Penn State, You Got Raped, We Hid the Truth. Here's a Wad of Cash, Please Be Quiet Now and Go Away?



Jerry Sandusky rape payout by Penn State - Link

Penn State says it will pay $59.7 million to 26 young men over claims of child sexual abuse by former assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky



Sandusky, 69, has been pursuing appeals while he serves a 30- to 60-year state prison sentence.

Three former Penn State administrators await trial in Harrisburg on charges they engaged in a criminal cover-up of the Sandusky scandal. Former president Graham Spanier, retired vice president Gary Schultz and retired athletic director Tim Curley deny the allegations, and a trial date has not been scheduled.

Eight young men testified against Sandusky, describing a range of abuse they said went from grooming and manipulation to fondling, oral sex and anal rape when they were boys.
I hate shit like this for one simple reason. It's a public relations ploy to silence those who most likely have been unwilling victims of an horrible crime.
A once proud college, that knew at some level this had happened or was ongoing and chose a sports program and alumni over the right thing and they are buying silence.
They don't want more stuff hitting the court system or public record, so the buy a "quick fix".

Something is rotten in Denmark here and we'll never know the true scope of everything that happened.
