I think it's clear that the football program intimidation factor plays into this. Janitors and graduate assistants fearing for their jobs. School officials fear repercussions fearing to file police reports. The god like reverence for the coach and program from everybody in the close knot community. |

Seems odd that Sandusky took up this perversion later in life. |

Tom, I very much doubt that he did. Likely he started his program to help at risk youth to make his prey readily available. |

It's hard to believe he could have been doing it for decades and not been reported. I do think though there probably aren't more of these predatory acts and incest these days, it's just that in years past when people suspected they didn't report it. The old it's not my business syndrome. |

Isn't it great fun to let our imaginations run wild and fill the pages and ariwaves with speculation!!!! Especially when we have a ready scapegoat. |

Colo, I spent several years working child abuse. Abusers are very good at selecting vistims and it is not at all unusual for them to go years and leave a long trail of destruction before they are caught. All predators go where they can find the weakest victims. This is why pedophiles take jobs that afford them access to the vulnerable. The Second Mile foundation was Sandusky's "watering hole." |

Agree Ken. The heir to the founder of the Thompson sub machine gun company, a multi-multi millionaire, got away with child rape for decades in the Seattle area. And in the case we are discussing here, it appears that JoePa and the school has managed through intimidation to help Jerry with his cover-up. If the pimping rumor pans out, who knows how many perverts are involved?
