And if for some reason Paterno thought the GA was full of shit and lied about what he said about his longtime friend, why not only keep him on staff, but continue to promote him?
At this point, it doesn't seem like Paterno has any potential criminal problems. But I stress, at this point.

You are right, I have not read the testimonial, I've been too busy, but When I see that he was only told by the GA saw disturbing and inappropriate things in the shower I tend to give leniency until I know more info. Who decides what that stuff is? We can hold a poll on what people consider disturbing and inappropriate and would have huge degrees of variance. Does it say the GA told him he saw Sandusky having anal sex with a 10 yearold? As stated if it was that I would expect the person report the indecent to the police or tell me that, not sugar coat something and make it sound less important. Despite what you may think he is not responsible for launching an investigation against a person that no longer works for him. As for the children, I do, a boy, and I still think, with the information that has come out, he has done what he had to do.
