It takes much courage for a victim of sexual abuse to stand up and go public with the truth. This illustrates that those in power and abusers will fight back and deny allegations. The law is often inadequate to resolve sexual abuse cases that are often decades old.
Newly released documents contain allegations that the former coach knew of abuse long before 1998, the year an independent investigation reported Paterno first became aware of sexual assaults against minors. Testimony also indicates current college football assistant coaches Tom Bradley and Greg Schiano were also aware of Sandusky’s abuse.

Disgusting that so many adults and people in positions of power covered up sexual abuse for years. Those who were powerless and children suffered and still suffer as a result of this monster. Those who played a part in the cover up are also responsible. Shows the legal system helps address some of the problems but those in power continue to try to hide behind weak arguments and the passage of years.
