And You Thought the Penn State Sex Abuse Scandal Couldn't Get Any Worse!

Jerry Sandusky: the flags were there all along

The list of enablers seems to grow by the minute... the beloved JoePa may now even face charges himself for not reporting Sandusky.  Then there's the crimes themselves: suffice to say, the kind that get you killed your first week in prison. What an unmitigated nightmare for sleepy State College, Pa, the entire NCAA, and above all the victims. 

But the sad fact this case could get a whole lot uglier...

Obviously there's more questions than answers at this point: like how the wife, family, and Penn State associates of Jerry Sandusky all justified covering for such hideous crimes. About the only ones not asking these things might be the mob of morally-retarded Penn State fans who actually rioted over the firing of Paterno yesterday. 

But recall that the OSU Buckeyes lost Jim Tressel earlier this year because he covered for players selling a couple jerseys… what did they possibly expect at Penn State, then. Paterno had plenty of warnings, and somehow just didn’t do the right thing. Get over it, Penn State fans- a luxury the victims -who may number as many as 17- will probably never enjoy.

What now?

One thing people are talking about today is how the initial 1998 investigation into the vile predatory habits of Jerry Sandusky went nowhere. All of us -along with all his subsequent targets- are left wondering why nothing ever happened when there'd been firsthand witnesses and even a direct admission.

Seems that thirteen years ago when Center Country DA 

Ray Gricar was working the case against Sandusky, he quite mysteriously failed to ever bring charges, despite the wealth of evidence...  but it doesn't look like anybody's going to get to ask him about it, except for St Peter maybe:

Ray Gricar, the Centre County DA at the time of the 1998 investigation into Victim 6's allegations, has been missing since 2005 and was declared legally dead in July of this year. 

We may never know why Gricar did not press charges against Sandusky, despite Sandusky's admissions—per the grand jury report—that he had showered naked with the boy and hugged him. 

Ray Gricar (Deadspin)

The hard drive from Gricar's computer turned up on the banks of the Susquehanna River six months after his disappearance, according to this story Ganim wrote three years ago, when she was still at the State College, Pa.-based Centre County Daily Times. Whatever was on that hard drive will forever be the subject of speculation now...

Gricar just as mysteriously went missing after telling his girlfriend he was to go for a day off drive in the park... the DA was never seen nor heard from again. His Red Mini Cooper was found soon afterward, cellphone still on the seat.

Investigators said internet searches conducted from Ray Gricar's house on that day he vanished in 2005 include "how to wreck a hard drive" and "water damage to notebook computer", among other things. Three months after Gricar's disappearance, his government-issued notebook was found by a fisherman, sans hard drive. Three months after that, that heavily damaged hard drive was found along the same river's banks. The tough Gricar had just busted a major heroin ring, and was at the crest of his career- why on Earth would he be afraid to go after a child molester?

Recall a few years back, where they busted that Belgian child-sex ring... one that not only swapped playthings amongst themselves -often their own children- but enforced the security of the operation with violent, mafia-style manipulation and even vengeance killings?

Seems this case is beginning to acquire a similar stench... Sandusky certainly had his helpers, and now perhaps we'll be finding out who all they were, as well as just how far they were willing to go to protect the oh-so-very sick and dangerous Jerry Sandusky.

I have another question:

In 1999 Sandusky retired and was given an emeritus title. He would have been 55 years old. The average 55 year old faculty member is probably not going to be able to a. retire and b. get an emeritus title.

I’d love to see the records and correspondence concerning that cracked open.

[PrincessB]

oop. Mine was more of a statement to ponder also.

[Reaganite Republican]

Allways do, with the exception of copyrighted materials

[BigSkyFreeper]

If you can find a connection between Barney Frank and one underaged child, bring it forth. Otherwise you are over-reaching.

[ken5050]

Agree...another thing that needs to be done immediately is to audit the Second Mile foundation. They raised millions, and gawd knows where the $$ went, or what it was spent on..

No way the coach..McQuady (sp?) can stay as well..he needs to be gone..

BTW..are you related to Princess Nancy? (g)

[isthisnickcool]

Seems to me that this Gricar guy could have been murdered. We are talking about big money here. College football at this level is a serious business. It is not in any way shape or form connected to educating anyone. It is theatre. Big theatre that pays big money. More than enough money to get a fellow killed.

Penn states entire football program should be scrubbed. It should be made an example of and taken apart and junked. Abolished. It has put the entire school on the block. They are going to be sued for big money. Very big money.

[gussiefinknottle]

he had a gay friend who was principal of elementary
school who ran a prostitution ring out of barney’s
apartment. barney, of course, had no idea this
was going on. however, this is the sanitized
version of events. we may never know what
really went on and what ages were spanned
in that apartment.

“Sandusky the creep ruins the end of Jo Pa’s career. Totally rots.”

WRONG. Joe Pa ruined the end of Joe Pa’s career.

[BunnySlippers]

No one mentions, buy I want to know about Sandusky’s wife. She HAD to know.

All these years ... and they adopted 5 boys!

It is obvious there are more than one roach in that organization. These creeps protect each other.

[Doc Savage]

Funny how underage girls impregnated by older guys are given abortions at abortion ‘clinics’ but the rapes are never reported to authorities. Goes on all the time. Kansas as an example. Yet the lamestream media just yawns. Nothing to see here. Move along.

[butterdezillion]

In addition, we openly have a guy heading the “Safe Schools” subject who wanted to teach under-aged kids how to have gay sex, and who was perfectly fine with an underaged boy saying he had had sex with an adult male, which is statutory rape.

But then, we’ve also got public funding of Planned Parenthood, which has repeatedly been caught on tape covering up known rape. If Joe Paterno needs to be fired because he only reported it to the Athletic Director and not to actual law enforcement, then what needs to happen to everybody at Planned Parenthood and every Congress-critter who knew about PP’s cover-up of rape and still not only failed to report it to law enforcement but also voted to FUND PP? What should happen to Barack Obama, who held economic bills hostage because they would not allow funding for Planned Parenthood, which aids and abets rape?

This issue could be a good thing for our country if it causes us to ponder who really does bear responsbility when known crimes are winked at rather than reported and prosecuted.

And we’ve got a TON of major, major issues that deserve the same scrutiny - including Solyndra, Light Squared, Fast and Furious, Obama’s eligibility, etc. We’re talking big-time corruption and crime, and a LOT of people looking the other way so it could continue. In the Obama eligibility issue people have even BRAGGED that they were ignoring the issue.

What happened at Penn State is a microcosm of what is happening in EVERYTHING government-related right now. And the courts consistently tell us that it is nobody’s business - that none of us loses anything of value because of the crimes and corruption that are being overlooked.

Gag.

Sandusky the creep ruins the end of Jo Pa’s career

Sandusky AND JoePa ruined the end of JoPa's career. JoePa could have been a hero, if he did the right thing.

[Rational Thought]

The Board of Trustees took actions, apparently believing that people with knowledge of a terrible (alleged) crime remained silent in favor of the football program.

Yet, the same Board is allowing the game on Saturday to go on as planned? Talk about sending a mixed message.

[JenB]

For twenty years my father has irritated his friends - most of whom went to Penn State - by referring to Joe Paterno as a “child molester”. It wasn’t a joke, but he never explained why he said it that way.

I’m starting to wonder if he has been right all along.

[Hattie]

don’t get demonstrating the guy’s removal from office. What??? Is pedophelia OK in America now? What are the demonstrators saying???? Is all of American youth corrupted now??

Since the Univ Pres was pushing the homosexual agenda on this campus and advertised how homo friendly they were, my guess is the majority of the demonstrators were homo.

[demkicker]

No one mentions, buy I want to know about Sandusky’s wife. She HAD to know.

OMG - this keeps getting worse! I guarantee you he molested all of them too! And I agree, she's either dumber than dirt or knows.
