So what happened to this guy? No body ever found, no signs of suicide or foul play. Sounds like a professional took him out.

Now, you'll have to look up whatever links they had found online as I don't have them, but apparently police found his hard drive from his laptop that had all the evidence in a river but could not recover anything from it and later when they searched his home pc were google searches for "how to wreck a hard drive" and more.

There are apparently sightings of this guy now and again too in different states.

So, if you want to all Unsolved Mysteries on it, sounds like he was paid to disappear. Also, now that we hear there may have been a whole ring involved.....this actually sounds plausable.

Who knows

There was a report about the lawyer representing one of the victims saying that he didn't want JoePa fired over this scandal because he didn't want his client associated with the downfall of the football program. It was a pretty stupid statement in general and I think that spurred the creation of that article.

that makes sense cuz i got that it was a joke, couldnt understand the timing and context. With tha.t lawyer statement I see the opening for it but still its too soon

Only speculation at this point but my local station just reported the boys may have been used as prostitutes to high priced donors

Yeah, still a rumor. Also rumored that all the boys 'used' were black underprivelidged kids too. Adding the element of racism to the issue. Still waiting on confirmations of that though.

If people don't understand how damaging this kind of abuse can be for young people, just take the example of Ashley Billasano in today's Chronicle.

Teen tweets about impending suicide because of abuse

And to think JoePa (and many others) could have prevented this tragedy from occuring to others - but they stood by and did nothing. Makes me sick to my stomach.

I am here to say that the more I here about this my view is changing ever so slowly. Why is the AD on admin leave and the new coach still part of the old staff? Fire Joe and the school President then can them all.

A good read by an NHL player that was the victim of abuse as a child.

A source inside the Pennsylvania State police department, in Harrisburg, told The Daily Beast today that calls from other potential victims or people who believe they know victims are flowing in. "Yes, we're receiving calls," the source said, noting that the whole office is being kept "very busy," and that each and every call will be thoroughly investigated. The source would not say exactly how many calls the office had been received, but added that the line was being manned 24/7.

I'm starting to swing this way myself Gary. I think their best course of action right now is to shut down the program for the rest of the season and all of next season.

They're associated with a child molester now. I don't think that they can ever get over that.

I hope they can get some sort of satisfaction and closure . I can't think of anything more humiliating for a young man than this .

I errored when calling this a "child sex" case. Any violation of a child is rape. This is a "child rape" case. My apologies.

Brooks is right can a MOD plaese change thread name

Someone mentioned if over state lines, this could have federal charges also?

Maybe our great state of Texas can show Pennsylvania how to punish all involved. How about a charge of accessory after the fact.

An accessory after the fact is someone who knowingly and willingly helps the principle actors and/or the accomplice to evade arrest or trial. Anyone here a lawyer? I am wrong in thinking that all who covered up this abuse therefor gave the opportunity for future abuse of child in Texas so could be prosecuted.

Bump the thread so I might get a answer

They have lost a TV sponsor also.

"A person familiar with the decision says Cars.com has pulled out as the "presenting sponsor" of two college football games on ESPN involving Penn State in the wake of the sex-abuse scandal engulfing the program."
