well to be fair, the legal system won't punish someone for selling a jersey

it will punish these assholes (minus paterno). ncaa rules aren't really needed.

PSU should still be punished by the ncaa though. somehow.

yeah, i don't either. he kind of made it even harder for them to do that by saying "i don't want them to waste any time thinking about me."

you've known about it for 9 years.

since when is a middle-aged man showering in a locker room with a 10-year-old (we could stop here if need be) and touching him inappropriately something that can be overlooked?

there was a good quote in an article by howard bryant about the way they followed up on this (which was limited to telling sandusky not to bring children onto campus with him... a directive they acknowledge was unenforceable):
Exactly. And Paterno downplayed it to his superiors even more, which I think makes this officially a cover-up operation too. I don't see how after the shower incidents he or anyone else wouldn't have adopted an interest in putting Sandusky behind bars. It isn't prudent and is very fishy.

What bugs me deeply as well is how the police handled the one situation where the boy's mom called them about Sandusky showering with her son. Apparently bear hugging and soap battles with a naked child are not worth a very large-scale investigation.

which is what makes this so interesting:

Quote:
One of the questions surrounding the sex-abuse case against Jerry Sandusky is why a former district attorney chose not to prosecute the then-Penn State assistant coach in 1998 after reports surfaced that he had inappropriate interactions with a boy.





The answer is unknowable because of an unsolved mystery: What happened to Ray Gricar, the Centre County, Pa., district attorney?

Gricar went missing in April 2005. The murky circumstances surrounding his disappearance — an abandoned car, a laptop recovered months later in a river without a hard drive, his body was never found — have spawned Web sites, television programs and conspiracy theories. More than six years later, the police still receive tips and reports of sightings. The police in central Pennsylvania continue to investigate even though Gricar’s daughter, Lara, successfully petitioned in July to have her father declared legally dead so the family could find some closure and begin dividing his estate.

Just read the whole thing today. The fact that so many kids testified of having him grab their left leg in the car means he is fucked and will soon burn in hell.

If it were the right leg then I'd say he's free to go.

Gricar was caught up in a huge mafia/gambling investigation. It's kinda well known around here he was a victim of knowing too much (nothing to do with Sandusky).

Well how do we know the mafia isn't involved with this? Ever wonder why Paterno kept so quiet? Or gets paid so much? Or still has a job after all these years?

You think Sandusky does this to his own kids, and they think it's normal?

Read up on the Children of God for a similar situation. Family sex is encouraged

Well it's a rumor, but he was investigating a gambling ring that was tied to all sorts of crazy shit. Since they couldn't find his body or any paperwork they just said he killed himself and shut the case.

I'm certain that's a coverup too by the state police.

the district attorney was investigating a gambling ring?

...were there police detectives who went missing too?

and they didn't shut the case until the daughter requested they declare him dead i thought.

Not sure about police detectives, they were working with NJ (it might have had a smuggling thing going on with it too, involving liquor).

Right, the family asked it be shut. The entire story is, as you said, bizarre but I don't think it has much to do with Sandusky here.

Spanier's either resigning or firing tonight, btw. Board meets at 7:30.

Yeah.. the Phoenix family were in that cult. I think it was River who talked about sleeping with his mother. Some truly fucked up things there.

Months later, the laptop was found in the Susquehanna River without its hard drive, which was discovered later. It was too damaged to yield any information. On the fourth anniversary of his disappearance, investigators revealed that a search of his home computer yielded a history of Internet searches for phrases like “how to wreck a hard drive,” according to a report at the time in The Centre Daily Times.
