PSU trustees cite legal question in delaying vote on sanctions
Published: Sunday, August 12, 2012, 7:14 p.m.
Updated 18 minutes ago

Penn State’s Board of Trustees decided not to vote Sunday night on accepting the NCAA’s penalties for the Jerry Sandusky sex-abuse scandal, citing legal issues with the notice provided for the meeting.

Because the meeting, held Sunday via teleconference, did not have the 10 days notice required by the university’s charter, Board Chair Karen Peetz said the board would not hear any motions or take any votes.

Instead, several officials, including University President Rodney Erickson, told trustees how the NCAA had considered even harsher penalties against the university, including multiple years of the “death penalty” for the football program, to be followed by more sanctions once the program resumed.

Trustees said they supported Erickson’s decision.

Alumni and others have urged the trustees to take a formal vote on accepting the sanctions.

Witness: I Saw Sandusky And Penn State Booster Abuse Boys On Private Plane
August 13, 2012

A witness interviewed by federal authorities in the widening Penn State investigation claims he saw Jerry Sandusky and one of the school’s prominent boosters sexually abusing boys on a private plane, RadarOnline.com is reporting exclusively.

The witness was interviewed by the U.S. Postal Inspectors with the FBI present. RadarOnline.com broke the news that a new investigation into a pedophile ring is now being conducted by federal authorities.

And while Postal Inspectors are also trying to determine if Sandusky shared pornography through the mail and sent seductive letters to his victims, the biggest bombshell is the allegation leveled by the witness who was interviewed within the past few weeks.

Middle States Commission issues warning
Monday, August 13, 2012

The Middle States Commission on Higher Education notified Penn State President Rodney Erickson on Aug. 8 that it has issued the University an accreditation warning based on information contained in the Freeh Report and the binding consent decree with the NCAA. The commission also stressed that Penn State’s accreditation remains intact.

"We must be clear about what this warning means so there are no misunderstandings," said Blannie Bowen, vice provost for academic affairs, who also is the University’s accrediting liaison officer. "This action has nothing to do with the quality of education our students receive. Middle States is focusing on governance, integrity and financial issues related to information in the Freeh report and other items related to our current situation."

Erickson said that, "The commission wants us to document that steps we have already taken and are planning to take will ensure our full compliance with its requirements. I am confident that we will provide that documentation by the Sept. 30 deadline Middle States has given us." Further, Erickson said, "We are a University that is fully committed to its core values of honesty, integrity and community. We are a University that will rebuild the trust and confidence that so many people have had in us for so many years."

Middle States is the organization that accredits degree-granting colleges and universities in the Middle States region, which includes Delaware, the District of Columbia, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and several other locations. The commission is requiring Penn State to submit a monitoring report by Sept. 30. The commission is keying in on issues that have followed the conviction of former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky on charges of child abuse and sexual assault, such as University governance and financial stability.

Penn State, Food and Drug Administration investigate finding "foreign objects" in Creamery ice cream
Published: August 13, 2012 Updated 33 minutes ago

UNIVERISTY PARK — Penn State is investigating the discovery of a penny and pieces of plastic in ice cream containers sold at the campus Creamery.

According to a news release from the university, a consumer found a penny in a half-gallon of ice cream purchased at the Berkey Creamery in mid-May. Creamery officials and Penn State police investigated it and thought it was an isolated incident.

However, consumers reported finding pieces of plastic in half-gallon ice cream containers three more times after that.

No one has been injured, according to the university. Officials do not believe the plastic comes from the manufacturing equipment or the production process.

Are you surprised? You have an ice cream named after a Pedophile Enabler!
There's a lot of crazy people out there that are offended by that name. Glad I chose to boycott PSU food!!

Jerry Sandusky case review being done to see if the state should have notified his charity in 2008
Sara Ganim, The Patriot-News
August 13, 2012

The director of Clinton County Children and Youth Services says he has asked the state Department of Welfare to perform a review of how his office handled the Jerry Sandusky case as it relates to Victim One.

Gerald Rosamilia made the request after being questioned by a Patriot-News reporter about why no safety plan was put into place after Victim One -- the Clinton County teen whose allegations eventually led to Sandusky being charged with abusing 10 boys -- first came forward.

State law says that if anyone associated with a child care agency is accused, the agency must be notified and a written safety plan enacted.

Rosamilia told The Patriot-News that he did not believe a safety plan was necessary, since Victim One was no longer in contact with Sandusky and hadn't alleged abuse while participating in activities at Sandusky's charity, The Second Mile. But to be sure, he asked for a review.

The state came to the office last week, but has not given him results, he said.

Sandusky had met Victim One and almost all of his victims through The Second Mile.

A similar lapse was made in 1998, when Sandusky was accused by a different boy -- known as Victim 6 -- who went to police and said he was touched during a shower.

In that case, Jerry Lauro, the DPW investigator, said he would have put a safety plan in place if he felt it was necessary.

Sources close to the charity say no safety plan was implemented in either 1998 or 2008.

Schultz granted access to Freeh materials
August 13, 2012

A judge granted former Senior Vice President Gary Schultz's request Thursday to subpoena materials relating to Judge Louis Freeh’s report.

President Judge Todd Hoover of Dauphin County granted it after Schultz, former Penn State interim senior vice president for finance and business, and his attorney’s filed the request on July 31. They asked to have Freeh’s agency provide Schultz with materials, including emails and notes, prepared by Freeh investigators relating to the investigation of Penn State, according to court documents.

Schultz asked the court to require the firm to provide the materials to him by Sept. 1, according to court documents.
 ::snipping2::
Schultz and Curley both have a hearing at 9 a.m. Thursday at the Dauphin County Courthouse in Harrisburg, but neither are expected to attend. No date has been scheduled for trial in the case yet.

Jerry Sandusky attorney refiles appeal against protective order
August 14, 2012

The process for one of Jerry Sandusky’s defense attorneys to appeal the presiding judge’s protective order to find out who received materials related to the case has begun again.

On Monday, Karl Rominger refiled a document with his reasons for appealing Senior Judge John Cleland’s order two months ago.
 ::snipping2::
At issue is likely a taped interview police had with Sandusky’s adopted son Matt, who alleged his adoptive father abused him years ago. The recording was leaked to NBC and reported during the trial.

Judge Grants Gary Schultz Subpoena Power for Freeh Materials
August 13, 2012

udge Todd Hoover granted former Penn State vice president Gary Schultz the right to subpoena Louis Freeh's firm for materials used in the Freeh report that could help his case.

Attorneys for Schultz were granted subpoena power by Hoover on Monday. In initial documents filed July 31, Schultz asked that the judge help him secure any materials used to compile the 267-page Freeh report, which was made public on July 12.

The material Schultz is seeking was not a part of the discovery material originally granted to him. In court documents, counsel for Schultz said access to Freeh materials are of "vital importance" so that a proper defense can be prepared.
 ::snipping2::
A hearing is scheduled for Schultz and former Penn State athletic director Tim Curley, who faces the same charges, for 9 a.m. Aug. 16 at the Dauphin County Courthouse. Neither man is expected to attend.

No timeline has been set for the trial.

Trustee McCombie Still Pursuing NCAA Appeal, Attorney Says
August 14, 2012

Penn State trustee Ryan McCombie has not withdrawn his appeal of the NCAA sanctions and has no plans to do so, counsel Paul Kelly confirmed Monday.

Kelly, a Boston-based attorney with the firm Jackson Lewis LLP, released the following statement immediately after the Board of Trustees' teleconference wrapped up Sunday evening around 7 p.m.

"If you were listening to the Board of Trustees call this evening, I want to clarify that Mr. McCombie has agreed to temporarily suspend prosecution of the recently filed NCAA appeal to allow the Board proceedings recommended by Mr. (Joel) Myers to occur in a full and deliberate manner. He has not agreed to a withdrawal of the appeal.

"While Trustee McCombie fully supports President Erickson and his commitment to protecting the current and future interests of Penn State University, he still intends to challenge the unfair, unwarranted and unlawful actions of the NCAA and the excessive sanctions imposed."

Kelly, who has been a trial lawyer for more than 30 years and is a member of his firm's Collegiate and Professional Sports Industry Group, also represents the eight former Penn State football players and a former assistant coach who filed an appeal of the NCAA sanctions last week, seeking retribution for the 111 vacated wins, among other alleged wrongdoing.

Currently, there is no timetable regarding court dates, as the appellants wait for the NCAA to act, Kelly said, which could take anywhere from 10 days to two weeks.

Graham Spanier's Attorney Says Press Conference a 'Maybe,' Not Definite
August 14, 2012 12:56 PM


Contrary to earlier reports, counsel to former Penn State President Graham Spanier said there is only a possibility of a press conference next week to discuss errors in the Freeh report.

Peter Vaira, a Philadelphia-based attorney with the firm Vaira & Riley, P.C. said he would not discuss whether Spanier plans to take any legal action against Penn State.

"I'm not going to give any information other than to clarify the error."

Earlier, the AP reported Spanier's attorneys were planning a news conference for early next week in Philadelphia to debunk the Freeh report by pointing out its many errors.

Now, Vaira said he never said that, only that there is the possibility of "something," and no plans have been finalized.

Case for, against Penn State execs
Gary Schultz, Tim Curley won't be in court for hearing that could set up trial

August 14, 2012

Responding to charges of lying to a grand jury in the Jerry Sandusky investigation, former Penn State vice president Gary Schultz and former athletic director Tim Curley will try to convince a judge in Harrisburg, Pa., that there was a major difference between what Mike McQueary saw in the shower and what he told them about it.

The differences in McQueary's descriptions of the now notorious shower incident are so significant, the former university officials and their lawyers assert, that the charges of perjury are "unprovable and unfounded" and must be dismissed.

In more than 300 pages of legal briefs, they suggest that in a meeting 10 days after the incident early in 2001, McQueary gave them the impression that the shower incident was merely "horseplay," was "not that serious," and was at worst "inappropriate."

Jerry Sandusky Writing Second Book In Prison
August 14, 2012

Years before child sex abuse charges were filed against Jerry Sandusky, he wrote a book called “Touched,” a story about his life.

Now, weeks before Sandusky’s sentencing date on 45 child sex abuse charges, sources confirm to 6 News reporter Gary Sinderson that Sandusky is working on a second book while he is incarcerated.
 ::snipping2::
 
Sources told 6 News at first, it was believed Sandusky was writing his version of events that he wants to read at his sentencing.


Now, those sources said Sandusky is apparently working on writing a second book, and doing so with the help of his wife, Dottie.

 
Sources said there has been so much paperwork exchanged between Jerry and Dottie,  that Dottie has had her written correspondence privileges suspended by prison officials.


 ::snipping2::
Legal experts tell 6 News it is unlikely that Sandusky could make any money off of a book written in prison, because convicted felons are barred from profiting from writing about their crimes.

Pennsylvania Eyes Pension Cutoff for Felons Post-Sandusky
August 14, 2012

Pennsylvania should bolster pension- forfeiture rules for public employees, according to Frank Fina, the chief deputy state attorney general who helped convict Jerry Sandusky on child sex-abuse charges.

Public employees only lose taxpayer-funded pensions if they’re convicted of a crime in which they used their office to help commit it under current law. In addition, the victims of school employees must be students and not all of the 68-year-old Sandusky’s victims were, Fina told a state legislative hearing today.

“Given the grave betrayal of the public trust that such criminal conduct represents, it is critically important that this oversight be corrected,” Fina said. Lawmakers convened the meeting to discuss pension-related bills.

'Highly incriminating' evidence: Judge unseals transcript of meeting involving attorneys in Jerry Sandusky trial
August 15, 2012

 Prosecutors in the Jerry Sandusky case had a "great deal" of "highly incriminating" evidence they didn't use at his trial.

That's according to what a prosecutor told the judges overseeing the Sandusky case and the grand jury investigation late in June as they were discussing how secret materials were leaked to the media.

The transcript of the hearing June 26 with Judges John Cleland and Barry Feudale, prosecutors Frank Fina and Joseph E. McGettigan III, and defense attorneys Joe Amendola and Karl Rominger was unsealed this morning by Cleland.

Transcript: Great deal of Jerry Sandusky evidence unused at trial near Penn State
August 15, 2012

A great deal of highly incriminating evidence against Jerry Sandusky was not used during his trial, a prosecutor says in a transcript of a June 26 conference call made public Wednesday.

During a discussion about materials being leaked to the media, Sandusky prosecutor Frank Fina told Judge John Cleland the evidence wasn't used for a variety of reasons, and asked that it be sealed to protect Sandusky and his victims.

"I just don't know how that is in his best interest or anybody's best interest this stuff be publicly disseminated post trial," Fina said, according to the transcript.

Fina said a protective order for the evidence would preserve the integrity of the process, and protect the unnamed victims in the case and the ongoing nature of the investigation.
