SIAP: So this guy writes for Hawkeye Nation?

It's a "virtue signaling" type of world these days. Easiest way possible to feel good about yourself.

The whole thing truly is in the rear-view mirror.

Only the self-righteous virtue signalers still bring it up.

Only the self-righteous virtue signalers with nothing else to blather about still bring it up.

Not to disagreeable... ;-)

We all hate what happened. Everybody has a right to that. But it's truly a shame Sandusky will be used to kick us below the belt for as long as it still hurts (inching closer to an eye-roll by the month).

Joe made psu an easy target. Nobody outside of psu cares about the bot.

True... the media loves to tear down the best of us, so that did make Joe an easy target. They were salivating at taking down the someone like Paterno. Of course people outside of PSU don't care about the BOT, they also don't care about facts. They only care about feeling better about their own crappy lives by tearing down a great man who did nothing wrong. But the truth is, the BOT served JVP up on a silver platter to save their own asses.

#2 complete BS? How? Unless I missed something Curley and Schultz plead guilty and were sent to jail. Spanier was convicted and is currently appealing the conviction. You can argue all you want about the State lost of most of the initial charges, fact remains that Curley and Schultz plead guilty to a crime severe enough to be sentenced to jail. Spin that anyway you want, fact remains they went to jail.

Curley and Schultz plead guilty to a crime because they were promised no jail time and feared the obviously tainted jury pool. They got screwed, put in a jail for a crime they didn't commit.

 

[anon_1eeb2b426hv3y]

Yesterday, on Fox News, an attorney was commenting on the basketball scandal and of course, brought up how Paterno covered up for Sandusky for years and no one questioned that statement.

Good luck finding a person still standing with the following attributes: a) with any interest in questioning it, b) who is actually worth a darn.

 

[Gnat91]

You know, Kirk Ferenz tried to cover up a rape to protect his football players. How many people heard about that? Probably not many outside of Iowa. Because no one gives a shit about Iowa or Ferenz.

 

[zwick19050]

Had our BOT acted competently, the damage would have been largely limited, as it should have been, to Sandusky alone. They turned the Sandusky Scandal into the Penn State/Paterno Scandal.

That is what happens when kids are getting abused in the PSU locker room and a coach walks in on them.

No matter what the BOT did, everyone outside of PSU would still hate PSU and you would still be crying about the BOT. Joe Fed up.

Please explain how Joe effed up. Facts please. Also, why did the AG say he did nothing wrong??

 

[Howie'81]

After I told him he was arrogant, condescending, sanctimonious, and writing falsehoods, I asked him how he liked the end of the game the other night. I said it was sweet, right?

Then he responded by telling me I'm part of a cult to which I responded, "1,178 yards in two games. Wow!"

Truth is that's all these guys really care about. They're p*ssed off that we can kick their asses with regularity now. They don't lose a minute of sleep over the kids.

 

[PSU65]

And John Feinstein, writing in today's Wash. Post about the basketball scandal, had to get Sandusky in the conversation--calling the Sandusky scandal "arguably the worst and most tragic incident in NCAA history, the Lions weren't even taken off TV. Only taking away a school's ability to compete and make money will get people's attention." Not once did he even mention Michigan State U.

The hatred is palpable. Miserable people they are. By the way, can someone tell me how you can conflate this basketball scandal with Sandusky? The 2 things couldn't be more different.

He needed to tell MM to go to the police. If MM went the police the PSU would have been in the clear regardless of what MM saw or what the police found.


The AG is an elected position. It was politics. Joe was gone at that point and there was nothing the AG could do to Joe.

You already answered you question. Hatred. That hate existed long before Sandusky and it had nothing to do with the BOT. It won't go away. Might as well embrace it. I would try to beat teams 100-0 if possible. 100-0 or 3-2, they will complain.

I've heard that, and he is obviously guilty. There is too much evidence against him. Just don't ask me to quote any of that evidence.

MM was an adult. His changing story aside, he said he knew what he saw was a bad thing. So he needed someone to tell him what to do?? You must know MM since you're shifting his responsibilities into Joe. Also, why don't you hold McQueary's father and Dr. Dranov to the same standard??

And thanks for pointing out the AG is a political position. That's the root of the problem.

 

[pandaczar12]

And you are basing this on what? The ever changing MM stories? The victim who is on the record saying nothing happened? Or the ~10 people who were involved that did not act as if a kid was being abused in the locker room.

Also, why did you say "kids"? Which victims specifically do you think were abused in the locker room?

This is pure hindsight bias. If MM saw something that required reporting to the police, its his responsibly to do so. Not the guy who received a watered down version the next day. PSU would have been in the clear if the BOT didn't completely screw up the situation.

Joe was not gone at the point the AG said he acted appropriately.

And this is the crux of the whole problem. MM DIDN'T see anything worth reporting as confirmed by Dr. Dranov who asked him THREE times if he saw anything sexual and all THREE times MM said no. Of course this doesn't fit the media narrative so you never see this.

Serious questions:

1. Did MM F up?
2. Did McQueary Sr F up?
3. Did Dr. Dranov F up?
4. Did Central Mountain HS admins F up?
5. Did Schultz F up?
6. Did Curley F up?

If JVP Fed up, then all of these individuals Fed up even more and yet you never mention them. And the media never mentions them because most people don't know who they are.

I realize that Tony DeBoef, who is a great guy and a great attorney, defends Ray Gricar, but, Ray Gricar completely fouled the investigation up at the beginning, when it SHOULD have been correctly handled.

I realize that Tony DeBoef, who is a great guy and a great attorney, defends Ray Gricar, but, Ray Gricar completely fouled the investigation up at the beginning, when it SHOULD have been correctly handled.

Wrong, DPW FAILED THE SEMINAL INVESTIGATION -- DPW is the named "Judicial Subject-Matter Expert" for the Initial Finding under PA Child Protective Services Law (they are also the Agency that the seminal "Child Abuse Hotline Report" was made to by Alycia Chambers which put the entire prescriptions and protocols of the CPSL Code into action!). But you are utterly FACTUALLY mistaken in your interpretation of the PA CPSL Code - the DPW is responsible for making the "Initial Finding", not the local DA and DPW's "Initial Finding" without question was that the 1998 Case was "UNFOUNDED" and not "Indicated" under the prescripts of the PA CPSL Code (and these DPW Findings have very precise definitions and requirements under PA CPSL Code!). Not only did PA DPW find the Report to be "UNFOUNDED", but Jerry Lauro, the PA DPW Investigator, wrote in his report that Sandusky was "100% innocent of any wrongdoing" and that the conditions of he and the child sharing the same showering facilities after a TSM Athletic Event was perfectly normal given the circumstances!

DA Gricar was unequivocally correct that there was no over-coming DPW's Finding and Report under PA Law as DPW is the NAMED "Judicial Subject-Matter Expert" to make the "Initial Finding" under the applicable law, the PA CPSL Code.

You are FACTUALLY full of $hit, not a single person was ever convicted of a crime related to some obligation of PSU or any of its Executives "Failure to Report" or some made up "Conspiracy" by a corrupt and abusive, self-serving and self-dealing PA lawyer-turned-politician OAG regarding a "cover-up" of the supposed Criminal FTR, you lying POS jack@ss, monkey-boy and tool of the corrupt and indecent (the latter accusation being particularly laughable given that it was prove at trial beyond any question that PSU and PSU Executives DID MAKE A REPORT that qualified as a REPORT to PA's "Child Protective Services Agencies" under the prescripts of the VERY PA LAW that the corrupt OAG brought it's "malicious prosecution" charges under DESPITE having no LEGAL OBLIGATION to do so!).

Again, the corrupt OAG went 0-for-24 regarding the Felony Charges brought against PSU Administrators relative to their handling of Mike McQueary's Administrative HR Report to PSU in Feb 2001 and some supposed failed obligations of PSU in regards to the matter.....again, 0-for-24 relative to the ACTUAL FELONY CHARGES BROUGHT relative to the corrupt OAG's claim that PSU and PSU Employees failed some obligation that they had under PA Child Protective Services Law and therefore BROKE the PA CPS Law (the applicable Code the Felony Charges were brought under -- you can't have a Conspiracy to Obstruct and then cover-up a CRIME THAT WAS NEVER COMMITTED you f'ing MORON, LOW-LIFE douche-bag!).

You have yet again referenced misdemeanor counts that were not even part of the seminal charges and claims by the corrupt OAG and PA Court System and were not even brought until 2016 AND HAVE NOTHING WHATSOEVER TO DO WITH CRIMINAL FAILURE TO REPORT or the COMPLETELY MADE-UP, bull$hit Felony Charges of OBSTRUCTION, PERJURY and CONSPIRACY to cover-up the supposed "Criminal Failure to Report". One last time you spinning, lying, piece of garbage human excrement , the corrupt OAG LOST on EVERY SINGLE COUNT - 0-for-24 - related to supposed CRIMINAL FAILURES on the part of PSU the "institution" and its Senior Administrators to REPORT, or attempt to obstruct or cover-up the reporting, of Mike McQueary's 2001 Administrative HR Report to The University!!! The corrupt OAG went 0-for-24 regarding these allegations against PSU and its Administrators 100% stemming from the FALSE ALLEGATIONS of the corrupt OAG related to FALSE OBLIGATIONS that PSU and these Administrators had under Pennsylvania Child Protective Services Law!!! The MISDEMEANORS that you keep babbling about have ZERO to do with Pennsylvania Child Protective Services Law and were not brought under this CODE, nor did these charges claim that PSU, or any of its Administrators, failed any type of "Institutional Responsibility" under CPSL. IOW, you freaking stupid @ss, make-it-up-as-you-go-along, moron, the misdemeanor charges have NOTHING whatsoever to do with allegations of CRIMINAL FAILURES at PSU, unlike the seminal 24 Felony Charges brought by the ever-corrupt OAG that they went 0-for-24 on - NOR do they imply any culpability for, or responsibility to, PSU in regards to DPW's AND ITS DIRECT AGENT, TSM's, CLEAR UNCHARGED FAILURES IN THIS MATTER!

The misdemeanors you reference HAVE ZERO to do with the original and seminal charges brought by the corrupt OAG that were REJECTED by The Court - 100% of the 24 Felony Counts brought against PSU and its Senior Executives!

BTW dip$hit, just because the CORRUPT lawyer-turned-politician OAG-turned-Governor didn't bring charges against TSM is not equivalent to saying they didn't patently and obviously VIOLATE PA LAW under multiple sections of the PA CPSL Code in not advancing PSU's Official Report to this DPW-Agent Childcare Agency which was given to them concurrent with MM's reporting it to PSU via an Administrative HR Report.

IOW dip$hit, it is demonstrably provable that the CORRUPT PA OAG-turned-Governor brought FALSE CHARGES and multiple "Malicious Prosecutions" against PSU and PSU Administrators who had NO LEGAL OBLIGATION TO REPORT under the applicable Code, PA CPSL, but did IN FACT make a "Qualifying Report" under the Code to the "Care and Custody Entity" of the child in question, an Entity who was a Direct Agent of the DPW and therefore held an "Agency Relationship" with DPW under the Code......WHILE AT THE VERY SAME TIME the same CORRUPT OAG-turned-Govenor FAILED TO BRING CHARGES against The Second Mile and its Administrators/Executives DESPITE THE FACT that they bright-line VIOLATED MULTIPLE SECTIONS of the VERY PA CODE that the CORRUPT OAG-turned-Governor USED TO BRING MULTIPLE FALSE CHARGES AGAINST PSU WHO HAD NO OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE CODE AND DID IN FACT REPORT THE INCIDENT UNDER THE PRESCRIPTIONS OF THE CODE TO A QUALIFYING "DPW CHILD ABUSE HOTLINE" REPORTING ENTITY?!?!

But go figure, you've decided the innocent who have been abused by this clear political tyranny should be further abused, while the disgusting, belly-crawling, craven scum who perpetrated this disgraceful political tyranny (including illegally abusing and misusing their "public office" and powers to shield the true responsible parties for this tragedy from prosecution) should be defended and praised??? Again, go figure!
