Rinaldi From Penn State
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. -- Penn State trustees fired football coach Joe Paterno
and university president Graham Spanier amid the growing furor over how the
school handled sex abuse allegations against an assistant coach.
The massive shakeup Wednesday night came hours after Paterno announced that
he planned to retire at the end of his 46th season.
But the outcry following the arrest of former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky
on molestation charges proved too much for the board to ignore.
“
The past several days have been absolutely terrible for the entire Penn
State community. But the outrage that we feel is nothing compared to the
physical and psychological suffering that allegedly took place.
”-- John P. Surma,
vice chair of the board of trustees
"The university is much larger than its athletic teams," board vice chair
John Surma said during a news conference.
Defensive coordinator Tom Bradley will be interim coach and provost Rodney
Erickson interim school president.
Paterno said he was disappointed with the board's decision, but accepted it
and urged everyone to remain calm and respect the school.
"A tragedy occurred, and we all have to have patience to let the legal
process proceed," Paterno said in a statement late Wednesday night. "I
appreciate the outpouring of support but want to emphasize that everyone
should remain calm and please respect the university, its property and all
that we value.
"I have been incredibly blessed to spend my entire career working with
people I love. I am grateful beyond words to all of the coaches, players and
staff who have been a part of this program. And to all of our fans and
supporters, my family and I will be forever in your debt."
Paterno received an envelope at his home Wednesday night 15 minutes before
the board of trustees made their announcement, a source with first-hand
knowledge told ESPN's Joe Schad. A note inside gave Paterno a phone number
to call. He did so and was told by one of two board members on the receiving
end "you are relieved of your duties."
According to the person close to Paterno, the coach had a hard time grasping
what was contained in the allegations against Sandusky.
"I think the board took one look at the frenzy going on and the
understandably horrific subject matter and said we can't have the focus on
Joe for up to five more games," the source said.
A key question throughout the scandal has been why Paterno and other top
school officials didn't go to police in 2002 after being told by Mike
McQueary, who is receivers coach now but was a graduate assistant at the
time, that McQueary saw Sandusky assaulting a boy in a school shower.
But the source told ESPN's Schad that Paterno hopes to clarify what he was
told by McQueary as soon as Thursday. According to the source, Paterno
recalls McQueary "vaguely" referencing "fondling" or "touching" or "horsing
around" by Sandusky and a youth. But Paterno never had the understanding
that McQueary had witnessed a "sodomy" or "rape."
Paterno has said he should have done more, while Spanier has said he was not
told the details of the attack.
AP Photo/Carolyn KasterPenn State's board of trustees said Wednesday night
that Joe Paterno would not continue as coach effective immediately.
"Our great university has been rocked by serious charges against a former
coach," Spanier said in a statement Wednesday night. "The presentment by the
attorney general describes acts that should never be tolerated or ignored.
I was stunned and outraged to learn that any predatory act might have
occurred in a university facility or by someone associated with the
university.
"I am heartbroken to think that any child may have been hurt and have deep
convictions about the need to protect children and youth. My heartfelt
sympathies go out to all those who may have been victimized."
Earlier in the day, Paterno said in a statement he was "absolutely
devastated" by the case, in which Sandusky, his onetime heir apparent, was
charged with molesting eight boys in 15 years, with some of the alleged
abuse taking place at the Penn State football complex.
"This is a tragedy," Paterno said. "It is one of the great sorrows of my
life. With the benefit of hindsight, I wish I had done more."
Surma said, "these decisions were made after careful deliberations and in
the best interests of the university as a whole."
He said Paterno was told by telephone that he was out after spending most of
his life at Penn State and guiding its football teams to two national
championships in the 1980s.
"The past several days have been absolutely terrible for the entire Penn
State community. But the outrage that we feel is nothing compared to the
physical and psychological suffering that allegedly took place," Surma said.
Shortly after the board's decision was announced, Paterno shook hands with
students outside of his house, some of whom were crying.
Other students were upset. A large crowd descended on the administration
building, shouting "We want Joe back!" then headed to Beaver Stadium.
The firings came three days before Penn State hosts Nebraska in its final
home game of the season, a day usually set aside to honor seniors on the
team.
Earlier Wednesday, Paterno talked to his team for about 10-15 minutes in an
auditorium of the football facility on campus. Standing at a podium, he told
players he was leaving and broke down in tears.
Players gave him a standing ovation when he walked out. Junior cornerback
Stephon Morris said some players also were nearly in tears as Paterno spoke.
"I still can't believe it," Morris said. "I've never seen coach Paterno like
that in my life." Asked what was the main message of Paterno's talk, Morris
said: "Beat Nebraska."
Grand Jury transcript
The Pennsylvania Attorney General's Office released a 23-page summary of its
findings and recommended charges in the investigation of former Penn State
football assistant coach Jerry Sandusky (pictured). It includes explicit
language.PDF
The ouster of the man affectionately known as "JoePa" brings to an end one
of the most storied coaching careers -- not just in college football but in
all of sports. Paterno has 409 victories -- a record for major college
football -- won two national titles and guided five teams to unbeaten,
untied seasons. He reached 300 wins faster than any other coach.
Penn State is 8-1 this year, with its only loss to powerhouse Alabama. The
Nittany Lions are No. 12 in The Associated Press poll and the BCS rankings.
After 19th-ranked Nebraska, Penn State plays at Ohio State and at Wisconsin
(No. 18 BCS, No. 16 AP), both Big Ten rivals. It has a chance to play in the
Big Ten championship game Dec. 3 in Indianapolis, with a Rose Bowl
presented by Vizio bid on the line.
After meeting Tuesday, Penn State's board of trustees said it would appoint
a committee to investigate the "circumstances" that resulted in the
indictment of Sandusky, and of athletic director Tim Curley and a vice
president Gary Schultz, who are accused in an alleged cover-up.
Paterno notified Curley and Schultz about the 2002 abuse charge and is not a
target of the criminal investigation. Curley and Schultz have been charged
with failing to report the incident to the authorities.
Sandusky, who retired from Penn State in June 1999, maintained his innocence
through his lawyer. Curley has taken a leave of absence and Schultz has
decided to step down. They also say they are innocent.
The committee will be appointed Friday at the board's regular meeting, which
Gov. Tom Corbett said he plans to attend, and will examine "what failures
occurred and who is responsible and what measures are necessary to ensure"
similar mistakes aren't made in the future.
The U.S. Department of Education said Wednesday it would investigate whether
Penn State violated federal law requiring the disclosure of criminal
offenses on campus and warnings of crimes posing a threat to the community
in its handling of the allegations. U.S. Rep. Patrick Meehan, R-Pa.,
requested the Education Department's involvement on Tuesday.

AP Photo/Matt RourkeJohn P. Surma, vice chair of the board, said Wednesday
that "the university is much larger than its athletic teams."
"If these allegations of sexual abuse are true then this is a horrible
tragedy for those young boys. If it turns out that some people at the school
knew of the abuse and did nothing or covered it up, that makes it even
worse," U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan said. "Schools and school
officials have a legal and moral responsibility to protect children and
young people from violence and abuse."
Mark C. Sherburne, Curley's acting replacement as AD, issued a statement
Wednesday, saying the school is "devastated" by the allegations in the grand
jury presentment against Sandusky.
"Our hearts go out to the children and their families," he said.
"Every day we are entrusted with the lives of young people, and we do not --
nor have we ever -- taken that trust lightly," Sherburne said. "We are
outraged that a valued trust has been broken. We can promise you that we are
doing everything in our power to restore that broken trust. Everyone within
athletics -- coaches, administrators, staff and student-athletes -- are
committed to this pledge."
Sandusky founded The Second Mile charity in 1977, working with at-risk
youths. It now raises and spends several million dollars each year for its
programs. Paterno is listed on The Second Mile's website as a member of its
honorary board of directors, a group that includes business executives,
golfing great Arnold Palmer and several NFL Hall of Famers and coaches,
including retired Pittsburgh Steelers stars Jack Ham and Franco Harris.
On Wednesday morning, Paterno said he planned to retire at the end of the
season, but the board had other ideas.
In a statement, Paterno said: "I grieve for the children and their families,
and I pray for their comfort and relief."
He went on: "I have come to work every day for the last 61 years with one
clear goal in mind: To serve the best interests of this university and the
young men who have been entrusted to my care. I have the same goal today."

Paterno statement in abuse case raises more questions
Penn State's stunningly insufficient action

Penn State’s insufficient action amid child sex allegations stunning
By Dan Wetzel, Yahoo! SportsNov 5, 4:49 pm EDT
At approximately 9:30 p.m. on March 1, 2002, a Penn State graduate assistant
entered what should have been an empty football locker room. He was
surprised to hear the showers running and noises he thought sounded like
sexual activity, according to a Pennsylvania grand jury “finding of fact”
released Saturday.
When he looked in the shower he saw what he estimated to be a 10-year-old
boy, hands pressed up against the wall, “being subjected to anal
intercourse,” by Jerry Sandusky, then 58 and Penn State’s former defensive
coordinator. The grad assistant said both the boy and the coach saw him
before he fled to his office where, distraught and stunned, the grad
assistant telephoned his father, who instructed his son to flee the building.

eight boys.

The next day, a Saturday, the grad assistant went to the home of head coach
Joe Paterno and told him what he had seen. The day after that, Paterno
called Penn State athletic director Tim Curley to his home to report that
the grad assistant had told him he had witnessed “Jerry Sandusky in the
Lasch Building showers fondling or doing something of a sexual nature to a
young boy.”
A week-and-a-half later, according to the grand jury report, the grad
assistant was called to a meeting with Curley and Gary Schultz, the school’
s senior vice president for finance and business, where he retold his story.
Sandusky had retired from the Penn State program in 1999, a surprise to many
who saw him as a possible successor to Paterno. He instead dedicated
himself to “Second Mile,” a group home he founded in 1977 dedicated to
helping troubled boys. He often brought troubled kids through the Penn State
facilities, including the famed Beaver Stadium, bought them gifts and took
them to sporting events.
Curley did not notify university police or have the graduate assistant
further questioned involving the incident. No other legal or university
entity investigated the case.
Merely alerting police would’ve been significant since they investigated
Sandusky in 1998 for “incidents with children in football building showers.
” Curley never asked for a background check on Sandusky.
Curley instead took it upon himself to inform the director of “Second Mile
” about the charge, although it didn’t concern potential sodomy of a minor.
Curley told the grand jury he was merely told that Sandusky was “horsing
around” with the boy. The grand jury did not find that credible in part
because Schultz said he had gotten the impression “Sandusky might have
inappropriately grabbed the young boys’ genitals while wrestling around.”
Both Curley and Schultz are charged with perjury for claiming the grad
assistant didn’t inform them of “sexual activity.”
Curley later met with Sandusky and told him he was no longer allowed to
bring children onto the Penn State campus. He forwarded the report on to
university president Graham Spanier, who approved of Sandusky’s ban from
bringing children onto campus and himself never reported the incident to
police.
On the base of the grand jury findings Sandusky was arrested Saturday
morning and charged with seven counts of involuntary deviate sexual
intercourse; eight counts of corruption of minors, eight counts of
endangering the welfare of a child, seven counts of indecent assault and
other offenses. He was released Saturday on $100,000 bail.
Pennsylvania’s attorney general cited incidents involving Sandusky that ran
from 1994 until 2009, including the above act.
[Grand jury findings: Read the press release]
Curley and Schultz are expected to turn themselves in to authorities on
Monday. The attorneys for both men released statements proclaiming their
innocence.
“This is a case about a sexual predator who used his position within the
university and community to repeatedly prey on young boys,” attorney
general Linda Kelly said. “It is also a case about high-ranking university
officials who allegedly failed to report the sexual assault of a young boy
after the information was brought to their attention, and later made false
statements to a grand jury that was investigating a series of assaults on
young boys.”
It is actually even more than that, a stomach-turning 23-page grand jury
report that could be the ugliest scandal in the history of college athletics.

Magisterial District Judge Leslie A. Dutchcot on Saturday.

The failure of Penn State officials to call in the proper authorities
potentially allowed the alleged sexual predator to live free for an
additional nine-and-a-half years.
This case demands answers to deep and troubling questions right up the chain
of command at Penn State, including Spanier and the legendary Paterno.
Instead, thus far, all we’ve gotten is a pathetic statement from Spanier
who quite incredibly deemed Sandusky’s charges as merely “troubling” (and
said little more) and then expressed continued support for Curley and
Schultz.
“The allegations about a former coach are troubling, and it is appropriate
that they be investigated thoroughly,” the statement read. “Protecting
children requires the utmost vigilance … I wish to say that Tim Curley and
Gary Schultz have my unconditional support.”
Really, that’s it? That’s what the guy who is running Penn State has to
say? That’s all he thought was appropriate?
Curley and Schultz need to be suspended immediately. Some actual adult in
Pennsylvania needs to step in and sit Spanier down also and not merely for
issuing a statement that expressed no concern for the victims, no shock at
the charges, some of which occurred on his campus, and little concern about
crimes this despicable.
More importantly, Spanier needs to be immediately removed from an authority
position since his culpability is tied to Curley. After all, Spanier both
knew of the allegations against Sandusky and approved of Curley’s handling
of the case.
That includes an act almost unfathomable in its insensitivity. According to
the attorney general, no one at Penn State ever tried to find the boy. At
worst, he was raped in a shower. At best, according to testimony that law
enforcement finds non-credible, he was either “horsing around” with or
being “inappropriately grabbed” by an old man in an empty locker room.
Yet no one thought they should go find the kid so he and his family could
get proper help or further protection. Not even the university president?
“Despite a powerful eyewitness statement about the sexual assault of a
child, this incident was not reported to any law enforcement or child
protective agency, as required by Pennsylvania law,” said Kelly, the
attorney general. “Additionally, there is no indication that anyone from
the university ever attempted to learn the identity of the child.”
How? How could all these people of power, people of education, people of
authority simply look the other way? And how could Graham Spanier maintain a
level of arrogance to release that statement on this day?
There can simply be no tolerance, no leniency, no looking the other way with
any charge involving an adult and a child. None. There isn’t a gray area
here, not only in the letter of the law, but in the spirit of any semblance
of ethical conduct.
The legal process will and should be allowed to play out and determine the
guilt and innocence of all involved. The accused have the right to a proper
defense in a court of law.
In a broader sense, however, an immediate, thorough and limitless
investigation must be launched by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to find
out why this wasn’t turned over to the proper authorities. This isn’t just
about what it is and isn’t a crime, it’s about what is and isn’t right.
[Related: Sandusky, others charged in child sex case]
The chief question is this: If Curley, Schultz and Spanier believed it was
no longer appropriate to allow Sandusky to bring children onto the Penn
State campus – an act that suggests some concern over his behavior – how
could they possibly believe his actions didn’t warrant a full police
investigation?
And then there is the conduct of Paterno, the 84-year-old legend. He is
beloved for being the winningest coach in college football history and for
running a program for more than five decades that never ran afoul of NCAA
statutes.
While he may have committed no crime, he must fully explain the actions he
took after hearing such an unspeakable allegation.
Did he really listen to this story and think merely telling the AD was
enough? Why did he wait a day to summon Curley to his home? Wouldn’t a
charge like this take precedent over pretty much everything? Why didn’t he
personally look into it further? This is something that allegedly happened
in his locker room, by a man he both coached and employed as a trusted
assistant for a combined 33 years?
Technically Paterno may have done the right thing, reporting the allegation
to his superior, but he isn’t just some middle manager. Tim Curley worked
for Joe Paterno more than Joe Paterno worked for Tim Curley. He could’ve
called in the police himself.
Paterno was 75 at the time and his advancing age and the limits of his
participation in the program are well known. That simply can’t be used as
an excuse. Positions of authority come with great responsibility and
advancing age does not excuse someone of merely accepting the plaudits of
success while avoiding the more difficult duties of the position.
Paterno may very well have appropriate answers to all of the above questions
and more. He needs to give them. Four-hundred-plus victories shouldn’t
absolve anyone from being accountable in a case such as this.
This is a scandal that goes beyond nearly anything college athletics has
ever witnessed. These are the most horrific charges that can be made, the
worst of the worst kind of crime that haunts victims forever.
The time for hiding behind statements and closed doors and parsed
explanations from so-called leaders are over.
This demands real investigation conducted by real adults, something that’s
at least eight years and who knows how many unnecessary victims overdue.
