Ray Gricar had a reputation for helping battered women and abused children. It was his soft spot. He often went out of his way to get justice for these people. He also followed up with them to maintain their safety in many instances.
This was a man who, if he had sunk his teeth into this, was like a pit bull. If he realized that sandusky was the tip of a very big iceberg, then you can bet he was into it.
Why isn’t the Wife Swapping Studies scholar-president of State Penn on the hook to become part of the chain gang too?
A LOT of money at stake ... tens of millions per year.
A lot of prestige at stake.
Reputrations, rellationships.
You have a district attorney who has been pronounced dead after going missing 6 years ago...what did he know...how close was he getting?
This whole thing is sick, depraved, and digusting. Corruption and crime at the highest levels of that school and I bet it reaches out beyond that given the money, power and prestige this thing threatened.
I believe the NCAA should give a multiple year death penalty to that football prgram. Let the players go elsewhere and not be pennalized...but kill the prgram for at least 3 years.
I also believe that there are more people hwo should be in jail.
I think you’re right MHGinTN.....this is moving along and seems to point to a much larger arena then the college itself. Nasty business when people in high places gain too much power and that which it welds.
Astute comparison! Look at my numbers above - the $1.2 million CEO of a $91 million dollar enterprise where the “workers” (athletes) are volunteers. Who’d want to put such a goldmine at risk?
It's good to have stable centers of expertise in an organization busy with "change".
Yep. Saw the governor speak the other day. He looked nervous.
There was an interesting article in our local fishwrap not too many months ago which explained that 6 in 7 college football programs actually lost money. I'll see if I can find it and post it.
The night Gricar went missing, they sent a dozen police cars, a swat team, and helicopters with searchlights to the Penn State campus.
He had scheduled an appointment with an ‘informant’ but never showed up and neither did the informant. Details get lost. Information drips out and causes chaos. Misinformation is rampant.
After that, the Penn State angle was NEVER mentioned again.
There are those who think :
I am expecting exactly that.
I have lost faith in the “system”, completely and totally.
You and me both.
The local news readers continue to refer to the crime as “child abuse”, instead of the criminal homosexual pedophilia that it is.
He should have reported it to the police. Oh, wait a minute, that's the case that was reported to police and they dropped it.
If Sandusky and Paterno didn't like each other why did Sandusky have an office in the football facilities after his retirement?
Did Sandusky retire as a football coach or did he retire as an associate professor in physical education? Was Paterno any sort of faculty administrator? Did he have any involvement in the conditions of Sandusky's faculty retirement? I'm pretty sure the answer is no but I'd like to see in spelled out.
If Paterno didn't like him -- and I don't think he did -- why would he let him stick around?
I think there is something really dirty at Penn State but I don't think Paterno has anything to do with it.
Yuh. And back when the first studies began to indicate that maybe there might just be a connection between cigarettes and lung cancer, you could find a bunch of stories in local papers about how cigarette smoking is actually good for you.
Comments like this are what makes reading Free Republic fun.
What is the Madden rumor?
Amen...conditioning the public; making it sound like someone hit a child with a belt...

22 college football programs made money in 2009-10, NCAA report says
He had scheduled an appointment with an ‘informant’ but never showed up and neither did the informant.
Whoa! That's an amazing piece of info, one I hadn't heard before.
If someone eliminated him, the body's nearby, I should think. There are always construction sites around a big-time University like Penn State.
I wonder if... ?
“Some people need to be lined up against a wall and shot.”
Amen, Brothers and Sisters.
Here on FR, I lay verbal napalm on Islamic practices and infiltration, and here we are with the American PC-equivalent of Islam’s sexual grooming of a conquered population: sexual abuse of children and the condoning of homosexuality/predation against our young boys/young men.
Rush said he’d lose his job/show.
Barney Frank and Lindsay Graham must be just as proud as Keith Ellison, Arne Duncan, Kevin Jennings and 0bama.
This $h!t’s flat out wrong. People get that and need to cut out what’s rotten, or we all will be tainted. God is no mocked.
