young assistant coach witnessed the rape in the showers & went to his father....his father didn't feel the need to call the police?

i understand coach felt maybe he would lose the job he wanted & maybe dreamed of & then his career but you stand up for what is right...so in this case let's not also forget this coach's dad failed him as well. kid should have known to go to PD...but obviously his daddy didn't lead him the right way.

i can see being unsure about what to do...young coach & stuff..i was a young college coach right after i graduated...but make no mistake if i saw a rape of a child i would have been facing my own assault charges after i was done. & i am a short woman..not a big ex football player.

this whole incident is just so triggering for me..& i think the iceberg is just poking out above sea level. i believe many knew what was going on in the football program. it was easy to keep it buried & quiet as long as the program was as incredibly successful as it was. penn state was always so holier than thou when it came to cheating, etc...& now this...cheating is piddly ..nothing comparing to ruining someone's life.

my heart breaks for those children, now young adults, because as i said before...raped once & then now having to always hear how it was "their fault the mighty joe pa fell from grace" wrong..so wrong.

& not for nothing i WAS a penn state fan.
