I read some of the grand jury investigation and it was disgusting.

Doesn't this all sound familiar just like the treatment towards cover ups and look the other ways for Catholic priests. Just move them from one church to the other and keep it quiet.
Peace

Yes it does. This guy is more was free to have sex with anyone, the Priests aren't period. Was this guy married and if so, where is she/he during all of this?

How very sad for those boys who were abused....
is it still in the "alleged" phase or are we pretty sure he did it ...
from what I read in the grand jury investigation, he was caught by someone in the gym shower with a 10 or so year old, having anal sex, and this person reported it to Joe Pa, who reported it to the two gentleman that stepped down yesterday. Apparently, they kind of swept it under the rug and that's why they're in trouble.
and according to the grand jury investigation, there are a minimum of 10 victims.

soo ... guessing the fact those two guys resigned pretty much means this guy is guilty ... :(
10 minimum, and the maximum number is frightening... this predator worked with children for years and years, so who knows.
Everyone who had any knowledge of this needs be fired asap... The longer this is drawn out, the worse and worse the school looks. Imagine being a parent now with your kid who's a senior in high school trying to figure out what college to go to... I grew up in western PA, and have always liked PSU, but I'd have trouble sending him/her there. And not for fear of something like this happening, but just the fact that there are the type of people who would cover this up in high positions there... says a lot about their character.
was like a picture

yup ... only catholics can do something about it too ...
what i find sad is that these guys that covered it up ... how do you look your family in the eye and say "yeah, i knew about it but for the sake of the fucking football program, i covered it up" ... !??? ... i would be ashamed of knowing someone like that ...
Peace

I can't understand why this guy was allowed to continue.
FOR GOD'S SAKE YOU HAVE TO DO SOMETHING WHEN YOU SUSPECT THINGS ARE NOT RIGHT AND DON'T TRUST THAT THE PERSON YOU TOLD WILL TAKE CARE OF IT

That appears to be the case here, the one Paterno reported it to was head of sports something there, so it certainly appears they were trying to cover it up to preserve their legacy
it's absolutely sickening
Hopefully both somehow lose.
On a side note: I feel bad for their football team.. They didn't ask for this.
Once I get out of this town

right, it's gross
there's a scandal right now at the Hershey school as well, same kind of thing, someone with access to the kids . . .
I read about it in the Phila Inquirer last weekend
The press is calling them young boys ... is it a University and the young men involved are 18 years and up?
Are they then consenting adults? ... will this be a defense for the Coach?
No
wow.
Why would you compare these situations?

Both cases are innocent victims being taken advantage of (and with vick, killed)
I have no sympathy for scumbags that act like this. They should be hung by their balls
