The Penn State Crime Family

As I'm sure you've read and heard already a Capo and alleged pedophile in the Penn St mob family, Jerry Sandusky has been arraigned on numerous charges of sexual assault of a child.
This appalling story hit the mainstream a couple of weeks ago and has cast an enormous black cloud over what was considered the most tactfully run and among the most respected universities associated with college athletics.
Once you start to peel back the layers of this story you begin to see the inner workings of what can be described as a mob type family structure with The Godfather Don Joseph Paterno sitting atop his stoop turning an aging blind eye to what will soon become the biggest scandal to rock the NCAA in history.
Joe Paterno was like a grandfather figure not only to the students in Happy Valley but to college football fans everywhere, he could do no wrong, or so we thought. Everything that went on with Penn St. athletics had Jo Pa's fingerprints on it whether it be directly or indirectly and for him to do nothing when learning of the sexual deviancy of the defacto 2nd in command Sandusky, is in the courts of public opinion a death sentence. No longer when you hear the name Paterno will you think of the winningest coach in history it will be for a sex scandal cover up that ruined the lives of numerous young men.
Some people have asked, "why did nobody tell the police?" The answer is simple...they did, but Just like in any crime family, police and politicians make it onto the payroll of the Godfather (Paterno) and just is the case here.
Foot soldier and former football player an current asst. coach Mike McQueray sees the alleged rape of a 10yr old in the shower by Sandusky, doesn't call the cops but calls his daddy to see what to do, daddy says to get the hell out of there and later advises him to tell his Don Paterno, which he does. So why didn't Paterno then go to police or just "whack" Sandusky right then? Instead it goes to the head of the college and also Campus police who decide to keep it "in house" heaven forbid they cast a black eye over their beloved Penn State over saving the lives of kids, scum bags.
And why was Sandusky allowed to stay around the campus and use the facilities to commit these crimes after his retirement in 1998? Because the cover up goes back many years and is way more detailed than we can probably fathom right now, including pension payoffs aka hush money, possible links to a murder of a private investigator and just a corrupt way of doing business while trying to keep intact your "good Ol boy" image.
I for one can't wait for this story to keep developing to see where this leaves Penn State as a participant in college athletics anymore. There have been "death sentence" punishments for universities for far far less crimes, dont be surprised if you see Penn St. crumble and cease to exist for many years to come.
