About 9:30 p.m. on March 1, 2002, Penn State graduate assistant Mike McQueary observes retired assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky forcibly raping a young boy in the football facility’s showers. Instead of kicking the supreme shit out of Sandusky and holding him for the police, McQueary goes home. He waited until the next morning before he told Coach Joe Paterno about it.
McQueary should be charged and indicted for child endangerment because he failed to stop a child rape being committed in his presence and for failing to report the rape of a child to the police.
JoePa insists that McQueary did not describe a rape and only told him that he had seen something ‘inappropriate’ involving Sandusky and a child. Paterno waited until the next day, March 3, to inform the university’s athletic director, Tim Curley, of what McQueary had told him.
If Paterno is telling the truth, I feel that, instead of getting fired, he should have been allowed to resign at the end of the season as he had said he would when the scandal became public. It’s hard for me to believe that he did not ask McQueary just exactly what he meant by ‘inappropriate.’ If JoePa is not telling the truth and McQueary gave him the sordid details of the rape, then the legendary coach should be charged and indicted for failing to report the rape of a child to the police.

Could it be that Paterno did NOT want to know the details of what McQueary saw? I mean the less Joe knew about it, the less he could be held accountable, the better it would be for Joe
