usually the first time you fail to act when you should, the problem snowballs downhill and creates an even larger problem as an end result. had paterno not tried to cover up the situation and it had been reported, penn state wouldnt be seeing this harsh of punishment, it all would have fallen on sandusky, and who knows how many childrens lives wouldnt have been ruined..

+3 The really sick part is how many children suffered because of this. What is their mental state? How did the SYSTEM at PSU look the "OTHER WAY" to benefit the football team? ANY awards the team picked up during that time period of abuse should be stricken from the books. Let this be a lesson to ANY other industry who tries to cover up these crimes.
I am also shocked that when that janitor saw what was happening to that boy (in the wash room) that he did not try to stop it, or at the least, when he reported it, follow up on what action was done to look into that act.
