Really? Disturbing, yes. Criminal? You're going to have to find a citation to support that.

"Should have done more?" That depends on what McQueary told them (and he never spoke with Spanier directly, btw). Let's examine that. He never expressed to his father and Dr. Dranov that he witnessed sexual abuse. He hedged on what he described to Joe. But then we are to believe that he described it to Curley and Schultz in no uncertain terms? A college graduate in his mid-20s who supposedly witnessed something heinous and didn't think, as another poster suggested, to go directly to the police? Someone, who after his report to Curley and Schultz, never bothered to follow up on it or discuss it with anyone else.......for ten years! You may love him, but to me his credibility is schit.
Lest we not forget that McQ probably waited two months before going to Paterno. It wasn’t the next day. It was two-plus months

More incredulous, after hearing slapping sounds for maybe three seconds, McQ immediately concluded that anal sex was occurring. Shower water falling on a tile flow sure sounds like slapping. The boy was allegedly in no distress whatsoever. That whole situation is shady as can be.

Many claim MM was allegedly drunk at the time he was in the locker room (he had gone there from downtown State College on a Friday night... he went to the locker room to drop something at his locker - he wasn't there working out). If he was in an impaired condition, this would have a huge impact on his sensory system - no different than alcohol impairing your ability to drive. The whole situation is shady including how he handled it - he runs to an office and calls his Dad? His Dad tells him to leave the boy & JS there, leave the facility and come to his home??? (MM's Dad was a Mandatory Reporter via his job/profession - would this be the advice he gave MM if his son was telling him JS was raping a minor [or even just that he thought he was] in the PSU locker room shower... he was there.... and what should he do??? Give me a break.). The whole McQueary story stinks to high-heaven. BTW, how precisely did the corrupt AG and his "investigators" come to talk with MM about this 10 years after the fact? Supposedly they levered a story from him they could use by threatening him with potential criminal charges they had against MM and told him he better make it something they could use to further their corrupt agenda if MM wanted to save his own skin for things they had him dead-to-rights on..... Again, the whole thing stinks to high-heaven and MM appears to be one of the biggest belly-crawling dishonorable scumbags in the affair.

The bold is enough for me and which is why everyone should have done more (though, to clarify, Joe met his legal obligation)
Jerry was a pedophile--denying that is delusional at this point IMO but to each their own.
Thankfully he's in jail and no longer a danger to others.
I'm not denying it but you're assuming that Dad & Dranov didn't know but Curley, Shultz, and Spanier did know. That quite an assumption.

Do you also assume TSM administrators knew, the high school administrators knew, and the police and CPS from 1998 knew?

McQueary called his father from inside the facility and went over to his father's house after speaking with him on the phone and leaving the facility. He never told his father, Dranov, JVP, Schultz or Curley that he saw anything, let alone sexual assault. He told them all he HEARD things which concerned him. Hearing something you think could be be something concerning is not "eyewitnessing" what the Presentment claimed. McQueary himself sent an email to the Prosecutor specifically statating that he absolutely did not SEE what the Presentment claimed he reported he saw - McQueary categorically denied he SAW anthing of the kind and "Never told anyone he did" for Pete's sake - a statement by McQueary that included the Prosecutor, police investigators, JVP, Schultz, Curley or anyone else. Again, his email letter to the Prosecutor, and AG's Office, categorically stated that he (MM) "NEVER told anyone that he SAW" what is claimed he reported he saw in the AG's Presentment.

Speculating about noises you hear and what they might possibly be is not "eyewitnessing" those speculated things. The Presentment made up the claims of MM "eyewitnessing" sexual assault as McQueary himself made clear.
IIRC MM did say that he saw the boy run out of the shower and didn't appear to be in distress. If a 10 year old boy was just subjected to anal rape I'm pretty sure he would be in distress.

Where did I say that "Dad and Dranov didn't know by Curley, Shultz and Spanier did know"? I never said or implied that.
Can you say Sandusky is a pedophile or are you in denial over that? Time to call a spade a spade.

Why do you flip it around and make stuff up about me? You claim that all of these people didn't do enough. I assume you think they knew that JS was sexually assaulting kids because it they didn't it wouldn't be appropriate to say they didn't do enough.

I've said that I'm quite confident that JS had a problem but I'm unsure about the extent of the problem. I certainly don't believe that he raped kids in the basement and Dottie ignored their screams. Some people call grooming a form of sexual assault but IMO that's a lot different than anal rape. I believe that some of victims who conveniently found their repressed memory did so for the money. I also said that I assume some of the victims were telling the truth. So I absolutely think JS had a problem. I just don't know the extent. You can call me a denier but I think that's quite unfair.

Maybe don't make assumptions? If someone came to me and said something inappropriate happened in a shower with a child I'm pushing that to every limit. Even Joe acknowledged he wished he had done more. They all likely do and should have. Joe met his legal obligation the others didn't. I never said anything about Dad or Dranov or MM and that they shouldn't have done more.

It's not unfair. There's plenty of evidence that he abused children and used a charity to do so. He targeted poor kids who wouldn't be believed. You can downplay it all you want but that decision is why people believe Penn State fans are a cult. If you want to claim its unfair that's fine. I'm comfortable being "unfair" to those creating a defense for a pedophile.

What are you claiming I made up about you?
