Penn State Covers Up For a Pedophile: The Cult is Alive and Well - Page 13 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

I'm actually kind of shocked this didn't make more of a splash when the grand jury investigation was starting. This investigation has been ongoing for months and while the gory details weren't out there the serious allegations were.

I think I'm unique, but I hate society convicting people outside of court.

Believing people are entitled to a day in court or the best defense available is separate from the question of whether something awful happened.

People don't get convicted outside of court. They may get judged.

There probably isn't a perjury case unless child molestation occurred. And if child molestation occurred it is tough to reconcile with appropriate administration-- whether or not the administrators committed perjury.

Your love of reasonable doubt, innocent until proven guilty, etc., these are apparently your hobby horses for empty prattle. Really aren't adding anything.

It's not really caring, it's just always amusing to watch how they report on college sports relative to everybody else and how they manage to get it wrong like it's in their mission statement.

The gap between what should happen and what will happen is precisely why I have no faith in humanity.

espn shouldnt be your first stop for sports news. espn is just a giant hype machine for financial interests.

I guess Sandusky joined the "Big 10" years before Penn State did.

Article:

"Another child, Victim 8, as jurors named him, is known only as a boy, about 11 to 13, who was seen pinned against a wall, by a janitor who observed Sandusky performing oral sex on him in fall 2000, the jury said."

Just awful

Literally reading this thread and the newspaper today made me sick to my stomach. As an alumni donor of PSU I'd like to think of the top people within the institution as exemplary. However, exactly like the Catholic Church, people with authority have abused their privilege in the worst way imaginable. It's just sad, don't know what else to say.
