Why is there not outrage towards Mike McQueary?

Reporting it later would have been - what? "Where's yer evidence, kid? Washed down the shower drain?"

"Where's the victim, kid?"

And finally, "Your word against a local legend, icon of the community, etc, and you're a ex-PSU not-much-of-a-QB jock that might have an ax to grind against him."

Then he visits the school's top leaders and tells them. And they laugh, "Yes, and that's why we waiting a whole week. Whatcha gonna do now, kid? Cop's'll ask why ya waited so long, kid."

"But let's be friendly about this. What would it take for you to stay shut up, over it? How about a job?"

So he gets the job. But ends up in front of the grand jury anyway.
 
Earlier in the week, Penn State assistant coach Mike McQueary sent outemails to friends claiming that despite what the grand jury report said, he did stop Jerry Sandusky from raping a 10-year-old boy – But not physically, mind you. – and also contacted the police along with going toJoe Paterno. Except yesterday both campus and State College police gave statements claiming McQueary never called them. CBS News reports:
In the email, McQueary did not specify which police department he spoke to.
But a spokesperson for Penn State’s campus police told CBS News that they never received a sex abuse report from McQueary. Separately, State College Police Chief Thomas R. King told CBS News that his department has no record of ever being contacted by McQueary regarding allged sex abuse.
The university also has its own police force. Penn State administrators said they were looking into whether McQueary contacted campus police. A university official also told CBS News Tuesday that, to her knowledge, no police report was filed.
While that seems damning, here’s where it gets really interesting for McQueary. According to a new report from the New York Times (Worth a read, by the way.), McQueary immediately came clean to grand jury investigators over a year ago when they deduced through Penn State Internet forums that he’d witnessed Jerry Sandusky molesting kids:
He told of a horrific scene he had stumbled upon as a graduate assistant one Friday night in March 2002: a naked boy, about 10, hands pressed against the locker room wall of the Lasch Football Building, being raped by Sandusky. McQueary was explicit and unequivocal, the people said. He had told Paterno, the team’s longtime and widely beloved head coach, about the incident the next day, but he was filled with regret that nothing had happened.
“This had been weighing on him for a very long time, and our guys felt he was relieved to get it off his chest,” one law enforcement official said. “When he had the opportunity to make it right, he told the truth.”
So at this point, who honestly knows what the **** happened? Maybe McQueary spent years living with the guilt that he traded a child’s innocence for a promotion, eventually decided to make it right but wasn’t prepared for the backlash hence the emails. Or maybe he really did report it to both campus and State College police who swept the whole thing under the rug, I seriously wouldn’t be surprised at this point. Right now Joe Paterno’s probably dressed like Boss Hog telling everybody them Duke boys better not find them other kids or “it’ll be your hide.”
 
It's pretty convenient on all sides. McQueary can claim he went to the police, who can say they have no record of any such report. To which McQueary can say that they didn't take him seriously, or swept it under the rug, or that they decided to not pursue it because of a lack of evidence, or whatever. At this point, we have no idea what happened, because we're getting two contradictory stories, neither of which can be corroborated.
 
Have they found the vic yet? He would be around 18 or 19. I think it is important that they find him. I heard Sandusky's attorney say that they "believe they know who he is" and that his testimony would help Sandusky. Probably "lawyer speak" but who knows? The lawyer must be pretty stupid if he allowed his client to go on with Bob Costas.

they can pay any dude from the hood to testify that he was the one, but how do they prove that?

You're assuming any amount of money would persuade a dude from the hood to say he had another man's **** up his ass - I don't know about that

people are strange. I didn't think any of this scandal was in the realm of possibility, either
 
Cocaine is a hell of a drug.
