You are yet another imbecile who is too lazy to properly research this matter before opening your pie hole. Jerry Sandusky was the abuser. Spanier and Curley failed miserably in how they handled the situation. All three of them were punished by law. Had nothing to do with Paterno.
You're the imbecile. Paterno was the leader of the conspiracy. He called a meeting at his house. Spanier, Curley and Schultz met the next day. Emails revealed that Spanier with the decision made by Paterno.
Spanier, Curley and Schultz got prison sentences.
Sandusky got life.
Paterno got the death penalty by the Court of Karma and is burning in hell for eternity.
My guess is that you consider yourself an expert on the matter because you watched a few early speculative ESPN reports and then swallowed what you were told about the Freeh Report hook, line and sinker. (Not that you actually read any of the Freeh Report, but if you knew anything about why and by whom it was commissioned, you would also know that its spotty conclusions were reached by subjective design and not by objective, exhaustive investigation.) Heck, maybe you even brushed up your "expertise" by watching a sensationalized made-for-HBO movie. Sherlock Holmes has nothing on you, boy!
Now, if you had actually bothered to follow the entire years-long story and objectively digest ALL of the facts, information and subsequent investigations, you would know that the courts ruled there was no conspiracy and that Paterno was guilty of no wrong doing. While -- in retrospect and with 20/20 hindsight -- Paterno himself wished he had done more, he acted in accordance with the law given the limited and vague secondhand information that was provided to him. It was then Graham Spanier and Tim Curley who took the reigns and made the utterly repulsive and irresponsible decision to handle the matter "in house." And the WAY they (Spanier and Curley) handled it was even more repulsive and irresponsible than the decision itself.
I would go on, but it's not my responsibility to do your work for you. Get off your lazy a$$ and use what few marbles are rattling around between your ears to research the matter thoroughly. Either that or just swallow your self-righteous pride and admit you don't know what you're talking about. Paterno haters, Trump supporters and Nazis...you clowns are all alike.
