Famed Penn State defensive coordinator and linebackers coach Jerry Sandusky has been indicted on over 50 counts of sexual assault against minors spanning several decades. Included in the indictment were allegations that legendary Penn State head coach Joe Paterno was aware of at least one instance of abuse that occurred in Penn State football facilities. According the the indictment, Paterno passed the information on to athletic director Tim Curley and head of university police Gary Schultz, but did not inform the police himself. Paterno and Penn State president Graham Spanier have since been fired by the Penn State Board of Trustees while Curley and Schultz, both charged with perjury, were placed on administrative leave. Penn State assistant football coach Mike McQueary, who allegedly witnessed the 2002 incident Paterno was aware of, was also placed on leave. Details of the alleged abuse, as well as new potential victims are slowly becoming more public. Revelations that the judge who initially arraigned Sandusky had raised campaign funds from board members of Sandusky’s charity along with Penn State’s atypical closed records laws have led some to speculate that the alleged cover up is wider and deeper than was originally suspected. Only time will tell what the future holds for Sandusky, Paterno, and Penn State football. (Pat Little/Reuters)
