Legendary Penn State Coach Joe Paterno is in trouble.  When it was brought to his attention that his assistant coach, Jerry Sandusky, committed a sexual assault on a young boy he didn’t go to the police. He reported it to Tim Curley, the athletic director. Well this was not the only instance. There were a total of 20 during a 15 year period. This makes one wonder what Joe Paterno knew and covered up.

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. – Fox 29 has learned the number of child-abuse in the Penn State sex-abuse scandal involving ex-coach Jerry Sandusky has more than doubled in the past day, and is closer to 20 victims

There were eight victims named in the grand jury presentment and 40 charges leveled against Sandusky, a long-time assistant to Penn State head football coach Joe Paterno. Paterno was not named in the grand jury finding as violating any laws.

Sources tell Fox 29 since a press conference on Monday, the number of potential victims has more than doubled in the case.

Sandusky was arrested in the case and made bail, while two Penn State administrators face charges related to how an alleged crime was reported in the case to police and investigators.

Clarely Joe Paterno had to have known something. This case threatens to bring him down and destroy his legacy.
