Then the story is changed by the time McQueary sits down with Schultz and Curly which has been found out they lied. So I can see how Joe could be at a conflict as hes told one thing and then told another thing by his superiors that report McQueary changed his story. ALL in ALL its a lose lose situation on Joe Pa part as he was dragged into something that he should not been dragged into in the first place. McQueary by law is required to report a crime directly at that moment when it occurs, he did not and now we passing blame onto someone else that shouldn't ever had to deal with this problem.
It's no different then witnessing a murder and not calling the police but instead telling someone else, the more people you drag in the situation the harder it becomes to prove and just more loopholes you give a defense attonery in court.

I agree. Aboslutley agree. And if one of your employees told you he saw a murder the previous night, do you call your boss the NEXT day, or do you call the police? And then ask the employee why the hell he dind't.

Nobody TARGETED Joe Pa. He's the one we've had shoved in our face on Saturdays forever. And told what a perfedct guy he is. What odder, a guy we know NOTHING about doing something wrong or a guy who the entire country has been told was a Saint doing something wrong? And YES, it was wrong of him no tot clal the police.
NO, he isn't the bad guy here. YES he's the guy who's been on a pedestal. H'es held to a higher standard and rightfuly so. He's in a pssition as such. With responsibilities as such.

sure Paterno is going to take the majority of the heat as he is the public figure. But if we are really concerned about the kids. Joe is no more responsible than any one else who knew and didn't continue to press the issue. They all dropped the ball ... and they are all being held accountable.
as it should be IMO.

Agreed. And if we hadn't been told what a freakin' saint Joe is for so many years, it might not be that big a deal.
