OK, first juicy discussion - I am so glad he was arrested, and after hearing the tearful testimony of these young men, I hope they put him in jail and throw away the key!!! I can't believe the defenses stance that these guys are in it for the money! And their premise that the Police put ideas in their head - how horrid it must have been to admit you had been molested in any fashion by this awful man - but to have to discuss it over and over in front of crowds of peopld - the police were trying to let them know they were not alone - and that this really was a predator.
What are your views???

I agree - I also hope they put him in jail & throw away the key. The whole thing is just horrific, sad, and especially now that his son made today.

Well, he will probably get 400 years in prison, the absolute least he can get is 65 years, and he'll be dead by then. Po' lil' thang - I hear the other prisoners are heckling him.
A quote from one of the prisoners “At night, we were singing ‘Hey, teacher, leave those kids alone,’” said the inmate, who only identified himself by his first name, Josh. The line comes from the Pink Floyd song, “Another Brick In The Wall (Part 2).”

It is now reported that the school administration and the atheletic department covered this up for almost 14 yrears.
The shame of this great school is forever tarnished. Sad, very sad.

Saw where Joe Paterno negotiated himself a nice little retirement package while all this was going on early in the fall, based on him retiring at the end of the season. Sure sounds like he wasn't all he was built up to be as a person. I don't figure he was going to give any of those bonus millions or box seats to any of those kids who were assaulted by his scumbag assistant coach.
Hope they packed an electric fan in his casket.
