I am saying that he should have reported it to his superior so that these claims could be investigated. Paterno, due to his relationship with Sandusky, could not be an impartial investigator anyhow. This is why professional investigators have to at times recuse themselves from investigations due to conflicts of interests with regard to relationships with either the accused or the accuser.

One of these ducks is not like the others.

Who says that Paterno did not attempt to get clarity from McQueary's statement? You are leaping. Paterno could have asked for clarification and McQueary could have continued with, "I cannot be certain, but I think I saw". Let the evidence indict Paterno; not your speculation and not some hypothetical "what I would have done in that situation".

If you have never been in that exact situation, you cannot know exactly how you would have responded. At best, you can hope you would act a certain way according to certain knowledge you are privy to at that time.

"We are investigating the possibility that an offense may have happened while here in San Antonio," he wrote.

Jerry Sandusky is accused of taking "Victim 4" to the 1999 Alamo Bowl. That accuser, now 27, testified he was listed as a member of the Sandusky family party for the 1999 Alamo Bowl.

When the boy resisted his advances, Sandusky threatened to send him home from the Alamo Bowl, the report said.

Good; now you know how you responded to the exact situation you were in when your best friend kicked his dog.

I keep forgetting that everyone on here who is condemning Paterno is privy to more evidence than is in the GJ indictment.

Thats all Im going off of. We differ on whether he should have done more to protect his campus and the kids inside of his facility. That part is irrelevant to you.

Wow you are either just a fool that was raised to never take a stand, know right from wrong or just could be a lawyer.

If that is all someone is going off of, then someone cannot come to the conclusion that McQueary reported the slapping sounds to Paterno. That is pure conjecture.

Exactly. It's not like child ass raping is on the same level as staring at the window and asking yourself if those trees are real or if you're in some sort of parallel universe. It's real ****ing life with real people that are being victimized beyond belief.

Maybe the best post in this whole thread. :good!:

McQueary heard the slapping sounds. No where does it state that McQueary reported that to Paterno; in fact, it states only that McQueary reported what he saw, what "he believed he saw" to Curley and Schultz. Hearing is not seeing. Continue to make all the conjectures you want, though.
