You do understand that Sandusky was acquitted by the jury of that child molestation charge regarding this boy McQueary saw in the shower.

And you do understand that that night McQueary reported what he saw to a family physician who is a mandated reporter on child abuse and he chose based on what McQueary told him not to report it himself and also advised McQueary not to call the police but to just tell Paterno instead.

And you do understand that neither Paterno nor the other administrators were mandated reporters. None saw the incident and were getting their information from someone who himself never called 911 and whose family physician never advised to either then or after the fact.

And you do understand that Dr Raykovitz, the director of Sandusky’s 2nd Mile charity, was notified of this incident — and he was a mandated reporter, meaning that he was required by law to call and report reasonably suspected child abuse but also that his call would actually be received and investigated.

And you do understand that the boy in the shower, 14 at the time, is now 26 and came forward subsequently and said that he was not molested that night or any other time by Sandusky.

And you do know that Louis Freeh was a fundraiser and sponsor for Sandusky’s 2nd Mile charity during all those years. Are any of you accusing him of being an enabler???

Well, now you do know and have no excuse — so go back to sleep.

So, in other words, if one is not a legally-designated "mandated reporter" one is existentially absolved of the responsibility of a being a decent human being.

Got it.

You do understand that Sandusky’s in a supermax prison doing 60 years on 45 counts of sexual abuse on young boys, right?

What the heck is wrong with you?
