Similar Stories to Son: Joe Paterno Feared Wrongly Accusing Sandusky on Bing News

(AP) — Former Penn State football coach Joe Paterno told his son the day after his firing that he hadn't informed the coaching staff about allegations Jerry Sandusky may be a child molester because he was unsure whether they were true, Jay Paterno writes in a new book. For Jay Paterno, the realization about Sandusky came within a few days of his father's testimony before the grand jury in January 2011. [...] he said, he had thought of Sandusky as someone who was doing a lot of good for people — Sandusky had established a charity for at-risk children in the 1970s, and prosecutors later determined he used it to find and groom victims. Three former Penn State administrators are awaiting trial on charges they participated in a criminal cover-up of allegations against Sandusky: former university president Graham Spanier, former athletic director Tim Curley and former vice president Gary Schultz. Sandusky, who spent decades as Joe Paterno's lead defensive assistant, was convicted two years ago of sexually abusing 10 boys and is serving a lengthy prison sentence.
