Pedophile update: from the Detroit Freep. http://www.freep.com/article/20111208/N ... nav%7Chead

Sandusky was arrested Wednesday and charged with 12 new sex abuse counts involving two new alleged victims. In all, he faces more than 50 charges......
....The latest accusers are the ninth and 10th alleged victims described in grand jury reports that claim Sandusky befriended and then molested boys he met through his Second Mile charity for troubled youth.

And to satisfy my conspiracy theory self, Joe Paterno had business ties with the Second Mile charity that served as a meat market for Sandusky. This according to FOXsports. http://msn.foxsports.com/collegefootbal ... ers-120511

Around the same time a graduate assistant allegedly approached Paterno in 2002 to say he had witnessed Sandusky raping a boy in the locker room showers, Paterno and three fellow investors, including longtime Second Mile board chairman Robert Poole, had just secured financing to build a $125 million luxury retirement community, according to public records.

Paterno also was partners with this team on developing a golf resort and nearby restaurant and inn. He has also partnered with other current and former Second Mile board members on a bottled water company, a coaching website and a chain of convenience stores

Makes me wonder what was harder for Joe Paterno, that is right hand man on the football team was a pedophile or that blowing the whistle on it could have cost Joe money? Hope every day is one full of pain and suffering for you Joe, and I hope you have a lot of those days left before you die and burn.

If Joe knew, and did nothing, isn't that obstruction of justice at a minimum from a legal standpoint? Plenty more to be said from the moral standpoint, but couldn't he be formally charged as well here if he was the person in charge and had knowledge and did nothing? I'd be assembling a team of attorneys if I were Joe, if he isn't already.

I agree and I'm sure he has had his team in place for awhile now...

Sandusky and his wife were commenting on his innocence and looking forward to proving it in court. I don't like your chances Jerry - what ya might wanna practice working on is your defense once ya get to prison - your fellow prisoners have their own system of justice for dealing with child molesters.

Listening to these Sandusky interviews, this guy is the scariest kind of child abuser - the kind that thinks he's actually doing it out of love for the kids. I want to hurl.

I have no idea what is lawyer is thinking letting him do these interviews...it's pretty clear he doesn't even understand right from wrong. Guy is a psycopathic monster. Which makes it even less believable that JoePa and the university didn't know what kind of man he really is. People like that don't try very hard to hide their actions because they don't believe they are doing anything wrong.

This definitely is among the most revolting stories I've ever heard in my life.

That one I'm still not so sure on. Think about it - Sandusky's in his late 60s. JoePa's in his 80s. Most of Sandusky's buddies are old jocks like him -late 60's - early 70's in age. I heard a radio piece last night (Outside the Lines) in which Schaap interviewed a few of his friends and they were all old football buddies who were adamant that they didn't have a clue he could be capable of this - and I believe them, actually. All of the people involved (as per my earlier post about the relative ignorance of the old-school admin in how to deal with this in the first place) are the last remnants of a simpler age - the early boomers and their parents.

It's kind of tough to describe what I mean - it's just not a very savvy generation - and I'm not meaning that in a negative way. The concept of "communication" was not a very high priority back then. Silence and minding your own business was more of a code of sorts back then than is considered acceptable now. Sandusky was a bald-faced liar, I think we can agree on that. Yet it is not much of a stretch to belive that those in his social circle took what he said at face value.

As far as Joe himself - he's already obliquely admitted he knew more than he wanted to know.- but of course he worked with Sandusky on a daily basis...
