Penn State sex scandal
This very horrible and cruel what happened at Penn State. Lately their has been a serious problem between the assistant coach and the children. Assistant coach Jerry Sandusky sexually assaulted or had inappropriate contact with at least eight underage boys on or near university property. Being said he has encountered at least a count of 40 child molestation starting from 1994 to 2009. several high-level school officials were suspended, or dismissed for allegedly covering up the incidents or failing to notify authorities. Also Joe Paterno, the head coach for Penn State was also from his position and school president Graham Spanier was forced to resign. For last 23 of those years, he was the team's defensive coordinator. Sandusky was as assistant coach under head coach Joe Paterno for the Penn State Football team for 31 seasons from 1969 to 1969. The investigation was initiated in the spring of 2008, after the mother of a boy (identified in court papers as "Victim 1"), then a freshman at Central Mountain High School in Clinton County, Pennsylvania, reported that the boy had been sexually abused by Sandusky. According to court papers, Sandusky had been having a relationship involving "inappropriate touching" with Victim 1 since 2005 or 2006, when the boy was 11 or 12.In their testimony before the grand jury, Paterno, Curley, and Schultz rejected the version of the incident presented by Mike McQueary. Paterno testified that he was only told about Sandusky "fondling or doing something of a sexual nature" to the victim. Curley and Schultz both denied having been told about alleged anal intercourse. Curley denied that McQueary reported anything of sexual nature whatsoever, and described the conduct as merely "horsing around".
