Testimony: Paterno ‘knew inappropriate action was taken by Sandusky with a youngster

[Dback Jon]

What did Joe Paterno know, and when did he know it?

Today, we have some answers to the crucial question from the coach's mouth after Paterno's testimony from earlier this year — in which the now-former Penn State icon told a grand jury that he had been informed about an incident of "a sexual nature" between ex-defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky and a young boy in 2002 — was read for the first time in open court.

In the testimony, Paterno said he "knew inappropriate action was taken by Jerry Sandusky with a youngster" after a meeting with then-graduate assistant Mike McQueary, who allegedly saw Sandusky sexually abusing a boy in a locker room the shower the previous night, but did not inform police and waited several days to meet with his boss, athletic director Tim Curley, because he "didn't want to interfere with their weekends."

Yeah we wouldn't want to ruin the AD's weekend I mean it's just a kid being raped by one of your coaches, you don't need to hurry to report that Joe.

Unreal.

I know - that just killed me. WTF was Paterno thinking?

No surprise here... This is what I knew to be true from the minute this hellish story broke. If anyone thought Paterno didn't know what was going on, you seriously need to dig your head out of the sand...

One of the worst, most horrific stories I have ever come across...
