Via USA Today:
1. Penn State officials Tim Curley and Gary Schultz have been ordered to stand trial.
District Judge William Wenner ruled that prosecutors had probable cause to send the case against Tim Curley and Gary Schultz to trial.
Wenner heard testimony against Curley and Schultz on charges they lied to a grand jury and didnโt properly report an allegation that former assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky sexually abused a boy in a locker room shower in 2002.
Their lawyers maintain the men are innocent, and contest testimony that they were told about the seriousness of the matter.
2. As much as Coach McQueery wanted his former teammates to believe he did something to stop the alleged assault by Sandusky on the boy, his testimony today confirms that he did nothing:
McQueary said Friday that he heard โrhythmic slapping soundsโ in a locker room shower and saw Jerry Sandusky with his arms wrapped around a child.
โI believe they were having some kind of intercourse,โ McQueary said as his mother sat in the courtroom on the verge of tears.
McQueary said he moved toward the shower and Sandusky separated from the boy.
โI know they saw me,โ he said. โThey looked directly in my eye, both of them.โ
McQueary said he then left.
And 3. When McQueery told Coach Paterno, he didnโt give him the gory details:
At Paternoโs house the next day, sitting at his kitchen table, McQueary said he described what he saw and that he told Paterno that Sandusky was in a โsexualโ act with the child and described it as โextremely sexual.โ
McQueary said he did not give Paterno explicit details of what he believed heโd seen, saying he wouldnโt have used terms like sodomy or anal intercourse out of respect for the longtime coach. He described it as โrough positioningโ of Sandusky and the boy.
