Default Very Sad News in Happy Valley. Paterno's legacy appears to end in scandal

It's unfathomable to me that four people in such high positions at Penn State could act so wrecklessly by covering up Jerry Sandusky's criminal acts over such as long period of time.

According to one SI article regarding the internal investigation of the Penn State's handling of the Sandusky scandal called the Freeh Report found the following:

"Paterno received particular scorn in the report, which alleges that he actively discouraged Penn State officials from reporting Sandusky to law enforcement. Freeh's report also implies that Paterno perjured himself while testifying before the Sandusky grand jury. In his testimony, Paterno claimed to only know about the 2001 shower incident purportedly witnessed by graduate assistant Mike McQueary. Freeh's report says that Paterno also knew about the 1998 investigation."

What were Paterno and his coherts thinking? Please read this article for the full story.
