When the presentment was made public on Nov. 4, 2011, McQueary was reported as seeing Sandusky engaged in "anal intercourse" with a 10-year-old boy in the shower. But in subsequent testimony, McQueary acknowledged he never clearly saw anal intercourse and only assumed it had occurred based on several quick glances and the sounds he heard.
A previously undisclosed email sent by McQueary to authorities demonstrates he had thought the prosecutors' description in the presentment of what he had seen -- and what he reported to Paterno -- was not accurate.
"I cannot say 1,000 percent sure that it was sodomy," McQueary wrote in the email sent to a prosecutor and investigator on Nov. 10, 2011. "I did not see insertion. ... It was sexual and/or way over the line in my opinion, whatever it was."
In another previously undisclosed matter, The Mag found that one grand juror who heard McQueary testify said he doubted his credibility. The grand juror, Stan Bolton, a 53-year-old employee of The Home Depot in York, Pa., now says he was skeptical of McQueary's claim that Sandusky engaged in a sex act with the boy because McQueary told grand jurors that he didn't see penetration.
"This planted a seed with me. Either you saw it or you didn't," said Bolton, who was one of 23 grand jurors. The prosecutors "kind of glossed over it and moved on to who [McQueary] told, which started the whole Joe Paterno thing."
When the presentment charging Sandusky, Curley and Schultz was released, it was written by the 33rd grand jury. In that document, prosecutors said McQueary, identified only as a graduate assistant, was found by the grand jury to be "extremely credible." However, the 33rd grand jury never heard McQueary testify. An earlier grand jury, the 30th, heard McQueary testify on Dec. 16, 2010. Bolton was a member of that grand jury.
Yes we have!Oh boy, you can almost smell the fear. The alumni trustees must have gotten access to the files.
Yes we have!
The only bad news will be for the disident BOT members when they review Freehs work product and see that he got it right.

Fixed it for you.Listening to that bitch Triponey 300 times does not constitute 300 interviews.
Ms. Triponhertongue had a great deal to say until she was subpoenaed. Then she hid behind her husband, who had to write a note to the teacher for her. She would be a natural sorority sister for Putz Peetz.Fixed it for you.

Anthony, be careful! CR666 warns you not to disclose anything....Yes we have!
I corrected your typo and sincere thanks for the invitation, but I think I'll stay at Troon North in Scottsdale, where I live on the Pinnacle Course. The daily commute for your Swingers parties would be rough. Plus I'd rather deal with our venomous snakes in the grass than having to deal with your version known as Kenny Frazier. Snakes are outliers at our club, obviously not so at yours.Thanks anyways!Oh I so wish you could be a member.
Check out these excerpts directly from THIS ARTICLE:
That is a lot of evidence of prosecutorial misconduct and intentional misrepresentation of facts as even one of the member's of the Initial Grand Jury, the 30th PA SWIGJ, points out![
Information contained in three million documents and gleaned from over three hundred interviews say otherwise. Once the dissident trustees review the work product, ask them if they agree.
Your parents gave birth to a cancer. I imagine they were no better than pond scum, and the apple didn't fall far from the tree.
Isn't that what juries do? Give their opinions on whether someone is guilty or innocent based on the evidence they have? What's the difference?
Link to the audio please.
Sooooooo, since we know you can't give any details of the Freeh review, maybe we should come up with a special BWI scale- to to to .
Oh boy, you can almost smell the fear. The alumni trustees must have gotten access to the files.
Yes we have!
I believe Freeh already disclosed that he did not talk to MM, Dr. Dranov, JM, JVP, TC or GS as they were all under subpoena.
It's clear, since its stated in black and white, that the intent of his statement was to point out the OAG's bullshit fantasy GJP didn't match his testimony and what MM reported to him. At that point the media was already trying to crucify Joe due to the OAG's misrepresentation of Joe/MM's GJ testimony. Speaking through a lawyer was quite prudent if you ask me.
Also as I pointed out in my earlier post Joe's GJ testimony shows the only thing he knew for SURE was that the shower was inappropriate and it made MM upset (this lines up exactly with his written statement). That's it. The other part that you cling too was couched with I dont know what it was, aka speculation.
Any more brain busters Seth?
dementia?6r
That was his intent according to you. However, he stopped short of denying it was sexual in nature. Ask yourself why.
You might be dismayed to know that soon after Van Natta outed Grand Juror Bolton that the OAG went after the man's disabled son, attempting to pin child porn charges on him. Apparently a torrent exchange website was being investigated & Bolton's son's IP address was traced but experts would later submit that his computer was likely hacked & upon meeting the young man it became clear it was highly unlikely he was mentally capable of using the torrent site. Charges were eventually dropped. Bolton is convinced the OAG targeted his son because of the ESPN story.
He also didn't interview these people:
- Karen Arnold
- Steve Sloane (Ray Gricar's best friend, almost certainly involved in the '98 investigation)
- Fran Ganter (mentioned in the mysterious Oct. '98 tape recording).
- Emma Gricar (to whom Ray disclosed information about the '98 incident in enough detail and/or with enough emphasis that she distinctly remembered it 14 years later... interviewing her may have served as proof that Ray Gricar never really "dropped" the matter, and also talked openly with LE and his family about Sandusky. There's also an unconfirmed rumor that Gricar told his nephew Chris about it, and his nephew told friends at PSU. It almost sounds like Gricar knew he didn't have enough to charge him, but he felt he needed to "spread the word" and tell the community to keep an eye on Sandusky).
But again, none of these people were interviewed by Freeh. I feel like with '98 being so important - arguably the real key to the whole "coverup" narrative - you'd want to interview EVERYONE with any knowledge of the incident. But nope, it's almost as if he intentionally avoided certain people whose information might not fit a certain narrative.
Given that Freeh's commission was for PSU's issues, there is at least a fair reason why he would not have interviewed some of those folks. They were outside the scope. Now Fran Ganter is another story as he obviously does have a connection to PSU. He should have been interviewed. Mind you, I think Freeh's work was a bungled joke--at best--and likely directed toward a predetermined conclusion--at worst.
However, Freeh's commission was to find out what went wrong at PSU and give suggestions for fixing it. It was never intended to be a comprehensive investigation of the entire situation.
Now, I'd really like to see the entire thing properly investigated--and by someone with subpoena powers (which Freeh did not have). I hope that happens. We keep hearing about the Feds, for example. I'd love to see some of the stuff mentioned here followed up on. We really might learn something about how to prevent this situation from happening again (though I'm not sure how you spot a person like Sandusky in advance). The Paterno Report was a good step in that direction--but even there, their scope was limited. I don't think they looked at Second Mile much, and of course they did not have subpoena powers either.

dementia?
Dementia is one possibility; there are others.
1. How in the world does Joe KNOW if it was sexual in nature? He didn't see it; he got an account from McQueary. How could he possibly DENY or AFFIRM exactly what the activity was, even if McQueary was very precise and consistent in his account.
2. What are the chances that McQueary was precise and consistent in what he told Joe and others at the time?
3. Even without dementia, what degree of recall is someone EXPECTED to have about a conversation 10 years prior?

It is true that that is how they used it. But it wasn't his commission. But Louie couldn't resist grandstanding.Agree, for the most part, but this part I have to disagree with:
Freeh, the BOT and the NCAA certainly considered it to be a comprehensive investigation of the entire situation. They based ~ $200m in penalties on the conclusions....errrr....opinions in the report.
However, Freeh's commission was to find out what went wrong at PSU and give suggestions for fixing it. It was never intended to be a comprehensive investigation of the entire situation.

Shouldn't the point be that Freeh should have withheld drawing any definitive conclusions until he could have interviewed the principal parties involved?Given that Freeh's commission was for PSU's issues, there is at least a fair reason why he would not have interviewed some of those folks. They were outside the scope. Now Fran Ganter is another story as he obviously does have a connection to PSU. He should have been interviewed.

Good lord CR you really are a complete idiot. Well you certainly have a lot of gall calling me a coward and an idiot. I'm not the one hiding behind a keyboard calling other people names, you are. . Seriously I cannot believe you actually built and sold a business. Well that's because you don't know me. Take a look at who the lawyers were on the Freeh team. Almost none were qualified. So noble of you to pass judgement of even more people you likely don't know or have worked with.
If only a lawyer who spent years and years and years doing this kind of work could get his hands on those files .... Hmmm. Really a shame that a legal technicality will prevent Freeh from being vindicated by everyday common people on a jury. .
Exactly, Roy. It wasn't his to say if it was of a sexual nature or not. What he did say was that MM was distraught (to a point of hysteria) and unclear. One of the things never discussed, was the MM saw what he saw in a mirror. By the time he slammed his locker and turned around, JS and the boy were standing next to each other.
I still say that MM was ambiguous and unclear in discussing things with the half dozen people he talked to in the months following the event. Then, with some encouragement, emboldened his statement with the support of, and to support, all of the other witnesses that later came forward.
Its a good point. And that is why a cross examination is needed. Allowing people to ramble on, without clarification or challenge, isn't a good way to determine facts.We also don't know what Joe's definition of sexual in nature is. Does he view two people standing next to each other/hugging/horsing around naked in the shower as sexual in nature? We have no idea since he wasn't cross examined. This is why it's idiotic to put so much weight on non cross examined GJ testimony where people are answering leading questions from scumbag prosecutors.
Very true. Maybe an outrage scale of through ?
