  • Attorney for Victim 5: Paterno Family Report Is Self-Serving, Does Nothing for the Victims
    By Ivey DeJesus PennLive.com Sunday, Feb. 10, 2013 Attorney for Victim 5: Paterno family report is self-serving, does nothing for the victims The attorney for one of Jerry Sandusky's victims - known in court as Victim 5 - blasted the newly released Paterno family report defending the late coach's handling of the child sex crime case as a self-serving critique of the Freeh investigation. Philadelphia attorney Tom Kline, who represented Victim 5 throughout the Sandusky trial, said the Paterno family's report falls short by focusing solely on Joe Paterno, his tarnished legacy and criticism of him. "There's nothing in this report which advances the victims," Kline said. "This is all about Joe Paterno and his legacy and restoring his reputation. When the victims, to a one, I'm quite certain, will feel the real focus should be on them and what was done to them and how it was allowed to happen on Penn State campus ... right under the nose of the coach. That's really what this is about." Kline said the victims largely see the report as the latest answer in "an intramural squabble" between the family and those involved in the Sandusky matter. "The clear purpose of the report is to attempt to elevate and restore Paterno's reputation when Penn State has been working to a different goal, which is to try and turn the corner for the university," Kline said. "I don't see how this personalized fight that is now picked by the Paterno family with Penn State, Louis Freeh and the NCAA advances the ball, to use a football analogy, one yard." The Paterno family report, which found the Freeh report flawed, changes nothing, Kline said.

  • The Betrayal of Joe Paterno: How It All Probably Happened
    The Betrayal of Joe Paterno: How It All Probably Happened Submitted by jzadmin on Wed, 07/10/2013 - 10:54 “A lie gets half way around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.” Winston Churchill "In the aftermath of the Freeh Report, the powers that be at present at Penn State should have the good graces to suspend the football program for at least a year, perhaps more.” Bob Costas, July 17th, 2012 “That doesn’t necessarily make sense.” Bob Costas, May 29th, 2013, on the underlying theory of the same Freeh Report A year ago this week the Freeh Report investigation of Penn State and Joe Paterno was released to great fanfare. Largely because of that report, most people seem to think they know the story of the Jerry Sandusky scandal. Almost all of them are at least somewhat mistaken, and most are very wrong about what actually happened. Amazingly, the average media person, because they have a stronger incentive to believe they didn’t blindly perpetrate a false narrative, appears to be even more in the dark than the typical American is about the real truth of this tragedy. After spending most of the past year and a half researching, pondering, and speaking to more people closer to the Jerry Sandusky case than likely anyone else in the world, even I am still not positive that I know exactly what really transpired in the so called “Penn State Scandal.” While I am quite certain that the largely accepted media storyline of some concerted “cover up” by Penn State of Sandusky’s crimes is false, I am somewhat convinced that we may never know for sure precisely what actually did occur.

Sedwick Sollers, III Attorney at Law King and Spalding, LLP 1700 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Suite 200 Washington, DC 20006-4707 RE: Joseph Paterno Dear Mr. Sollers: As an expert on Pedophilia, I am writing in response to a request for my professional opinions about the document titled “Report of the Special Investigative Counsel Regarding the Actions of the Pennsylvania State University Related to the Child Sexual Abuse Committed by Gerald A. Sandusky.” That document, which had been produced by Freeh, Sporkin, and Sullivan, LLP, is dated July 12, 2012, and it has sometimes been referred to as the “Freeh Report.” I was asked to focus on inferences that have been made about Joseph Paterno in that report, and to additionally focus on his response to the information he received about Gerald A. Sandusky. I have been asked to do so in light of my extensive experience in assessing and treating pedophilia, and in researching and addressing child sexual abuse, and related issues. My professional background also includes training in the behavioral sciences, and in the assessment of mental and motivational states. To that end, I have testified in Federal Court on more than one occasion as an expert psychiatric witness; providing information to jurors to assist them in determining the motivational state (i.e., the mental intent) of accused defendants. Because the “Freeh Report” has made certain inferences about Joseph Paterno’s alleged mental motivations, I will comment briefly about that aspect of the report as well.

  • Verdict Turns Page in Penn State Child Molestation Scandal
    By MARK SCOLFORO March 25, 2017 Verdict turns page in Penn State child molestation scandal HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — Penn State is trying to turn the corner on the Jerry Sandusky child molestation scandal, but the former FBI director who authored a scathing report on it more than four years ago says more changes are needed, even after the conviction of the university's former president. A jury's guilty verdict against Graham Spanier on Friday to a misdemeanor count of child endangerment made him the last of the three former high-ranking administrators to be held criminally culpable for how they handled a 2001 complaint about Sandusky sexually abusing a boy in a team shower. Penn State issued a statement after the verdict, saying the justice system had produced "closure" in the criminal cases that began with Sandusky's arrest in 2011. The school said Spanier's conviction and guilty pleas by two other former top administrators indicated a "profound failure of leadership." But former FBI director Louis Freeh said Penn State needs "new leadership and vision" and called on Penn State President Eric Barron to resign. "Pennsylvania taxpayers, the entire (Penn State) community and responsible political leaders should be 'appalled' by Barron and his entire 'leadership' team," said Freeh. He had remained largely silent for more than four years, as his report became a target of heated criticism by supporters of Spanier, his former co-defendants, Tim Curley and Gary Schultz, and of the school's Hall of Fame head football coach, the late Joe Paterno. Curley, then the athletic director, and Schultz, a vice president, pleaded guilty to misdemeanor child endangerment last week and testified for the prosecution.

    By Devon Lash, Peter Hall and Tim Darragh, Of The Morning Call 10:45 PM EDT, July 12, 2012 Freeh: Penn State leaders agreed to hide abuse; their silence failed the victims Investigators say university's culture bears some blame for not stopping Sandusky A special investigation pins much of the blame for the Jerry Sandusky sex-abuse scandal on the do- nothing attitude of four top Penn State administrators — including legendary football coach Joe Paterno — who kept allegations under wraps to protect the university's image, according to a searing report released Thursday. "The evidence clearly shows, in our view, an active agreement to conceal," Louis Freeh, a former FBI director who led the eight-month investigation, said at a news conference in Philadelphia. Paterno and other top Penn State figures put the university's reputation over children's safety, emphasizing what was called "the Penn State Way" that promoted athletics without fear of oversight or reprisal from an ineffective board of trustees. Those are some of the "saddening and sobering" findings in a 267-page investigation commissioned by Penn State that examined how the university handled allegations that Sandusky was sexually abusing children on campus. Sandusky, a retired Penn State assistant football coach, was convicted June 22 on 45 of 48 counts of child sex abuse against 10 victims from 1994 to 2009. For 14 years, Paterno, who coached football for more than six decades, exhibited a "total disregard" for the victims and concealed critical facts to avoid bad publicity, according to the report. "Sixty-one years of excellent service to the university is now marred," said Trustee Karen Peetz.

  • Penn State Sex Abuse Scandal Chips at Joe Paterno Legacy by Erik Brady and Jack Carey, USA TODAY
    Penn State sex abuse scandal chips at Joe Paterno legacy By Erik Brady and Jack Carey, USA TODAY STATE COLLEGE, Pa. – Joe Paterno isn't just Penn State's football coach Updated 11/8/2011 1:28 PM He has long been seen as the avuncular symbol of all that is good and right with the game. His 409 wins are the most of any coach in major-college history. They were amassed by generations of players in vanilla uniforms, and without a cheating scandal. Now, a little more than a week after Paterno got his record-setting 409th win, the view of his storied, 46-year career suddenly is undergoing a stark revision — tarnished by a child sexual abuse scandal at Penn State with echoes of the one that rocked the Roman Catholic Church. Two Penn State officials surrendered Monday to authorities in Harrisburg, Pa., on charges they failed to report suspected abuse by Jerry Sandusky, a former assistant coach. Sandusky, 67, who was on Paterno's staff for more than three decades and widely was seen as his heir apparent before retiring in 1999, is charged with multiple felonies in the alleged abuse of eight boys over a 15-year period. Paterno, 84, has not been charged, and prosecutors say he is not a target of their investigation. But his actions — or lack of them — have many in the court of public opinion judging him harshly. According to a grand jury report, a graduate assistant told Paterno in 2002 that he had seen a naked Sandusky sexually assaulting a 10-year-old in the showers at Penn State's athletics complex.
