his family says no…but probably a matter of time.

But I don’t think he deserved to die. I save that for the creep that was hurting the kids. I think Joe got a lot of the anger a lot of it deserved but some that should have been for Sandusky.

He knew he had a pedofile in his midst, kept him, and gave the impression that it is ok to rape children, just don’t bring it to work with you.
I can’t go so far as to say I think he deserved to die a nasty death. But I just can’t bring myself to feel any remorse for someone who, ultimately, encouraged/allowed future molestations to occur.
I am not going to seek out his grave site to spit on it. But I just can’t feel sorry for the guy.
I haven’t, closely, followed the case, but I feel badly for his family and think it’s sad that things turned out the way they did.

Looking the other way while children get molested is just as bad as doing it in my book.
If Im the getaway driver in a bank robbery and someone inside gets shot, Im still guilty of accessory to murder….joe is an accessory to child molestation and if someone like that dies, im not gonna lose a wink of sleep over it.

I’ve got 4 kids and I kinda felt the same way.
And he lived a very full, long life.

Did he really look the other way? I ask this in earnest because I really don’t know. My understanding is that his knowledge of the incident came to him second hand from an assistant who said he witnessed impropriety. Joe Paternal then passed the claim onto the his superior and the campus police as soon as it was made known to him following university policies.

Looking the other way or doing the bare minimum makes u just as guilty in my book.
