In terms of actual facts, Paterno was only notified one time of problems with Sandusky's conduct and he related those to management. It would have been inappropriate and wrong for Paterno to have done anything other than what he did as he was not a trained child molestation investigator and, in any event, the only this he had was hearsay evidence.
It is ridiculous to suggest that Paterno should have been omniscient as regards what employees or former employees were doing on their own time or, for that matter, what was going on in the Penn State athletic department facilities.
Whether the school makes settlements for years past does not imply that people would have been dead over four years are somehow culpable. That is absurd.
