From there, if you want to keep the person on while the investigation is progressing, o.k., but make damn sure he is never alone with a child, a player, or a student.
Hell, if he had done that and Sandusky got probation (as the vast majority of sex offenders - including pedophiles - do) and Sandusky was in a sex offender treatment program I still wouldn't have a problem with retaining him. In fact, it could have been a good thing - because the people at Penn State would have known to watch Sandusky and not leave him alone with children. This would be far better than firing him and he goes and takes a job somewhere else and coaches at a grade, middle, or high school and nobody knows. That is what the Catholic Church did for years - just move predators when they were caught, and never report them (and actually they did not even fire them just reassigned them). But Jo Pa and PSU did NOTHING to protect kids. And they are not the only ones.
Exactly, and Paterno continued to allow that sick bastard to hold his football camps there for years and years.
Makes me ill.
