NU Friends,
I am at a loss to understand how Mike McQueary remains on the payroll at Penn State. By his own sworn grand jury testimony he saw a young boy being abused. His only actions were to call his father and later tell Joe Paterno. For years after that he must have seen Sandusky on campus and bowl trips with more young children. I don't know how he can live with himself.
A) He could have intervened in the shower room.
B) He could have pulled the fire alarm and then run to a phone.
C) He could have made an anonymous call to the police (his father could have too, what's wrong with that guy?)
D) He could have made follow-up inquiries to several different people.
Since 1993 Penn State has been my second favorite Big Ten team. If they allow him to remain on the payroll and represent the school on Saturday, that is over.
To be clear, my issue with him has NOTHING to do with the law or legal obligations. It had everything to do with being a person of clear conscience and good character. Sadly, I think the reason that he has been kept on staff is that if he is fired he's free to talk and he'll have A LOT more to say.
Success with Honor - what a joke.
Jim
