Yes. Exactly.
Regardless of how good a coach he was, or how much the people of Penn State loved him, or how people think he deserves to retire on his own terms, he and a myriad of others failed the victims in this case. That McQuery guy is a real weak spined guy I guess. Who goes to a football coach to report a rape? Curley and Schultz are apparently guilty of perjury under oath, too.
According to the official indictment he was never questioned by police about the incident, and according to PA state law they were all required to report this to the PA Dept of Welfare, which they did not.
On top of it all the cops out there look like a bunch of flat out morons. Expect a house cleaning there, too. He was caught showering with a young boy when he was a coach in 1998 and the detective just told him not to do it again...
