Joe Paterno and PSU Knew

They all knew, except for the Cops. Normally, I don't read the Huffpost, but this came across one of the news sites, I clicked on the link. When I read this, my blood boils. Also, I am not sure why Sandusky deserves a new trial, he's not the victim here, the children that he abused are.

HARRISBURG, Penn. — Penn State’s revered former head coach Joe Paterno was told of child sexual abuse by convicted molester Jerry Sandusky as far back as 1976, decades before previously thought, but did not report it to higher authorities, a court document showed.

Paterno, the coach with the most wins in major college football history, died in 2012 after being fired over revelations that Sandusky, his coaching assistant, sexually abused a young boy in the Penn State football showers in 2002.

Paterno told university officials, but not police.

The revelations that Paterno appeared to know about abuse decades earlier come the same day a different judge in Pennsylvania granted Sandusky a hearing later this month to press his case for a new trial.
