During the Penn State child rape scandal, Jerry Sandusky had been accused of having sexual relations by force with athletes at the college. Further documentation shows that Sandusky had not only one sexual relations with a student; but with “10 boys in a period of 15 years. “(Huffington Post) The classification of crimes that Jerry Sandusky committed is legally defined as “mala in se.” During the first apparent observation of abuse occurring at the school, Michael McQueary, a former assistant coach for Penn State, reported the descry to Joe Paterno; whom then reported the accusation to school officials.

Therefore, corpus delicti was not provided in the case therefore the defendant’s charge of PCSA was lowered to ASCA. Holding & Analysis “The State need not present independent evidence corroborating every element of the charged offense before a defendant’s statement may be used to prove the corpus delicti; and a predatory-criminal-sexual-assault defendant’s confession to penetration was properly admitted even though the victim had stated only that he touched her private

Sandusky was found guilty on 45 criminal counts on June 22, 2012. On June 30, 2012, McQueary’s contract as the receiver’s coach ended and he was notified that it would not be renewed. Even up until 2016 this case is continuing to be dealt with in the manner of Curley and Schultz. There have even been allegations made stating that Joe Paterno knew that Sandusky was involved in sexual acts with young boys the entire time. Sandusky has filed several appeals which have all been denied to this date.

On November 4, 2011, Jerry Sandusky, former defensive coordinator for Penn State, was accused of sexually abusing eight children during his time at Penn State. More news followed saying that officials at Penn State knew about the incidents, but failed to report any of it to law enforcement. Jerry Sandusky was with Penn State for a total of 32 years. In that time, his actions outside of football didn’t go completely unnoticed. In 1998, an 11-year-old boy told his mother that Sandusky showered with him and may have engaged in some inappropriate contact.

PROS: The pros of the Louisville scandal were very hard to identify. Being that the scandal was very much the hot topic and caused more bad than good, there are not many pros of this scandal. One pro that I found while reading up on the Louisville Scandal was that it brought the team, school and also the coaches many opportunities of fame and attention. During this time of attention, there was a book published called ‘breaking cardinal rules: Basketball and the Escort Queen.’

In 1998, a mother reported that Sandusky had showered with her son in one of the buildings on campus, which was quietly swept under the rug (Crandall, et al., 2014). In 2001, a football assistant, Mike McQueary witnessed a sexual encounter between Sandusky and a 10 year old boy and reported it to Coach Paterno (Crandall, et al., 2014). Paterno went to the group of four men who were made aware of the situation in 1998 and together, they confronted Paterno (Crandall, et al., 2014). Instead of reporting him to authorities, they told him to refrain from bringing young men to the facilities and informed the director of Sandusky’s charitable organization as well (Crandall, et al., 2014). When President Spanier next met with the board of trustees, he intentionally withheld the information regarding Sandusky’s actions (Crandall, et al.,

Jerry Sandusky, assistant football coach for Penn State by all outward appearances seemed to be an outstanding citizen who worked with the legendary Joe Paterno and founded The Second Mile, which was a charitable organization that helped disadvantaged youth. Unfortunately, for the children, Jerry Sandusky was also a serial child rapist. Another tragedy is that although you would think if anyone knew of the abuse, they would have helped these children, in this case, people in high places knew of the abuse and did nothing. Some of the most powerful people, which included President Graham B. Spanier, Senior Vice President-Finance and Business Gary C. Schultz, Athletic Director Timothy M. Curley and the Head Football Coach Joseph V. Paterno, at

Grace Casaschi Mrs. Rugon Honors English 9, Period 1 24 September 2014 Joe Paterno, a Modern Day Oidipous In Greek tragedies, the main character has a tragic flaw that brings them to their defeat. For both Oidipous and old Penn State coach Joe Paterno, that tragic flaw is hubris. They put themselves above everyone else, and were blinded by their fame. The tragedy of Joe Paterno’s fall is similar to Oidipous in that both men are cursed with arrogance.

Famous people have more rumors spread throughout society and the internet about them than ordinary people. The most rumored target is presidential candidates. “The Anatomy of a Smear Campaign” by Richard H. Davis follows John McCain’s campaign for president in the 2000 primary election. Another article regarding John McCain and the 2000 primary election is “How to Fight A Rumor” by Jesse Signal which entails the best way to fight against rumors in the public spotlight. In “How to Fight A Rumor,” the best way to fight a rumor was to not fight against it verbally in case one says the wrong thing, but to immediately create a factual platform to show the truth.

Gregory Johnson was a student at Lincoln Christian College (LCC) from September 1976 to March 1981. He was enrolled in a five-year program to prepare him for a career teaching sacred music. Johnson has completed all of his course requirements and fully paid his tuition for each year; however, LCC has repeatedly refused to grant Johnson his diploma based on a charge that Johnson might be homosexual which arose during Johnson's last semester at LCC when, Linda Heppner, another student told Thomas Ewald, LCC's dean of students, that Johnson might be homosexual.

Mary Ellen Kimble v. The Worth County R-III Board of Education In this scenario, I feel that the school’s success was highly dependent on their ability to provide “competent and substantial evidence” of Ms. Kimble’s “immoral conduct”(Mary Ellen Kimble v. The Worth County R-III Board of Education, p. 2).On three separate instances, Kimbell was found guilty of “untruthfulness and taking property not her own without consent or permission”(Mary Ellen Kimble v. The Worth County R-III Board of Education, p.7).
