Possible PSU Bombshell: Joe Knew in 1976
New story in the Washington Post says JoPa knew about Sandusky's child molestation as early as 1976....and did nothing about it.
Even in Joe Paterno’s last days, the iconic college football coach maintained his innocence in the Jerry Sandusky sex abuse scandal at Penn State. A report published Thursday by PennLive.com offers new evidence Paterno might have first heard about accusations that his former defensive coordinator was molesting children as early as 1976. Described as “a new bombshell” in the Sandusky saga, the report references a court order on a related insurance coverage case involving the more than $60 million the university has paid out in civil claims filed by victims of Sandusky’s child molesting crimes. Penn State is seeking reimbursement for those settlements from its insurance carriers. According to PennLive, the court order contains claims by one of Penn State’s insurers that “in 1976, a child allegedly reported to PSU’s Head Coach Joseph Paterno that he (the child) was sexually molested by Sandusky.” “The order also cites separate references in 1987 and 1988 in which unnamed assistant coaches witnessed inappropriate contact between Sandusky and unidentified children, and a 1988 case that was supposedly referred to Penn State’s athletic director at the time,” the Penn Live report says. All of these examples were taken from victims’ depositions used in the still-pending insurance case. According to PennLive, those documents are sealed. Judge Gary Glazer has decided not to bar insurance time claims from the above referenced dates because, “There is no evidence that reports of these incidents ever went further up the chain of command at PSU,” he wrote. Penn State told NBC News Thursday night it was aware of the allegations, “but the legal case and confidentiality commitments that govern our settlement agreements preclude us from discussing these matters at all.” In the last interview before his death, former Penn State football coach Joe Paterno told the Post's Sally Jenkins he had no knowledge of accusations of child molestation involving former assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky. Paterno's comments conflict with the Louis Freeh report released Thursday, claiming that the legendary football coach and other top university officials engaged in a cover up. In a 2012 interview with The Post’s Sally Jenkins, Paterno could not explain how Sandusky evaded him and so many different authorities, for so long. “I wish I knew,” Paterno said. “I don’t know the answer to that. It’s hard.” The Paterno family, who have zealously disputed claims that Paterno knew of Sandusky’s misdeeds, spoke out against the latest allegations through an attorney. |

Nobody ispretending it didn't happen. It's over. Justice was served. Not sure who you think you're helping by standing vigil but if it entertains you in your dotage you go right ahead.

I have no idea if that's true but if it is, so what?

I think they're denying that Joe Paterno even existed.

I care. More evidence that he knew and didn't do everything in his power to stop it. These kids needed an advocate and one would have assumed that Joe would be the kind of guy to step up. Clearly, that was not the case.

Who does it help now? Are you in blowfish's camp that his family needs to continue being punished? The mob mentality some people exhibit over this issue is ridiculous.
