Shame on them.<br /><br />The responsibility to protect the children of the state now became the problem of PSU rather then the state agencies entrusted with this important task. <br /><br />With the wonderful people contributing to this site and others like it and the help of God, the truth will surface and justice will be served.<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02790288022231489462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2260510730184507282.post-16114643670892677932013-04-10T07:34:47.733-04:002013-04-10T07:34:47.733-04:00There are plenty of passionate, intelligent people...There are plenty of passionate, intelligent people out there discussing this scandal on other forums, and their thoughts and comments are very insightful, logical and noteworthy, hence the complilation here. I have to agree with them all that NOTHING has made sense to-date, in the the narrative we've been given. <br /><br />I'm nobody..just an alum, a parent and a PA resident but I am absolutely apoplectic on the way our Trustees have handled this situation. I sit at their meetings and observe. I've spoken with many reporters on this issue, they agree yet don't write about it. I shouted at Judge Freeh in his presser last July about Ms. Abraham and the silence coming from The Second Mile..he agreed it's a good question and quickly ends the presser. <br /><br />Jim Clemente has provided an excellent analysis which everyone needs to read. Mr. Clemente agrees with me that CYS & DPW & 1998 needs to be examined more fully...will that happen? I don't know.<br /><br />I can shout and question and rant along with thousands of others....I can only hope that Mrs. Kane truly gets to the bottom of this. It's been 17 months and we are not much closer to understanding how and why things went down like they did. <br /><br />We just want the Truth.

The author is a new graduate and for whatever reason was allowed to publish this critique of two "independent investigations".<br /><br />I emailed the site publisher pointing out how the author had not questioned the strength of the arguments presented (or rather NOT) in Freeh's report. I suggested they do a followup article that analyzes the arguments against the conclusions in both "investigations".

It may be due to short attention spans, busy lives, disinterest in critical thinking... other things. What I don't get, though, is the hostility that these folks throw at those of us who do see that the simple version of this story makes no sense. I can understand disinterest but not hostility towards solving the mysteries in all this. PARTICULARLY since, as you often say Wendy, the state of PA has ineffective systems in place TODAY to protect kids from sexual victimization! <br /><br />You guys are making real progress though.

The very system we had in place to serve & protect our kids in our state failed...and we can't be bothered to find out why, who, when? Why the silence? I don't get it.

The first two have first-hand knowledge of the 1998 investigation of Sandusky; the last two have first-hand knowledge of the translation of the 2001 Sandusky event into the 2011 Penn State Child Sex Abuse Scandal. These four should be required to testify under oath of their first-hand experiences of all this. That may be too hot, though, for Kane's state office. So what happened to the fed investigation of JS's crimes across state lines? Perhaps it will take a fed GJ to get to the truth of all this. Or perhaps legal action from the Paternos, or from a class action of PSU alumni??<br /><br />*http://notpsu.blogspot.com/2012/07/the-second-mile-involvement-suspicion.html?m=1rdkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11007253694089460950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2260510730184507282.post-49464774667329830312013-04-09T11:59:21.134-04:002013-04-09T11:59:21.134-04:00PSU has deep pockets for the fancy-pants lawyers a...PSU has deep pockets for the fancy-pants lawyers and self proclaimed experts in this case. Greed explains events. Sandusky's innocence is proved by the too many and too few problems. <br /><br />Too many: 57 people claimed to Mr. Feinberg. They didn't tell on Jerry while they were in Second Mile or, more importantly, after they aged out. Aaron Fisher told Mike Gillum that he wanted to prevent harm to more children. If you assume 10% of boys would agree with Fisher, then the probability that all 57 would keep the secret is a merely .002.<br /><br />Too few: Sandusky worked with hundreds, perhaps thousands, of boys over the decades. Only 57 claims other than Fisher?<br /><br />What really sickens me is that the power of the anger for Joe Paterno came from the assertion that he covered up a rape. It was only towel snapping play. The fancy-pants Plaintiff's lawyers have no shame.
