If I may interject with kiddiefiddling, US style - Jeffrey Sandusky was recently arrested for, among other things, sexual assault of a child. Sadly, this isn't all that noteworthy, except for the fact that Jeffrey is the adopted son of Jerry Sandusky. Jerry was an assistant (US) football coach for Joe Paterno at Penn State University. Several years ago, it was found out that Jerry was raping and sexually abusing boys on campus, and that Joe Paterno and several other in the administration actively covered the incidents up over the course of several years. More recently, transcripts from the trials were released to the public, where it was found out that Paterno likely knew that Sandusky was molesting young boys as long ago as the late seventies. After initial sanctions by the NCAA, the Pennsylvania state legislature sued the NCAA and many of the sanctions were lifted.
What Joe could have prevented had he actually had the spine to do something.
