McQueary says he went to the campus police but they have no record of that.
If what he meant is he met with the University V.P. who is over the campus police, that's not good enough for me. According to this article, McQueary was very aware nothing had been done about this when he spoke with the A.G. investigators.

You walk into a room and see a 50 year old man raping a 10 year old boy. Do you (a) attack the man and try to drag him off the boy or (b) sneak away and, hours later, ask your parents what you should do? I do neither one. I call 9-1-1 and say there is a rape in progress and then I use the cell phone to snap a picture or two as "evidence" while being as discreet as possible.
Confronting the attacker could lead to assault charges and it is very possible that the attacker and/or the victim leaves the scene before help arrives.
You must understand that with pedophiles, it's very possible that a) this isn't his first time and b) this isn't his first victim so the emphasis is to catch him in the act, get the police there ASAP and then you'll have both the attacker and the victim ID'd so as to better prosecute the man and put him behind bars where he belongs. To do that, you need evidence in case the child is intimidated into not pressing charges.

Campus police claims that they have no record of him going to them. I give more credence to the statement of the campus police, but I have heard from a few sources that campus police forces tend to be very corrupt and often bury incidents.

I have read that McQueary’s father and Sundusky went to Penn State together and have been life long friends. McQueary’s come from State College as well and McQueary played for Penn State. I have wondered if McQueary himself was abused by Sundusky as a child?

You are someone who realizes the difficulty facing a witness to a crime, and the fact that the perp is likely to challenge the witness, even to the point of accusing him of a crime, or at least of slander. I think it is likely that Sandusky stopped his rape when he realized he had been seen.
McQueary was not a hero, but it's not true that he "did nothing." He was a person with no clout and authority and much to lose, yet he made a report which is now the key piece of evidence. Unfortunately, it seems that the actual victim has either been intimidated, seduced, or recruited into the gay lifestyle, such that his testimony against Sandusky is not available.

It is possible the campus police are in on the coverup. This thing just gets worse by the day.
Had McQueary claimed to have gone to the campus police, however, wouldn't that have been in his grand jury testimony and the report?

I have heard from a few sources that campus police forces tend to be very corrupt and often bury incidents. I have read of cases where campus cops suppressed prosecution of conventional (heterosexual) rapes and other crimes on campus. Read The Five Year Party and learn about just how corrupt the higher education racket is today.

Give it up.
Sandusky said that he didn't seek sexual satisfaction from ALL the kids he “helped”.
The guy is a pedophile with an all too typical pedophile M.O..
All the evidence so far points to his guilt. But it is his own words that condemn him.

As I understand it there are only about 40,000 people in that town. Maybe they ought to come at this from the other direction and try to figure out who didn't know about Sandusky.
To: greatvikingone
No, he saw what he saw, he is just making up parts to make himself better.

And he should have never left the boy with Sandusky and he should have told local police.
But he did see what Sandusky was doing and Sandusky stopped.

He deserves nothing but contempt. He did nothing about this for 10 years.
It took another complaint to bring this to light.

There are others who said they have been abused by Sandusky and not ‘just’ showering with him.

...and that’s precisely why Sandusky sought families with no father present.

Yes, and he is too dumb to realize that nothing short of getting the boy out of there is going to help him-he admits he didn’t do that, ran and called his father and then the next day told Paterno and for the next 10 years acted like nothing happened when he saw Sandusky roaming around free.

No, you gave the Defense's case-Sandusky is an admitted pervert (dumb jock who likes to take showers with young boys) but nothing sexual happened.
Yea right!
