I remember there were protesters at the shrine one time that had something to do with this issue and the police had to close it off. It was a shame because it was a big weekend and there were a lot of people who wanted to get their photos taken there, just like this weekend with the graduation ceremonies I suppose. They all had to be turned away. Yes, they definitely need to put in some 24 hour security there.

Ok, so I know who Osaze and Tim are - who are Ashley and Justine? And what did Penn State do to them?

I'm pretty sure they are referring to Justine Gross.



Not sure about Ashley.

Justine somehow managed to fall down the trash chute at Beaver Terrace apartments. Considering that most of the listed victims were Anglo, I’m trying to determine the connection between the 320/pro BLM group and this vandalism. It doesn’t make sense.

What do the initials “ADG” mean? The perp couldn’t have been sufficiently stupid to leave behind their initials, would they?

While I don't have office answers to your questions, a few guesses. One, it is a crime scene, so they will need to complete their investigation prior to any clean up. Two, several years ago, a full casting of the shine was made in case there was future damage. So they will be able to remake the ear. Unfortunately, matching the stone color and then reattaching will be noticeable. I would think it should be open by then, likely sooner. Will they make Arts Festival, I doubt it.

Criminal activity - willful destruction of private property with intent of 'something'. 5 year prison sentence to 'learn how to object' - and throw away the key.

When Justine Gross died, there was criticism of the police investigation not being thorough because she wasn't white.

Have there been any suspects identified or communications to fix the Lion Shrine?

Any update in the Shrine? I see pictures posted that seem to be recent and it looks back to normal.

How could they not go to Lowe’s?
Considering in State College how Home Depot and Lowes are literally across the street from each other, Home Depot is actually closer to campus and knowing PSU workers, they want to expend as little effort as possible because PSU salaries are extremely low. :cool:

Sounds like fiscal responsibility. Or, waste money, don’t give it to the little people.

I believe one of the reports was that they had to powerwash it to get the paint off.
