Sex Abuse Scandal Rocks Penn State

[firstdown]

I can't believe the school has not ripped down his statue. They should allow anyone who he harmed to come help and rip it down like the Saddam statue. They could drag it through the street and beat it with shoes.

Its going to be interesting what the NCAAs do.

The big Joe Pa lie from what I understand is he stated he didnt know about the 98 incident, which now the report stated he was fully aware.

I dont think "death penalty" would be appropriate for the program, but a very severe penalty should be implicated based on the cover up and the lack of instituational control.

The lawsuits are going to be massive. Feel sorry for the students and alum. I have no sympathy for BOT, Pres, Joe Pa and his damn family, AD or the football team as a whole.

Spanier must believe we are all idiots.

No guys, I didn't know anything about this even though you have direct evidence via my emails that I sent to others.




Another good write up on Freeh's report. Has it broken down.

Many props to the patriot news for their coverage through out this process. I do believe the woman that started this whole thing out won a Pulitzer for her journalism.

SMU got it for paying out a total of $61K to players and Eric Dickerson got a Trans Am.

You don't think an entire football staff and probably players over a decade covering up rapes of kids, plus supporting a fake charity to lure in victims is worse? The whole University from the President and Athletic Director down to janitors who stated they knew about the cover-up are guilty here.

Just listened to the entire thing on the radio, live.


I knew Paterno was involved since the first time I heard about it but wow...

Paterno actually said to Sandusky:
"You did what you needed to do, now I need to figure out how to hide it."



Also, he wrote something before his death asking people not to make this an issue witht he football program. I was angry when I heard that but it confirms what I knew all along, Paterno was concerned with his football legacy above all else.

When you have nutjobs with shrines in their homes and offices (I work with several ladies who have literal shrines covering full walls in their offices and cubicles with Paterno worship), I guess it can turn even the best people into egomaniacs. He is God to many people in this Commonwealth and it's always been sickening to me...but even worse, they STILL support him and haven't taken a thing down. I hope PSU's football program gets the death penalty. Not a temporary one like SMU...forever.

This will make the University concentrate on academics, which needs attention since it's one of the top "party schools" in the nation with plenty of crime on the campus. It would make these lemmings' heads spin. I'd love to see it. Everyone who treated Paterno and the football program like they were gods helped build up this mentality and ego by every one of those who covered up Sandusky's sick acts. They were more concerned about their image and football resumes than the kids, the law and just doing what's right.

Forget the death penalty for the football team. That's not enough. DOE needs to pull all federal aid to the university. Means no funding and no scholarships for anyone. Will totally cripple the university, the community, and unfortunately probably even people who don't deserve to be punished. But no punishment is really punishment enough is kind of how I feel at the moment.

I agree.





Also, I hope Scott Paterno gets hit by a bus. It's saddening to hear these clowns defend such horrible behavior. Amazing the values they teach our young. He's a coward and liar much like his father. Guess the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree.

Sandusky's wife was listening to rapes from her basement. She needs to go down too.

Unbelievable, in Sandusky's retirment package he personally requested: free lifetime use of the East Area Locker Room facilities.

This is in 1999, i mean good lord they gave him a safe haven to rape children on their campus!!!!

NOT only that, but JoePa gave him to option to continue coaching.

Joe Paterno Gave Jerry Sandusky The Option To Keep Coaching "As Long As He Was The Coach"





The actually rehired him after his retirement.

A month into retirement proceedings, AD Tim Curley applied to have Sandusky reemployed as an "emergency hire." It was granted, and Sandusky was re-hired for 95 days, at the same salary plus a six percent cost-of-living increase. In December of that year, Sandusky brought Victim 4 along to the Alamo Bowl in San Antonio, and assaulted him at the team hotel.

and wtf is this:

"A lot of stuff get swept under the rug at university’s don’t understand why penn state had to tell the media we got a coach rapping kids"

So Roddy White doesnt understand why Penn St should make it known a child molester is football coach?

I see Roddy conjugates his verbs Warpath style:"rapping" kinda like "hatting". Those silent e are a mutherf*cker.

Yeah, the school really learned something didn't it? STILL trying to protect their image even after all this. It's a shame the NCAA isn't going to give them the death penalty in this.

TVs at PSU student center suddenly switched to public access

The handful of students and alumni that gathered in Penn State's student center this morning to watch the release of the Freeh report live were stunned when the channel suddenly switched.

While most of campus was still sleepy, the small group was viewing CNN on a large screen, or one of several smaller screens nearby, in anticipation of the 9 a.m. release of the report on the sex abuse scandal that has gripped the school.

Most were hoping that the report, part of a seven-month probe by former FBI Director Louis Freeh, would exonerate legendary football coach Joe Paterno.

But, just as an anchor was ready to speak about the report, the television screens suddenly went blank. They then turned to a public access channel featuring a reporter from The Morning Call newspaper in Allentown about the state budget.

**** these guys. I hope the school burns to the ground.
