should have just singled out the person on here I meant.
I think Paterno initially gets the benefit of doubt from a lot of people cause of his track record; and it has been one of honor and success. Once the story sinks in, it's pretty clear (at least to me) that there is nothing a person could ever do before or after that would make passing the buck on what Sandusky did acceptable.
Do you think if I know the identity of bank robbers and dont tell, and years later it comes out I knew/know, that I can or should be prosecuted?
Maybe if you are a state mandated reporter of bank robberies...
Utter fail.
