Here’s Video of a Reporter Knocking on the Door of Jerry Sandusky’s House This Morning
All, College Football, Penn State Scandal, Perverts, Sick and Twisted Individuals, Video November 7th. 2011, 2:11pm
The Penn State Board of Trustees probably vomited when they saw him in Penn State gear. I’ll assume the school has been notified that if they see him on campus again – he was there last week, Dan Wetzel reports – shoot to kill.

is he in a State Penn snuggie?
November 7th, 2011 at 2:20 PM
school has been notified that if they see him on campus again – he was there last week, Dan Wetzel reports
So, presumably, that ginger head coach who saw him raping that poor kid spotted sir-rapes-a-lot when he was benching last week? NIIIIICE.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:20 PM
why? i mean, they didn’t report him for years so…
November 7th, 2011 at 2:21 PM
How do you tell yourself you’re innocent when people SAW YOU and will probably testify to it? On what level of delusion, make believe or sheer ego must you exist?
November 7th, 2011 at 2:23 PM
Penn State Board of Trustees probably vomited when they got pricing quotes from PR companies.

If you were this guy’s wife is there ANY way you let him stay in your house with your kids? I know you’d want to believe you weren’t married to someone as disgusting as this but is it even possible to let him stay there while this is happening?
November 7th, 2011 at 2:24 PM

His “Alleged Child Molester” 3 piece hasnt come in yet.

How does an alcoholic wake up with a hangover everyday and tell himself he’s not a drunk?
How does a coke addict do the same when they’re stealing their parents watches and cars to make quick cash to restock…for one day.
This guy has serious mental health issues, that goes beyond sports. Not justifying what he did. He deserves what is coming. But you have to put that into perspective when you ask…”why?”
November 7th, 2011 at 2:26 PM
I cannot wrap my head around the Fact that he saw Sandusky fucking a kid, reported it (though not to the police), then saw nothing happen. And he stayed with the program after all that
November 7th, 2011 at 2:26 PM

November 7th, 2011 at 2:27 PM
Look at that smug look on the piece of shit’s face.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:28 PM
True dat Trey. And honestly I shouldn’t be surprised because I have worked with the populations that you describe. But it never ceases to stun me…
November 7th, 2011 at 2:28 PM
I’m just really very social.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:28 PM
Look at that smug look on the piece of shit’s face.
Wonder if he’ll have the same smug look on his face when Avon Barksdale is tearing him a new asshole in prison?
November 7th, 2011 at 2:29 PM
I can’t believe Paterno isn’t going to be charged. Dude really is “untouchable” in that state.

I can’t believe Paterno isn’t going to be charged. Dude really is “untouchable” in that state.
Meh.. the state will save a ton of money that way… he’ll resign in disgrace, and live out the remaining 5-10 years of his life knowing that he probably could have prevented dozens of other assaults if he had done the right thing. Punishment enough.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:30 PM
Under what criminal charge?
November 7th, 2011 at 2:31 PM
Shultz was in charge of the campus police.
Doesn’t matter… once ginger found out the campus police weren’t going to charge him, he should have gone to another department, FBI, CIA… someone who would do something. The guy was lifting weights 10 feet from ginger’s office last WEEK.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:32 PM
he’ll resign in disgrace, and live out the remaining 5-10 years of his life
I would be shocked if he lived that long after he retires, regardless of when it is. People that work for so long, then retire always seem to pass away quickly (see: Rooney, Andy)
November 7th, 2011 at 2:32 PM
Isn’t it a crime to not inform the police whenever anyone is suspected of child abuse?
November 7th, 2011 at 2:32 PM
I think that goes to show how clean ANY sport is. Reporting to the powers over the police, probably because that is what is drilled into their headas.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:33 PM
Under what criminal charge?
Failure to report, criminal conspiracy, perjury?
Dunno, hopefully something.
They should probably rename the Gary Schultz Child Care Center.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:33 PM
Uhhh something similar to the charges of the AD and president’s. Fuckin scumbag.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:34 PM
In most states and federally it can be, if you have direct knowledge. Merely thinking someone is a child rapist isn’t enough, if it was Tom Brady would have gone done years ago.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:34 PM
that reporter should have taken a giant dump on his front step.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:34 PM
I can’t fucking stand to see any video or pictures of Jerry Sandusky right now that don’t involve him doing a perp walk on his way to prison to get what he deserves.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:35 PM
Paterno should resign but I don’t hold him criminally liable.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:35 PM
What do PSU message boards look like? Anyone venture in one of those yet?
November 7th, 2011 at 2:35 PM
He must pass out every time he remembers this commercial:

Probably not that one.

November 7th, 2011 at 2:36 PM
HE WAS INFORMED THAT A 60 YEAR OLD MAN WAS HAVING SEX WITH A TEN YEAR OLD IN A SHOWER!
November 7th, 2011 at 2:36 PM
At this point, it’s fair to say that anyone and everyone involved with this story is dirty. The degree of dirt is debatable, but no one (not the eyewitnesses nor Paterno nor the school officials) comes away from this clean.
BTW, will this force PSU to pull those “We are Penn State” ads for their Online School? I don’t think anyone wants to hang those diplomas out.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:36 PM
Well, Papa Joe had an eye witness come to him and inform him that he saw Sandusky ass raping a young boy. Sounds like direct knowledge to me.
Did anyone read the Grand Jury statement about the janitor?
November 7th, 2011 at 2:37 PM
CIA
Probably not that one.
They’re everywhere dude… YOU DON’T EVEN REALIZE….
/conspiracy theory’d
//Seriously though, I was being grandiose, I was kidding about the CIA
November 7th, 2011 at 2:37 PM
I’ve seen statistics that estimate that between 35-40% of spouses of child molesters are aware of what their spouse is doing.
As to this:
No. There are a number of states with reporting requirements…Paterno fulfilled any and all legal obligations he had when he reported the incident to the AD. He did the bare minimum required by law. Not absolving him of blame whatsoever…but legally, he’s already been cleared by a grand jury.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:37 PM
Comments are open on the Gary Schultz Child Care Center facebook page. I doubt that lasts.
Every hour this story gets sicker and more depressing.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:38 PM

When you have kids you will no longer feel like this…
November 7th, 2011 at 2:39 PM
Wearing Penn State gear.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Speechless.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:39 PM
If Paterno went to court to testify, it would all be hearsay. Now if he was questioned…like the AD and the other guy, and he LIED about hearing about it…that would be perjury.
That’s why the other two are in trouble.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:39 PM
That’s the PA law fo reporting. McQuery/Paterno met their legal requirement when they met with the other two jabronies.
Now, should they have followed up/gone to other people when nothing happened – probably. But legally they met their requirements.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:39 PM
There have to be some official memoranda or emails on this topic via sunshine laws. There is almost always somebody who alludes to it or talks about it someplace and that’ll be available. Right now hopefully a few journalists have supeounded (sic) the email servers from PSU athletics for this whole period. I know Grandpa Joe probably still uses an abacus and sea scrolls but I bet some administrator somewhere put something on paper/email.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:39 PM
Punishment enough.
When you have kids you will no longer feel like this…
Paterno wasn’t the one fucking up the kids. He’s a coward, but come on, let’s not get carried away and lump him in the same category as Sandusky. Paterno probably has dozens of grandkids.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:40 PM
Even Frank knows it’s wrong to diddle kids!
/always sunny’d
November 7th, 2011 at 2:40 PM
Precise legal minimum. That just infuriates me.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:40 PM
all of this.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:40 PM
That’s all well in good bunt it doesn’t excuse him for not escalating it after he saw nothing happening
November 7th, 2011 at 2:41 PM
Not just a cap or a shirt. Completely decked out. I bet he’s wearing PSU socks. Unreal.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:41 PM
And, in fact, Paterno is going to testify to just what he did…which will be the noose around the neck of those 2.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:41 PM
we need a legal post by JHS
November 7th, 2011 at 2:41 PM
*but not bunt
November 7th, 2011 at 2:41 PM
Of course there is cause and effect there. Andy Rooney retired because I am sure he was really sick and only had so long to live. The same thing happened to Steve Jobs…he retired and died a month later.

Bear Bryant died soon after he retired
November 7th, 2011 at 2:42 PM
Was that specifically what was said to him, or did the witness simply say he saw something inappropriate? Because if he didn’t specifically say what he saw, and was just vague about it, then there’s no direct knowledge.
And also, technically JoePa did what he was supposed to do, he reported it to a superior. As shitty as it is, he’s covered by moving it up the chain.
It’s not right, but that’s the legality of it.
/Paralegal’d
November 7th, 2011 at 2:43 PM
And I bet none of them attended any of Sandusky’s camps.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:43 PM
It’s quite possible that after more parties come forward there may have been other laws broken, so I think to absolve Joe Pa at this point is very premature. He’s still in Captain Edward John Smith territory IMO.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:43 PM
Was that specifically what was said to him, or did the witness simply say he saw something inappropriate?
“child” and “sexual in nature” were both in the sentence told to and by paterno from my understanding. that’s all you really need to hear.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:43 PM
I think the word you were looking for was “papyrus”.
Seriously, to get these monitors, you might be legally blind.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:43 PM
I only practice civil law. Gator Trey would be the go to guy for crim law.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:43 PM
Precise legal minimum.
Here’s what I don’t get: guy shows up at Paterno’s door and says “I just saw Coach Sandusky raping a 10-year old boy.” He calls the AD and the VP. WHY don’t they call the police then and there? Yes, it’s horrific it’s happened at their school, but reporting it quickly gets them to say that they’re victims of Sandusky’s behavior. That he duped them and used them to prey on children. There’s a minor hit but PSU comes out of it okay and there’s no stigma against the school or the program.
How is that worse than covering it up, lying on the stand and going through what they’re about to go through now??
November 7th, 2011 at 2:44 PM
For those ready to move on, I’ve found the perfect sorbet to cleanse the palate: Leeann Tweeden in Plaboy.
NSFW of course.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:44 PM
Totally agree, but any competent defender will tear it apart as hearsay and blah blah blah.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:45 PM
All that needed to be said was “Sandusky, small child, shower” Sounds like red flags to me.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:45 PM
Paterno wasn’t the one fucking up the kids. He’s a coward, but come on, let’s not get carried away and lump him in the same category as Sandusky. Paterno probably has dozens of grandkids.
Paterno is the main authority figure, and he did the ABSOLUTE MINIMUM, if just one more child was touched after that than he is partially responsible, like I said, if you had a child and know that could have happened, you would feel differently
November 7th, 2011 at 2:45 PM
Unless it comes out that Paterno actually witnessed Sandusky diddling a kid…there is ZERO chance that JoePa is going to get charged with anything.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:45 PM
But this has nothing to do with the legal system. His job is to get kids to play for Penn State. I don’t know how I would want my kid playing there with people that will overlook sexual abuse of children when my child probably has a choice of playing at a number of schools.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:45 PM
Joe Pa sounds like a real P.O.S. Sorry. Rock the boat and get that to the police man. Uncommon times call for uncommon courage. Sick.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:45 PM
There will undoubtedly be numerous children (possibly now adults) coming forward. This scumbag didn’t just get caught the two times he tried this.
/forget the prison ass rapings…I’ll allow TBL into a clock tower with a rifle.

i would argue that we’ve crossed the hump, it’s all just annoying as fuck right now.

Paterno’s son Scott, who is a complete right-wing whack job, is acting as JoePa’s legal advisor. Scott once formally accused Bill Clinton of conspiring to commit 56 murders.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:46 PM
Paterno did not try to:
1. Have a known pedophile arrested and prosecuted
2. Stop a pedophile from running a children’s charity
3. Stop the pedophile using school facilities after knowing an incident took place
4. Stop the pedophile from organizing sleep overs at PSU
5. Report the PSU cover up when Sandusky was not charged
November 7th, 2011 at 2:46 PM
The more that this story is talked about, the sicker I get. Why hasn’t Corbett said a damn thing yet?
November 7th, 2011 at 2:47 PM
All of what BFFREDO said.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:47 PM
I certainly wouldn’t either, but that comment was going to the people that were mentioning the situation of Paterno not getting the same charges as the two other guys.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:47 PM

This. He was heavily involved with the Lynn Swann campaign for a while, until Swann’s people told him to buzz off because he was making crazy statements such as suggesting that Ed Rendell had had an affair with Hillary Clinton.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:49 PM
He should be shit canned…not allowed to resign.

November 7th, 2011 at 2:51 PM
So THATS why Rendell got a divorce!
November 7th, 2011 at 2:52 PM
On the plus side this proves that Paterno is still capable of complicated decision making.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:52 PM
I’m just glad the sports bloggers now have a month’s worth of easy page views. Had no idea what they’d be beating us to death with otherwise.

Is that sarcasm? You’ll get your playoff! BCS! Sanchez is elite! posts soon enough.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:54 PM
Here is what Scott said
This is frustrating, because as most people have said, Paterno did alert his superiors to misconduct. However, nothing was done about it and the perp was hanging around the facilities for the next decade. If I hear about this and I am going to do the bear minimum and be OK with my superiors not reporting this, I at the very least, want this dude away from the program.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:54 PM

so? when’s the last time college football went 18-24 months without a scandal popping up? it’s basically wash, rinse, repeat on these things.
November 7th, 2011 at 2:55 PM
Again, what I think is even worse than the whole argument here, is that this exact scenario WAS ACTUALLY IN FRONT OF THE CENTRE DA 4 YEARS PRIOR. He elected not to pursue it despite Sandusky’s entire “I’m sorry – it won’t happen again” deal which HAPPENED WITH A POLICE PRESENCE.
That DA is nowhere to be found (literally) and there is practically zero explanation why is was ignored without prosecution

In 2000, State House Democratic leader Bill DeWeese ranted loudly to a reporter in a hotel bar that “Ed Rendell has been fucking my wife!,” who at the time was a comely blond lobbyist, Holly Kinser, frequently seen with Rendell. The accusation, since recanted by DeWeese, was denied by Kinser and Rendell; his political career—and the Rendells’ marriage — kept rolling along.
What a fantastic paragraph.

I haven’t seen this angle yet, but that is also pretty despicable if that is the case as well. I guess when this happens in a town where the football team is literally the only draw to the town (outside of actually attending the school) the overlooking of crimes goes far and wide.

November 7th, 2011 at 3:00 PM
How did police not investigate this guy the first time someone accused him of inappropriate behavior? Same with the guy that kidnapped and raped Jaycee Dugard. He was a CONVICTED pedophile and rapist and the parole officers barely even talked to him! I thought cops become cops because they want to put bad guys in jail?
November 7th, 2011 at 3:00 PM
Hey, TST managed to get past the moderation police.
November 7th, 2011 at 3:01 PM
I have not been following this story too close, so forgive me if I am missing something, but why didn’t the witness who reported it to Paterno stop there? Why not call the cops in that exact moment he knew something inappropriate was happening. Or try and stop it. I have trouble understanding how his first move is to tell the head coach.
This whole thing is fucking sickening. I hope PSU gets the Death Penalty.

Jerry Sandusky, the dean of Linebacker U, is leaving Penn State after 32 years to devote himself to a different kind of coaching
“If Sandusky did not have such a human side, there would be a temptation around Happy Valley to canonize him: Saint Sandusky, leader of linebackers, molder of men.”

Linebackers Are Jerry Sandusky’s Business, But Not His Only Business
“Part of Sandusky’s success obviously stems from the Penn State linebacker tradition, which almost assures a fresh supply of top talent every year. That talent then gets top training from Sandusky.”

Banging anything warm and calling into sports talk radio instead of governing…Ed Rendell is everything I’d hope to be if elected to high office

Wow, look at that! Baloo and Sandusky both like giving coconuts to little boys.

Yes, this scandal of a guy ass raping little boys is right on par with Cam Newton taking money from a booster.

No… which NCAA rule did they violate? I suppose they could commit seppuku… but aside from that, I don’t see much happening.
November 7th, 2011 at 3:05 PM
Not one iota of this is an NCAA violation. Just a human-kind violation.

This will be handled the same way the Declan Sullivan case was handled at Notre Dame… by the authorities… not the NCAA.
November 7th, 2011 at 3:07 PM
Does the NCAA even have the power to give the death penalty for something like this? I guess they could call it “lack of institutional control”, but wouldn’t the criminal charges supercede any punishment the NCAA could administer?

Bare with me here — did they violate any NCAA rules? Clearly this is worse than SMU, OSU, USC, Miami ect — but those were NCAA rules. Was Baylor put on NCAA violations when the teammate killed the other? I am actually asking that, I do not know the answer.

Lack of institutional control only refers to an institution that fails at every level to meet NCAA rules. As has been pointed out, as disgusting both the alleged actions of Sandusky and the blind eye given by the administration, they are not NCAA violations.
November 7th, 2011 at 3:11 PM
I believe they were.
November 7th, 2011 at 3:13 PM
As per wiki:
November 7th, 2011 at 3:14 PM
Probably the stiffest penalties handed out since SMU.
November 7th, 2011 at 3:14 PM
Although, I can’t imagine the NCAA ever felt there was a need to include a rule stating that it’s wrong for an assistant coach to molest children in campus buildings and that it’s also wrong for that school’s administration to look the other way.
But even though it’s not a written violation, there are certain things that a school’s administration has to know, must know, are wrong. And turning a blind eye to an assistant coach forcing himself on young boys is certainly one of those things. And while I doubt we are talking about a Death Penalty scenario, I do think the NCAA will be involved with this somehow.
November 7th, 2011 at 3:14 PM
Set two alarm clocks….
November 7th, 2011 at 3:15 PM

I looked it up and they were. It seems funny to me the term of “lack of institutional control” — like you are out of control if your players take a non working job, a envelope with cash, trade tats for memoribila, use an agent for whatever reason but somehow “Former legendary coach with strong ties to the program rapes 10 year old boys while high powered school officals turn a blind eye” doesn’t fall into that.

So Baylor saw that something terrible went down and did a massive investigation into the program — does that mean that PSU will have to do the same?
November 7th, 2011 at 3:16 PM
Any PSU fans that are defending Paterno or talking about “finding all the facts” in reference to Sandusky should kindly see themselves out. It’s like irish blindly defending Miami when all those allegations came out, only 100x worse because 10 year old kids were getting fucking RAPED IN SHOWERS AT THE PSU FACILITIES
November 7th, 2011 at 3:16 PM
Col. Parker, see Dr. Tom’s paragraph. The sanctions sound as though they were related to improper payments. I don’t believe there have been any allegations yet of Penn State involving payments one way or the other. It doesn’t sound like players were involved at all. So this is a different situation from Baylor’s.

if you can’t trust the icon of the program to turn in a diddling coordinator (or even take his keys for the athletic facilities away, for that matter), why do they get the benefit of the doubt when it comes to NCAA integrity?
November 7th, 2011 at 3:19 PM
I think as in with every other decision the NCAA makes, they will consider their pocket book first before coming down with sanctions. But I think something needs to happen. If USC gets a two year post season ban and a loss of scholarships for 3 additional years beyond that for ruining “amateurism”, they better come down on a program for this…it is pretty clear a blind eye was turned for a long time and the people in charge of the program were complicit in overlooking these crimes.
November 7th, 2011 at 3:19 PM
Bat (Bait?) signal? I was familiar with this case back then and a case could not be put together. This comes on the heels of a very tense relationship with the DA’s office post-Bobby Ingram where views of the program, and Paterno, significantly changed. I can say with a high degree of first hand conversation, Penn State was not, nor would not, be protected by that particular DA.
Like I said earlier, the Sandusky thing was not an unknown in the area. How you seem to have missed it is beyond me.
November 7th, 2011 at 3:21 PM
Baylor’s NCAA violations may have come to light because of the Dennehy murder…but the hammer came down because of blatant pay-to-play schemes directly oversaw by Dave Bliss. Not to mention, Bliss was personally footing the bill for 2 of the players.
The Baylor and Penn State situations are not analogous….yet. I suspect that the Penn State program is going to be put under the NCAA microscope for sure…but if the only facts that come to light are what we already know, there will absolutely be no NCAA penalty.

I don’t disagree.
November 7th, 2011 at 3:34 PM
Sandusky’s biggest mistake was that he isn’t apart of the SEC. ESPN would just sweep this under the rug. That or rank him slightly above Michael Jackson in the Child Fucker BCS Standings. Causing all the more uproar since they tend to overrate everything SEC. Which of course we all know is bullshit since Michael Jackson has proven time and time again to have the best Defense in the world. Michael Jackson was basically an SEC team.

Been busy, but have skimmed the posts today.
SG, yes it was known around State College, especially those around 2nd Mile, which is why much fault lies with those around him, and especially Paterno.
Roeth, I know that a case was tried to be put together because I talked about it with him after catching rumors for a prominent friend who works with 2nd Mile. If a successful prosecution could have been put together based on that first reported incident, I have the utmost confidence that it would have been. Part of that is due to Bobby Engram earning the “Bobby Ingrate” nickname after Paterno intervened on his behalf and then not so much as a thank you was extended. That DA was as beholden to the football team as you are to the Cleveland Browns. He was most definitely not a politician. On another front, I know that he was a staunch Catholic who became non-practicing due to way the church handled many of their own issues. When you combine the two, I wholeheartedly think that if a successful prosecution could be put together, based on that initial claim, one would have been.

Spencer, I like this one:
I used to clean the showers at Penn State and let me tell you, that dude would leave one heck of a mess in there. In fact, it was almost like there were little kids horsing around in there. I am disappointed that the book makes no mention of this, as Jerry used to come by and tell me how the showers at Penn State were his favorite part of the football complex. Why no shower love for me, Jerry? I used to clean up after you every single week.

Someone mentioned the “death penalty” for PSU athletics. While I understand the disgust at Sundusky’s actions and the lack of follow up or intentional cover up, it’s not related to breaking NCAA rules. It’s just against the law. They should all be put in jail and they should throw away the key. Penn State just took over for the Catholic Church because that institution is going to get sued for the next 20 years, and it will be paying out millions and millions of dollars of damages. Might be worse than the death penalty.
