The plot thins.
I had read that Paterno had also given his wife the lease to the house for a dollar.
Since there’s no tax advantage or legal advantage for doing so, it can only come down that he’s protecting his assets from any civil lawsuits.
Kinda indicates that he had knowledge of his Sandusky’s activities.
Imo anyone who thinks joepa was in the dark is delusional. He knew, he covered it up he approved.
Won’t be long till we get actual proof that 2nd mile/sandusky was pimping boys for donations. Just like the reporter who broke the case said on the radio last week.
Ever wonder why joepa had this immense influence? Because he had this dirt on everyone.

Most likely answer: Paterno knew about the 1998 incident where Sandusky admitted to showering with a young boy.
Then there was the 2002 witnessing of anal sex in the shower with Sandusky and a boy who appeared to be around 10 years old.
When Paterno was told of this it was almost certainly the SECOND time (if not the third or fourth or fifth) he was made aware of Sandusky in the shower with a young boy.
Almost 10 years later, they grew used to seeing Sandusky parading a bevy of young boys around PennState. And nobody thought anything of it after (at least) two reports of this guy in the showers with boys?
Strains credulity even more.
Yeah, right.
Lawyer: "You say anything about it happening and we'll make sure your name is all over the front page of every PA newspaper."
I predict that this case is going to become a new version of the Kennedy Assassination controversy. For the rest of the century folks will write books and produce documentaries about this. There will be analogies to the “Grassy Knoll” and the “Railway Men”. It will only serve to confuse the general public...but the general public will still spend big buck$ on those books and documentaries. Mindless...but addicted.
Can someone help me out here? I was out of the loop for a few days and I don’t know how this whole story broke. What happened that brought the whole thing to light?
Maybe this is just stating the obvious but I think PSU is guilty as hell and from top to bottom. The reason why I think that is McQueary. He testified under oath to the GJ what he saw and then told Paterno about it. If McQueary made the whole thing up he’s
- Liable for perjury.
- Has screwed his chance of ever working anywhere ever again.
- Betrayed a close friend of his father’s as well as all his superiors at PSU.
And why would he do all that? As far as we know he’s standing by his testimony.
In the Duke Lacrosse case it was the victim herself, who was mentally unbalanced and had a criminal record as long as your arm (and is currently in the pokey for murder) that was the only one saying something happened. She had means, motive and opportunity to make something up.
McQueary on the other hand had every motive to keep his yap shut but he didn’t. Say what you want about him not having the testicular fortitude to stop the rape - that’s fine. But to believe that he made everything up - that’s asking a lot.
If anyone else needs a history/timeline of this investigation, I found this:
