If you haven’t been following the Jerry Sandusky story that broke this weekend, you might be missing the biggest (and by that I mean “most disgusting”) scandal to ever hit college football.
Sandusky was an assistant coach with Penn State under the legendary Joe Paterno for 30 years, and defensive coordinator from 1977 until he retired in 1999. No one was better at finding ways to penetrate the gap and pound the opponent, which was also the problem because this weekend he was arrested for 40 counts of sexual abuse against 8 boys, some of which happened while he was coaching, inside the football facilities at Penn State.
Most of the abuse stemmed from a charity he founded in 1977 called “Second Mile” for boys from dysfunctional families, “for children who need additional support and who would benefit from positive human contact”, which this sick fuck basically used as a dating service to meet his victims.
According to the indictment (which you can read in full, with all the disgusting details, here) several of the alleged crimes took place on campus, in the Lasch Football Building. In the spring of 2002, a graduate assistant reported he witnessed Sandusky sodomizing a young boy in the shower. He later testified that he told coach Joe Paterno the very next day.”
Prosecutors say Paterno alerted athletic director Tim Curley. Curley called in Gary Schultz, the university’s senior vice president for finance and business. A week and a half later, both met with the graduate assistant, but never contacted police.
Curley and Schultz will be arraigned in District Court today for charges of perjury and failure to report the crimes, but so far no charges have been filed against Paterno, even though it really seems like they should be.
And yes the name of his biography really is “Touched”. Touched by Jerry Sandusky. The book “goes behind the scenes to explore the successes and challenges that Jerry Sandusky has faced in life, both on and off the football field,” though I pray to God that’s not true. If your challenges are stuff like, “why is this little boys anus so tight? I thought the shower would relax him.”, you can just keep that shit to yourself.
