quote:The victim, who was identified in court records as John Doe 150, said that while he was attending a football camp at Penn State, Sandusky touched him as he showered. Sandusky’s finger penetrated the boy’s rectum, Doe testified in court in 2014, and the victim asked to speak with Paterno about it. Doe testified that he specifically told Paterno that Sandusky had sexually assaulted him, and Paterno ignored it. wow

Dr_Strangelove posted:One of those nasty open secrets no one wants to bring to light. Better to keep the status quo, stay employed, and just say, "Well, bad poo poo happens." Seriously, this is how every coach deals with rape and criminal charges against their players so sadly it's not exactly hard to see how it would have happened with child rape.

Jesus chriissssssssssst quote:While Sandusky and the other man left, Doe was informed by Gordon he would have to pen an apology letter to the pair for “telling lies,” and that his time at the Nittany House was likely coming to an end. As a homeless youth, Doe knew the unnamed alternative option.

ESPN posted:BELLEFONTE, Pa. -- Former Penn State President Graham Spanier testified Thursday that he issued a statement the day two of his top lieutenants were charged in the Jerry Sandusky child sexual abuse scandal, calling the allegations against them groundless, because he had developed deep trust in them. ZOOM, ENHANCE quote:Spanier, who remains a Penn State faculty member I am loving shocked.

the dept of education has fined Penn State $2.4 million under the Cleary Act, the largest fine ever under the act.

The Cleary act hasn't really been used very often. They fined Virginia Tech $55k for the shootings for failing to adequately warn students at the time of the attack, but it was overturned on appeal. Plus these are civil penalties, not criminal. It's basically there to make schools report campus crime statistics, but it seems fairly toothless.

Yeah that'd be pretty funny in almost any other context but it's pretty much exactly right in this case
