Penn State's athletic director plus ex-Paterno assistant charged in child sex case

[Concerned Papa]

As it relates to Paterno, what this freak did to these children is no different than bringing his victims to YOUR house, raping them in YOUR bathroom, even LEAVING THE DOOR OPEN!

You just gonna shrug your shoulders and do NOTHING?

I will no longer be following Ashton. I am sure he will get slammed for that comment.

You would not believe the people supporting this guy. I am shocked over it. This stuff is happening 2 hours from me.

Latest from CNN:

Penn State president removed, Paterno out immediately

"State College, Pennsylvania (CNN) -- Coach Joe Paterno and the president of the school have lost their jobs, effective immediately, over a child sex abuse scandal at Penn State, university trustees announced Wednesday night.

"What can I say, I'm no longer the coach," Paterno told a crowd of about 15 students gathered outside his house late Wednesday night. "It's going to take some time to get used to. It's been 61 years."

The crowd cheered and said, "We love you, Joe."

"I love you, too!" Paterno replied.

Paterno's wife, Sue, was visibly upset while standing beside him on the front steps."

I can't believe Penn State's students are continuing to embarrass themselves and their school more and more by the minute. This is NOT a cause you will look back on and be proud you were a part of guys.

Here's a picture of the media van - http://twitter.com/jon_wertheim/status/134496542479495168/photo/1/large

Another sad thing about this situation is that when kids are molested, they may act out on it in a year, five years, twenty years etc later in a self destructive manor. It happened to me, but I never, ever thought it would happen to my DD AND my DS. I got drunk regularly at 10 yo, it has affected my DD in relationships and my DS blew his face off and gets to live with that as well everyday. His molester was convicted again soon after he got paroled and sits in PC while refusing treatment, being preserved on our dime. Just makes me sick, but this situation makes me even sicker. I dont understand the PS students reactions but in a way i do-a dirty little secret that when it is found out, the victim is villified.

Makes me wonder how many of those people would just turn their heads to a little boy being raped. They are about the same age McQueary was when he turned his head.

the sports blog SportsByBrooks has tweeted a few teases tonight concerning some "new, major allegation" in the Sandusky case that will be announced in the next few days. Here are some of the tweets and a link to his Twitter page. I'm not a fan of his, AT ALL and this is the only place I've seen any mention of this, so take it as you will. I totally expected many more victims to come forward in the coming days and weeks, but I'm not sure I, or Penn State, can handle anything worse than what has already been reported.

"I can confirm there will soon be new, major allegation involving child sex abuse in Sandusky case. Told tonite it could come before Saturday"

"If what I was told tonight about the details of the new allegation in Sandusky child sex case is true, it will horrify the public."

I think ESPN is showing live coverage.

What it all comes down to is how many soaped up little boys did it take to keep the wheels turning on the 50 million dollar a year football money machine.

I am afraid we will only know a fraction of the true number. Everything on that campus bought with that money is tainted.

This is a deadly serious matter. Keep the victims in your thoughts. Cannot emphasize that enough. In your thoughts.

I have heard that same thing from a friend.

OMG how can this get any worse? I dont even want to imagine.

ESPN has live coverage

 

[doubt]

espn just posted paterno's reaction to being fired.


''I am disappointed with the Board of Trustees' decision, but I have to accept it.
A tragedy occurred, and we all have to have patience to let the legal process proceed. I appreciate the outpouring of support but want to emphasize that everyone should remain calm and please respect the university, its property and all that we value.
I have been incredibly blessed to spend my entire career working with people I love. I am grateful beyond words to all of the coaches, players and staff who have been a part of this program. And to all of our fans and supporters, my family and I will be forever in your debt.''

and no...i am not making this crap up. what a complete loser.

 

[Wise Old Owl]

Have also heard that there are now upwards of 20 victims that have come forward in the wake of this all hitting the fan.

Wonder how many more there are?

 

[Dr.Fessel]

OMG how can this get any worse? I dont even want to imagine.

All I was told was it was horrific and would come out soon. The person was so upset I did not push for facts.

How inhumane can a person be.

Is it even more disgusting, horrific acts or does it deal with someone knowing something for a long time?
