The report by former FBI director Louis Freeh on how Penn State handled reports that Jerry Sandusky was sexually abusing boys came out today at 8AM CT. The website that was supposed to release the report is having server issues and cannot be accessed. Fortunately, USA Today was ready. Read carefully.
"Jerry Sandusky was convicted Friday of sexually assaulting 10 boys over 15 years, accusations that shattered the Happy Valley image of Penn State football and led to the firing of Hall of Fame coach Joe Paterno. Sandusky, a 68-year-old retired defensive coach who was once Paterno's heir apparent, was found guilty of 45 of 48 counts."
Now the son of a bitch can rot in hell.
{UPDATE: PSU Athletic Director Tim Curley is being charged with failing to report the potential crimes. When Joe Paterno first heard of one allegation, he immediately reported it to Curley. Ugly. Ugly. Ugly stuff.}
Well, this is a whole lot of ugly.
"Sex abuse charges have been filed in Centre County against Penn State coaching legend and Second Mile charity founder Jerry Sandusky.
The charges follow a more-than two year grand jury investigation that began when a Clinton County teen alleged inappropriate contact against the 67-year-old former coach.
During the investigation, older allegations from 1998 surfaced as well. In the older case, Penn State police investigated inappropriate touching in a shower. The charging paperwork has not yet made it to the District Magistrate Judge's office in Centre County. However, felony charges of involuntary deviate sexual intercourse of someone under 16, aggravated indecent assault, indecent assault of someone under 16, indecent assault of someone under 13, and corruption of minors charges have been filed in the state court docket system.
The offense dates include 1996, 1998, 2000, 2002, and 2005. There are 40 counts included in the paperwork filed against him."
