Spanier plays washboard at Arts Fest
BY LORI FALCE


Tim Curley and Gary Schultz are in jail.

Centre County Correctional Facility officials confirmed Saturday that the two former Penn State executives surrendered themselves to begin the incarceration terms of their sentences before 6:58 a.m.

Both men entered guilty pleas in March to one count each of misdemeanor child endangerment in connection with the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse scandal. They were sentenced in June in Dauphin County Court, but permitted to serve their sentences in Centre County.

Former athletic director Curley received a sentence of seven to 23 months incarceration, with three months in jail before completing the term on house arrest. He is also set to spend two years on probation.

Former vice president Schultz is beginning a six to 23 month sentence, starting with two months in jail and the rest to be served on house arrest. He was also given a subsequent two years probation.

Both Curley and Schultz were granted work release.

According to court documents, Curley, who suffers from lung cancer, will work for a nonprofit cancer charity, the Team Ream Foundation, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays in development and fundraising, while Schultz plans to do part-time financial consulting work for Scott’s Landscaping in Centre Hall.

Both men testified against former Penn State president Graham Spanier, who was convicted of the same endangerment count. Spanier is appealing his conviction and his sentence is delayed pending that outcome.

Spanier did not stay home Saturday while his former employees and fellow defendants were adjusting to jail. Instead, he was seen on stage at the Central Pennsylvania Festival of the Arts, playing the washboard with the Rustical Quality String Band.

Spanier asked the court for a new trial or a judgment of acquittal in his motions leading up to an order on Thursday delaying his sentence. He also argued for house arrest due to medical problems, including cancer and cardiac issues.​

Graham Spanier's Legal Team Releases Statement Blaming Gov. Corbett​

Graham Spanier's Legal Team Releases Statement Blaming Gov. Corbett
by Laura Nichols on November 01, 2012 2:36 PM

Click photo for gallery
Former Penn State President Graham Spanier's legal team released a statement after he was charged in connection with his involvement in the Jerry Sandusky child sexual abuse scandal.

On Thursday, Spanier was formally charged by the Attorney General's Office for the first time. Former Penn State athletic director Tim Curley and former Penn State vice president Gary Schultz had charges added to their criminal case.

Curley, Schultz and Spanier are each charged with perjury, endangering the welfare of children, failure to report, criminal conspiracy and obstruction of justice. They are expected to be arraigned at 2 p.m. in Harrisburg on Friday.

Spanier's legal team released a statement on his behalf following Attorney General Linda Kelly's press conference held at noon in Harrisburg.

"Today's Presentment is the latest desperate act by Governor Tom Corbett to cover up and divert attention away from the fact that he failed to warn the Penn State community about the suspicions surrounding Jerry Sandusky, and instead knowingly allowed a child predator to roam free in Pennsylvania. Its timing speaks volumes. These charges are the work of a vindictive and politically motivated Governor working through an un-elected attorney general, Linda Kelly, whom he appointed to do his bidding and who will be a lame duck five days from now.

"There is no factual basis to support these charges, which may explain why the Attorney General and her staff have steadfastly refused – for a full year – to meet with Dr. Spanier or his lawyers to discuss this matter despite repeated attempts to do so, or to accept Dr. Spanier's offer to appear before the grand jury again to clarify any misconceptions.

"From late 2008 through November of 2011, as Pennsylvania's Attorney General, Tom Corbett clearly knew about the allegations against Jerry Sandusky and yet failed to act. And this failure allowed Sandusky to continue to harm children for nearly three years after he could have and should have been warned, stopped or indicted. The Governor's legally indefensible explanations, repeated by Attorney General Kelly at her news conference today – that he couldn't expose Sandusky for fear of compromising an ongoing grand jury investigation or that he needed more evidence – are patently absurd.

"And so, on the one hand, Corbett had access to detailed allegations about Sandusky's child abuse and, as the chief law enforcement officer for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, allowed it to continue. On the other, Dr. Spanier was not privy to any details about a 1998 investigation that actually exonerated Sandusky and then, in 2001, was told only about an incident characterized as "horseplay".

"Governor Corbett has made no secret of his personal hostility toward Dr. Spanier, as many witnesses will attest. He is now manipulating public officials and resources to settle a personal score.

"Linda Kelly's willingness to continue this farce, on behalf of the politically motivated Governor who appointed her, apparently knows no bounds. She has already been put on notice by both candidates for Attorney General, one of whom will replace her, that they intend to review her investigation thoroughly. For her to deny, as she did a few minutes ago, that politics played no role in these charges being made five days before an election, is patently false.

"Graham Spanier has committed no crime and looks forward to the opportunity to clear his good name and well-earned national reputation for integrity. This Presentment is a politically motivated frame-up of an innocent man. And if these charges ever come to trial, we will prove it.

"The people of this Commonwealth, and the next Attorney General, should be outraged by this blatantly political, transparently vindictive, last-minute act of cowardice and desperation."

The governor's team fired back, via a statement released by Gov. Corbett's press secretary, Kevin Harley.

"Graham Spanier's statement is the ranting of a man who has just been indicted for covering up for a convicted pedophile. His arrogance reveals a man who has just found out that he is not above the law after all."

Counsel for Curley, Caroline Roberto, released a statement later on Thursday afternoon, reiterating her client's innocence.

"The prosecution did not provide us any advance notice of the new charges. To be clear, Tim Curley is innocent of all charges.

"We are carefully reviewing the presentment and will reserve a more comprehensive comment for a later time.

"However, contrary to the Presentment's depiction of Cynthia Baldwin's professional relationship to Tim Curley, the accurate description of Ms. Baldwin 's actions before, during and after Mr. Curley's grand jury appearance are contained in the Omnibus Pre-Trial Motion and Mr. Curley's factual verification, both of which we filed today before the Presentment was issued."

How stupid.

Did Spanier force Curley and Schultz to take a plea that did not allow them to appeal? No.

Spanier should not exercise every legal right he has because Curley and Schultz went to jail? Of course he should.

Are Curley and Schultz in jail because of Spanier? No.

That moron is completely void of the facts.

Beyond that, I think things could get interesting in regards to "Malicious Prosecution" if Spanier prevails, which he likely will given the venue is the Superior Court where C,S&S prevailed before. This is especially so given that Boccabella at the request of Corrupt OAG reinstated Felony charges without basis or precedence against C,S&S in March that the Superior Court had previously thrown out - another clear act of "Malicious Prosecution" to create leverage born of prosecutorial misconduct against Curley & Schultz to get them to plea bargain to a misdemeanor to avoid facing Felony Charges that the Superior Court had already thrown out!

Sadly I believe you're right about the longevity of the national focus of Sandusky and our University, Alumni & supporting fan base. Following are excerpts form an article in the U.S. % World News: fudge the link to the article.

"Is it too soon for HBO's movie about Penn State's Jerry Sandusky scandal?"

"The first image of Al Pacino playing Joe Paterno in HBO's long-awaited movie about the Penn State scandal was finally released. The movie will educate people on one of the most horrific scandals in sports history. However, the dishonorable deeds are still fresh in a lot of people's minds, and releasing this movie could cause distress among those still affected by it."

"But however painful it may be to see the conversations taking place about an HBO movie, it is an important discussion to have. Negligence and complacency allowed innocent children to be taken advantage of by a sexual predator."

"It's not enough the victims have to live with what happened every day. When the HBO film comes out, they have to relive those awful moments all over again and listen to all the discussion around something that has affected their lives deeply. A film should be made about this scandal, but not enough time has passed to allow the victims to cope with the fallout. "

Boccabella's actions in regard to this case are beyond comical and patently corrupt. On Feb 1, 2017, he issued a ruling which reinstated Felony Conspiracy Charges which a HIGHER COURT, the PA Superior Court, had thrown out more than a year earlier in Jan 2016 (Boccabella is serving as a "County Judge" in the Dauphin County Court replacing Dauphin County Judge Hoover, who retired - he was named by Chief Justice Thomas Saylor under very abnormal circumstances as 100% of the remaining Dauphin County Judges recused themselves from the case!). C/S&S immediately appealed the absurd and patently corrupt ruling by Boccabella on Feb 15, 2017 see THIS SOURCE and this excerpt from the source:

They also question rulings on whether the men were mandated reporters at the time period in question, whether the child endangerment charges would violate both state and federal constitutions and how the remaining conspiracy charge can be pursued after “the Superior Court’s dismissal of the single consolidated conspiracy charge.”

Boccabella's absurd Feb 1, 2017 rulings - one of which diametrically conflicted with a Superior Court Ruling from a year earlier and essentially acted to have a lower-court over-rule and IGNORE a Higher Court Ruling and nullify it through judicial malfeasance reinstating a Felony Conspiracy Charge thrown out by the Higher Court more than a year earlier - also set the start date of the trial to be 3/22/2017. Then on March 1, 2017, Boccabella denied the Defendants highly relevant Appeal with NO EXPLANATION in an absurd ruling that simply read "Denied" forcing the start of a trial on the scheduled date of 3/22/2017 as well as the corrupt OAG, acting in cahoots with the Lower Court, to improperly threaten and lever Curley and Schultz with a Felony Conspiracy Charge, that the Superior Court had thrown out more than a year earlier, in regards to a "Plea Deal" the corrupt PA OAG offered them only days after Boccabella's absurd ruling!

Given that Boccabella's and the corrupt PA OAG's actions are clearly not only FUNDAMENTALLY WRONG UNDER THE LAW, but also a clear violation, and massive abridgment, of Constitutionally GUARANTEED RIGHTS under both the PA and US Constitutions, how on earth do Curley and Schultz not have some form of legal relief regarding the CORRUPT, DEBASED and "BAD FAITH" fashion in which the OAG/Boccabella dealt with them in regards to a plea deal to avoid Felony Charges that the HIGHER COURT, the PA Superior Court (the very court Spanier's Appeal is now going back to), had THROWN OUT MORE THAN A YEAR EARLIER!

How on earth is this not clear "Malicious Prosecution" and "Prosecutorial Misconduct" on the part of both the corrupt OAG and Boccabella if Spanier prevails on his Appeal to the Superior Court regarding a ruling the Superior Court made in JANUARY 2016 more than a year earlier than Boccabella's ABSURD ON ITS FACE ruling of Feb 1, 2017 and Mar 1, 2017 denial of Defendants Feb 15, 2017 Appeal that these SAME FELONY CONSPIRACY CHARGES inexplicably still being pursued by the corrupt PA OAG in DIRECT VIOLATION of the HIGHER Court's Jan 2016 Ruling should be permitted to proceed to trial in the LOWER Court in direct contravention of the HIGHER Court's Ruling more than a year earlier?!?!

How is that not actionable "Malicious Prosecution" and "Prosecutorial Misconduct" in the extreme???

Thank you, good for future reference, which I will rely on occasionally.

Have you noticed that all the "lawyers" who regularly post on here defending their profession... (including the massive number of lawyers whose corrupt "Morality" - i.e., their belief system in regards to "fundamental right & wrong" - and extreme narcissism allow them to rationalize all manner of behavior in the name of "self-interest" and have acted as a "social moral cancer" on our Political, Law Enforcement and Judicial System of Government).... as well as the PA Judicial and Law Enforcement Systems (both of which have become corrupted by self-interested, politicized, morally-corrupt LAWYERS), have no explanation whatsoever regarding these MASSIVE FAILINGS and COMPLETE INJUSTICES of the PA Judicial, Law Enforcement and Political Systems of "Government" run virtually exclusively by MORALLY-CORRUPT LAWYERS which have resulted in the tyranny of the populace via the complete and utter trampling of Citizens supposedly "Guaranteed and Protected" Constitutional Rights (both by the PA and US Constitutions) born of IMMORAL ACTS by the very PUBLIC SERVANT LAWYERS who swear to PROTECT, DEFEND AND UPHOLD THESE FUNDAMENTAL INALIENABLE MORAL RIGHTS? (i.e., "inalienable" in that they were not CREATED by mankind, but are rather "fundamental" to our existence in the universe, and therefore cannot be DISMISSED by any person, but rather ACCRUE to ALL PEOPLE).

IOW, America has become precisely what our Founding Fathers waged their entire existence ON PRINCIPLE to eliminate from this country - UNJUST, IMMORAL TYRANNY perpetrated by morally-corrupt MEN who wish to act as if they are "God" rather than the fundamental belief in "all men being created equal" and "blind justice" (i.e., justice and the law is applied equally to all regardless of who you are). This Country has become "Modern Rome" and is run both Poltically and Industrially by morally-bankrupt -- actually worse, "morally-depraved", principle-less, ethic-less scumbags who no more believe in the Founding Father's Constitution (or Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address) than they believe in the Man on the Moon. They believe in extreme narcissism, self-interest, self-aggrandizing agendas, entitlement and "the ends justify the means regardless of means" to the point of complete moral socio-pathology and beyond). IOW, the very definition of the Creed of the Anti-Christ, Belial, - i.e., the diametric opposite of "The Golden Rule". I was taught something as a youngster in regards to "Morality" - i.e., your belief system in fundamental right and wrong - that I have found to be extremely true in my lifetime: "If you believe in nothing, you will stand for anything; but if you truly believe in something, you will stand on principle.". Again, our Founding Fathers made a pledge to one another of their entire fortunes and existence if necessary ON THE PRINCIPLES espoused in the Constitution - IOW, they stood ON PRINCIPLE to the death if necessary, because they truly believed in these principles. We have become a nation lead by scumbags who "believe in nothing (beyond narcissism) and will stand for anything that benefits that self-interest" - hypocritical, cowardly, self-promoting scumbags, charlatans, thieves and whores who have no sacred principles or beliefs to be "courageous" about and the antithesis of what role-models and "leadership" is all about.

Is that any different than you crying about the BOT 5 years later?

Bob, you may be too young to remember " Carnac the Magnificent"

"Carnac the Magnificent was a recurring comedic role played by Johnny Carson on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. One of Carson's most well-known characters, Carnac was a "mystic from the East" who could psychically "divine" unknown answers to unseen questions."

Still no explanation from the uber sanctimonious lawyers on the board as to how this completely illegal travesty of justice and trampling of the PA Constitution and sacred "Citizen's fundamental Rights" by morally-bankrupt, depraved, scumbag lawyers-turned-politicians, lawyers-turned-"supposed Public Servants" and lawyers-turned-"supposedly-nonpolitical-unbiased-Judges" who swear to protect, venerate and uphold the Constitution could possibly happen - go figure!

And all of them will have their names on a building, except for the place they should be--- scrawled inside a bathroom stall.

Wait until the movie hits. It will start up all over again.

I suspect that it will a hundred times worse. I don't expect the movie to be anything less than a hit job. I also believe that once the initial movie run is over, then the whole episode will begin to fade into the background. It will kick around at a low level of intensity for many years, for sure, but that will be it.

Still no explanation from all the lawyers on the board how a corrupt PA Law Enforcement and Judicial System (all run by lawyers) could trample Curley's and Schultz's fundamental "Constitutionally Protected and Guaranteed Rights" (both by the PA and US Constitutions) and charge them with Felonies in Feb 2017 that the HIGHER COURT had thrown out over a year earlier in Jan 2016???

And then you have @ssholes on this board who say things like they don't understand how they could have accepted a "Plea Deal" to a Misdemeanor, when the CORRUPT JUDICIARY and OAG abused their publicly-granted powers to illegally threaten and lever Curley and Schultz with Felony Charges (and blithely demonstrate their ability to commit such tyranny and injustice without regards to Curley's and Schultz's "supposed" protections against such immoral tyranny as citizens) in explicit VIOLATION of the HIGHER COURT's RULING from a year earlier to shamelessly, immorally and in contravention of the Higher Court's Ruling illicit the "Plea Bargain" result the corrupt OAG desired???

That depends. I'll let you know when my McAndrew post royalties check arrives.

Oh btw, one other piece of information regarding the details above that shows you how utterly morally-debased, unfair and patently corrupt the OAG, Boccabella and "the system" have become.... After the Higher Court threw out multiple frivolous and baseless Felony Charges against C/S&S in Jan 2016, including the Felony Conspiracy Charge absurdly and inexplicably reinstated by Boccabella's Feb 1, 2017 Ruling, the OAG never Appealed the Higher Court's Jan 2016 Ruling (i.e., the PA Superior Court) to the PA Supreme Court (the next and final "Appeal-able" Higher Court) such that the "Appeal Period" of the PA Superior Court's Ruling lapsed (and lapsed by nearly a year relative to Boccabella's patently illegal and without basis REINSTATEMENT of the Felony Corruption Charges in DIRECT CONTRAVENTION of the PA Superior Court's Ruling that the OAG did not Appeal !!!!).

How the PA Superior Court has not stepped in and SANCTIONED both the OAG and Boccabella for what is WELL BEYOND clear "Contempt of Court" in regards to the Higher Court's Ruling, the PA Superior Court, is a complete mystery!
