Check out the title on the cover of the biography for the accused ex-Asst Coach:
I feel bad for Coach Paterno, but even worse for the victims.

i read the report - jesus christ, it's almost the end of 2011, this guy was known as a pedophile by so many people going back to the late 90's. it's unbelievable how this guy was allowed to go on and on and on.
i want to defend Paterno, of all the people in this disaster, he is the least to blame. It's unclear what exactly he was told by the graduate student, I believe Paterno when he says he never heard there was anal sex, what he was told was 'horsing around' and 'inappropriate' touching - when a 57 year old man is inappropriately touching a young boy it doesn't matter if anal or oral sex is going on, something very bad, a crime, is going on. Paterno turned the matter over to his superiors. So what was Joe Paterno to do, he's the head football coach at Penn State, he reported what he knew and I assume he believed his superiors would do the right thing.
Should he have continued to check with his superiors to find out what was going on? Should he have called the police and said 'i'm Joe Paterno, i had a graduate assistant report he saw an ex-coach of mine and a boy 'horsing around' inappropriately in a shower over here at the football building, I reported it to my bosses at Penn State but I don't trust them to do the right thing so that's why I'm calling you'?
