Amen

Word is he might testify today

Fucking disgusting

I have a sinking feeling, the same "justice" will be applied here.

I initially had the same feeling as you when I read about the venue and the jury. But, by all indications, this is the slam dunk of all slam dunks, and gruesomely explicit to boot. If I were a juror, I would do exactly what someone suggested above: convict on all counts, then drink myself into Bolivian.

Ehh...

I think the defense did raise a smidgen of doubt with the tape of the officers "coaching" the victims while they were giving their statements. If I were a Penn State employee, grad, etc living in the kind of secluded bubble that these people do, I'd be looking for ANY reason to let this guy walk and that might be enough for them to justify it.

But, it's not like Sandusky is or ever was the idol. The idol was always Joe Pa. They blame him (Sandusky) for ending the era.

But at the same time, if Sandusky goes down, think about the (literally) BILLIONS of dollars on the table in civil suits that could (would?) ruin Penn State. There's more at stake for these cultists than just a former defensive coordinator.

SeaCaptim {l Wrote}:How the heck does the Judge/Prosecution allow any Penn State grads on to this jury to begin with? Let's assume the worst case scenario here..that these Penn State hack jurors, find this creep not guilty...The outrage from outside Pedophile State Univ. would be enormous. Then the Feds and/or the NCAA would likely lay a huge hammer to PSU in the form of huge penalty??

SeaCaptim {l Wrote}:That is a big surprise! How does this come out now, unless the person was previously unable to admit such an atrocity. (which is understandable). I imagine this PSU alumni jury has been threatened by some of the Nittany Lion Nit Wits, and will have to think long and hard about whether they can convict this monster. Reports indicate that Sandusky has been smiling throughout the testimony...If the jury does not convict him tomorrow......watch out.

angrychicken {l Wrote}:If the jury lets him off, they will hate him because he's free. .

SeaCaptim {l Wrote}:Absolutely right on. Abuse of power and a complete classic case of lack of institutional control. NCAA needs to shut Penn State football program down, with the death penalty, and the AG Kelly seems to hint that there is more to come on this one. We all laugh and joke about the SEC football factories and their complete lack of academic considerations, and yet what PSU just pulled off the last 15 years (Sandusky charges go back this far and perhaps further) is a complete farce, with Joe Paterno, the one who had complete power and the ability to stop these crimes, and he punted. The Penn State brand needs to be obliterated, and after 10 or 15 years, perhaps they can try again, with some proper checks and balances.

Fox News reporter claims that he was told that Curley and another, offered to plea bargain with testimony against higher ups. ( I missed who he might implicate) Classic slam dunk case for the NCAA to show some courage, and I think the Feds are embarassed enough to ask the NCAA to lay the hammer down.
