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.

RUINS JOE PA’S CAREER????

Sorry, but Joe Pa ruined his career when he failed to do the right thing. I know he was put in a less than desirable position, but while he may have done all he was “legally” required to, (and I still find that dubious) he certainly didn’t do what he was morally required to.

I firmly believe Joe Pa knew this guy was molesting kids at least as early as 1998 when the first investigation took place and Sundusky “retired” in 1999. This whole mess stinks to high heaven, and the cover up and those involved extends WAY beyond just PSU and its staff..

Sandusky was taking a child from school without parental consent.. do you really think someone in that school could not be complicite for something like to have been going on? I know I can’t walk into a school and take a child that isn’t mine out without explicit consent.. can you?

I fully expect at this point that we will find the local police and DA as well were complicit in keeping this quiet as well.

Joe Pa ruined his career, no one else.

Joe Paterno fired Sandusky . . . ahem, "allowed Sandusky to resign" in 1999 - even though Sandusky had done excellent professional work and was nowhere near normal retirement age.

I find it hard to believe that anything other than these kind of allegations (the ones initially investigated by the police in 1998) motivated Paterno to cut Sandusky loose from official involvement in the program.

That means that Paterno knew what was going on with Sandusky definitely by 1998.

But even after Sandusky resigned, Paterno remained on the board of Sandusky's creepy charity, he still allowed Sandusky and his victims unrestricted access to Penn State athletic facilities and he still allowed Penn State's football program to promote Sandusky's foundation.

Joe Paterno has enabled Sandusky in his victimization of children for, at minimum, 13 years - and probably much longer than that.

Paterno should rightfully die in prison.
