No, Sandusy was found guilty of four of the five charges stemming from the incident that McQueary witnessed. He was also found not guilty of two charges related to other victims.Weren't the accusations by MM the only one JS was found not guilty of?
Let's not forget that ex wife Barbie was entitled to a divorce settlement. I believe he also had a young daughter? So many lives ruined.Was awarded $12.3mm from his case. against PSU. Settled with PSU, presumably for less. Then there is the attorney's cut, usually 30-40%, so McQueary netted considerably less than $14mm. Hope he chokes on it.
Whatever Judas did or didn't do was Ira's idea first.Trying to be objective in this case, setting aside McQ the person, I felt he deserved the award. One of the very few, or maybe the only award paid out around the scandal that was actually merited.
Joyner botched that termination by not following the contract and simply doing the most straightforward thing. Had Joyner just paid him per the contract, as done with the other coaches who were let go under the same circumstances, it would have cost PSU a lot less than the $12mm. And it would have been behind them sooner and with far less noise.
I wonder if Ira had his hand in this one?
How did you see it?
(All that said, yes indeed, choke away).
It's tuff to get a murder conviction without a corpse. The "little boy in the shower" never stepped up to claim millions. I wonder why?Weren't the accusations by MM the only one JS was found not guilty of?
The evil cabal of the BOT intentionally threw Joe under the bus and intentionally threw gas on the fire of the situation to draw the media spotlight away from their incestuous ties with the Second Mile.Yes, his failure was not in not reporting, but of crisis mgmt. While he tried to get in front of the psu response to the breaking news in November 2011, the bot had already started down the wrong path by delaying any defense of psu. The bot ultimately surrendered without a fight.
So that kid never got paid by PSU? Actually the way PSU processed claims they probably paid three people for that single incident.It's tuff to get a murder conviction without a corpse. The "little boy in the shower" never stepped up to claim millions. I wonder why?
According to this Reuters report, Allan Meyers admitted that he was the boy in the shower in 2001. I'm pretty sure he got a settlement.So that kid never got paid by PSU? Actually the way PSU processed claims they probably paid three people for that single incident.
That's as clear as mud.Aaroding to this Reuters report, Allan Meyers admitted that he was the boy in the shower in 2001. I'm pretty sure he got a settlement.

The article, my typo, or both?That's as clear as mud.
IIRC Alan Myers initially said that JS didn't abuse him. He testified that he couldn't remember 34 times. Then later he said he was victim #2 and JS abused him, just not the night MM walked in. He collected $6.9 million.It's tuff to get a murder conviction without a corpse. The "little boy in the shower" never stepped up to claim millions. I wonder why?
The article. Apologies for any confusion.The article, my typo, or both?
No, the typo was the cause of the confusion.The article. Apologies for any confusion.
TrueWeren't the accusations by MM the only one JS was found not guilty of?
IIRC MM (or Eschbach) said that he witnessed JS holding victim 2 up against the wall and hearing slapping sounds. In other words anal rape. Of course MM also said he saw the boy and he wasn't distressed. That was when MM was covering his own rear end for leaving the kid behind.Nope
This is really simple. Of the 48 charges against Sandusky, he was found not-guilty on three. Of those one (of five) was related to the Lasch iincident to which McQueary testified. The other two were related to two other victims.IIRC MM (or Eschbach) said that he witnessed JS holding victim 2 up against the wall and hearing slapping sounds. In other words anal rape. Of course MM also said he saw the boy and he wasn't distressed. That was when MM was covering his own rear end for leaving the kid behind.
I'm no expert but I'm pretty sure a 10 yr old boy who was anal raped would be very distressed.
“Dick Nixon in ‘72, before he dicks you.” Men’s Room Wall, Schnecksville Ale House.Nixon's the one. You can't lick our Dick
I would like to see statistics on how frequently victims “forget” their trauma and are later helped by repressed memory theory? It seems like nearly every one of his victims fell into that category, which to me seems like it would be statistically unlikely.Some particularly sad things:
- Eschbach lied about what MM told her in the grand jury presentment and got away with it.
- The PSU BOT didn't defend the university (like Michigan State, Ohio State, etc).
- IIRC Curley, Shultz, and Spanier were charged with a crime based on a law that wasn't in effect at the time.
It wasn't every victim but it was most. These are mostly poor kids that grew up with troubled families in troubled neighborhoods. After JS was found guilty it had to be very tempting when an attorney approached them promising $$$ if they would "remember" being touched improperly.I would like to see statistics on how frequently victims “forget” their trauma and are later helped by repressed memory theory?

Funny, I'd give him my vote in November....considering the rif raf we have to choose between“Dick Nixon in ‘72, before he dicks you.” Men’s Room Wall, Schnecksville Ale House.
I don't think he made everything up. I think he was genuinely concerned but I doubt he could really tell what was going on. That's probably why he used soft language with dad, Dranov, Joe, Curley, and Shultz. Then authorities leaned on him for not doing more so he started to embellish his story to cover his own rear end.You believe Magic Mike in this instance? Don't know either way, but McQueary's credibility is less than zero.
Agree.I don't think he made everything up. I think he was genuinely concerned but I doubt he could really tell what was going on. That's probably why he used soft language with dad, Dranov, Joe, Curley, and Shultz. Then authorities leaned on him for not doing more so he started to embellish his story to cover his own rear end.
That seems most likely to me. Occam's razor.
Since he was physically incapable of that, it is certain Big Red did not witness that act.This is really simple. Of the 48 charges against Sandusky, he was found not-guilty on three. Of those one (of five) was related to the Lasch iincident to which McQueary testified. The other two were related to two other victims.
My recollection is that Magic Mike didn't see Jerry's dick up the kid's a$$ so Jerry was acquitted on that charge.
That's it. Y'all wanna knock yourselves out over other details go ahead.
And you know that how?Since he was physically incapable of that, it is certain Big Red did not witness that act.
Of course , that would also mean JS was incapable of most of the other things he was accused.
Didn't Jerry tell John Ziegler? If we can't trust Sandusky and Ziegler, who can we trust?And you know that how?
Surely not those who testified nor those that prosecuted the case. Lies all aroundDidn't Jerry tell John Ziegler? If we can't trust Sandusky and Ziegler, who can we trust?
Nit,Since he was physically incapable of that, it is certain Big Red did not witness that act.
Of course , that would also mean JS was incapable of most of the other things he was accused.
or would ever want to be anywhere near him again yet invited Sandusky to his wedding or driven all the way from North Carolina for Sandusky's mom's funeral IIRC.IIRC MM (or Eschbach) said that he witnessed JS holding victim 2 up against the wall and hearing slapping sounds.
