[Dreams-Visions]

The worst thing is that as old as he is, he probably won't serve even 20 years before he finally dies.

indeed. justice coming, though much too late.

 

[Joe Shlabotnik]

The worst thing is that as old as he is, he probably won't serve even 20 years before he finally dies.

It'll be a long fucking twenty years for him as a serial child rapist in prison.

 

[B.K.]

Maybe sooner with prison justice

They'll keep him in protective custody. There's no way they ever release him into the general population.

 

[Sanjuro]

He hasn't coached a game since 1999.

I know, kids at Penn State would probably believe he has.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

He will be in a protective unit. But I wouldn't be shocked if a guard looked the other way.

Neither would I. You know I wouldn't feel sorry either if they did. I may be a cold heartless bastard but I wouldn't.

 

[Pollux]

So, how hard does the NCAA drop the hammer on Penn State?

People in here know my feeling on this but I'll just say it again. Death penalty...permanently.

 

[Gary Whitta]

They'll keep him in protective custody. There's no way they ever release him into the general population.

True. Then again, a lot of prison guards have kids.

 

[SerArthurDayne]

Doubt he will since they immediately revoked his bail.

Good, Good. I hadn't heard anything on the networks about it yet.

That could also be a formality, revoke the bail and then grant bond at the court's discretion. Going to jail tonight looks like, and hopefully he goes straight to prison.

Hopefully his family has some money for when they sue him later.

No smiley faces from the back of the car this time.

 

[Talamius]

It'll be a long fucking twenty years for him as a serial child rapist in prison.

He'll spend the rest of his life in solitary. No fucking way is he allowed among the general population.

I honestly just saw a little smirk as he drove off.

 

[MThanded]

More people need to be locked up.
People in Penn State administration turning a blind eye to this ridiculous abuse.

We need more justice.

 

[Pollux]

Mistakes are made, he might "accidentally" end up out on the yard one afternoon...

 

[ChiTownBuffalo]

Well...442 year max sentence if he gets it.

 

[Nelo Ice]

Justice was served but now I want to see how fucked Penn State is. If there's any more justice their football program is going to be DEAD.

 

[SerArthurDayne]

60yr minimum. Game over.

Oh I'm with you. The SOB who saw him raping a kid in the showers should join him. Hell of Joe Pa was alive he damn well should have too.

He was found guilty of crimes against every child.

 

[MThanded]

Turning a blind eye all in the name of college football. Crazy stuff. How ridiculous.

 

[Lonestar]

The whole thing with the thought of "what does the NCAA" do is tricky.

What can they do? They aren't involved in criminal matters. They only deal with academics and amatuer statis. It'll be interesting to see if they do something, just to see the precedent created, and how the future of the NCAA will be after that.

Like the NCAA gives a shit about precedent and consistency...?

 

[GitarooMan]

The scene with the crowd out front is fucking weird.

 

[legend166]

Guilty charge tied to every victim. That's good news.

"Defense attorney Karl Rominger, as he exits the courtroom: "It was a tough case. We didn't exactly have a lot of time to prepare."

Excuses excuses. Your fucking client was guilty as sin.

They should shut that program down. The money and power of it allowed this to go on. Fuck it. Fuck Penn State.

 

[BertramCooper]

Sandusky's face as they were putting him in the police car was pretty fucking awesome.

If what happened at Penn State doesn't fall under "lack of institutional control," then the NCAA needs to come up with a new definition.

There is no ethics clause at all?

Hell he knew he was. He made the remark the other day that if he was found innocent of all charges Sandusky would have a heart attack. So they knew he was guilty as sin.

 

[Gary Whitta]

I think the Sandusky conviction was a lock. Now that that's done with it is definitely time to turn the focus hard onto the institutional enabling that took place at Penn State. It sounds like Freeh has been doing some serious work, and I hope it all ends with all those responsible facing criminal charges, just just Sandusky.

Not going to happen. Civil trials are up next. Penn State better get their checkbook's ready.

Yep.

This is the very definition of lack of institutional control. What SMU did was NOTHING compared to this.

 

[giga]

Horrible ruling. Hopefully they reinstate Paterno and McQueary. Gonna go riot at beaver stadium. Fuck this shit.

Without a doubt. I really hope that too. Just a small part of justice was served tonight. Justice won't be fully served till every person who let this happen pays. Sadly not all of them will.

Wow this guy is DONE

Clever!

Sarcasm from the GTech guy.

 

[RiccochetJ]

A person like that gets essentially solitary for the rest of his life right? There's no way he'd be allowed in general population.

Hopefully no trigger happy mod reads this post. Only some people here get the sarcasm lol.

Speaking of mods a thread title update probably wouldn't hurt if any are around and feeling nice enough to do one for us.

Depends on the state/prison. Either solitary or some kind of special protective unit where they keep crooked cops and pederasts, basically anyone with a high likelihood of being targeted by other prisoners.

Exactly. Penn State has to pay for protecting and enabling this nutjob. This doesn't end here.

That will most likely be the case yes; but, considering the case, who knows what could happen.

 

[Fox Mulder]

yeah, fuck penn state. Corrupt as shit for the money football brings in while children are being abused like this. Shut the program down, the university will be paying out tons of money anyways.

 

[UrokeJoe]

I hope his prison showers aren't solitary.

 

[twinturbo2]

Dude better watch his cornhole

Did I just see someone on CNN in the backround with a "tax the Amish" sign? wow lol

 

[lazybones18]

Justice

 

[Gary Whitta]

Exactly. Penn State has to pay for protecting and enabling this nutjob. This doesn't end here.

If anything, hopefully the conviction will now really open the floodgates on investigating all the rest of it. There's no doubts any more about whether or not this really happened, the guy has been convicted dozens of times over, and the only question now is who else was responsible?

I hope his prison showers aren't solitary.

Sweet poetic justice considering how many innocent lives Sandusky wrecked in a communal shower.
