Plus Sandusky most likely threatened him that something bad would happen if he told. Hard to imagine he did not threaten.
The real scandal may involve the police and local judicial system, that were in the pocket of the PSU Football program.
It just seems like more and more that Penn State was the “Jonestown” of college football.
The real question is who DIDN’T know???
My son at that age was very nice looking, small and blond. He was into music, theater, and wrestling. I was always there. It annoyed him but I WAS ALWAYS THERE.
Wasn’t it interesting that they adopted children, because apparently they were unable to have their own? Hmm.
now, it makes all the sense in the world....
they all need to be gone...
a lot of den leaders in Cub Scouts are women...
Go Nebraska!
One of my pet peeves: to call what happened before today’s game with Penn “a moment of silence” is just more worshiping the god of Political Correctness.
FDR’s radio broadcast to the nation regarding the 1945 D Day invasion was not a moment of silence, it was a prayer to Almighty God and he used those words!!!
That broadcast, quite recent in our history, stands as yet another clear benchmark by which to measure how far we have been pushed and fallen as a nation.
If Ron Brown led it I can guarantee it wasn’t a “moment of silence”. lol.
I was so glad for the comments Bo Pelini made after the game, saying over and over again that football is nothing compared to the lives and well-being of these kids. He said he didn’t think the game should even have been played but that since it was played he was really glad they had the prayer together. I’m not sure, but I think the Nebraska people asked to be able to have that. I know Pelini said both coaches signed off on having it so that was good.
He said his son is 12. I just about had to cry, thinking about that too, because my daughter will be 12 in another month. I work with kids that age every day; they totally look up to the adults who work with them. The kids Sandusky wanted to “help” are the same kind of kids I try to help every day, and the last thing they need is to have their trust violated like that. I pray for those boys and their families.
