How Penn State should do right by victims, not Paterno
The release of the Freeh Report on July 12 was another small victory for the victims of Jerry Sandusky, but a gut-punching blow to the blue and white fan boys and girls across the country. Revealed in the 267-page independent investigation by former FBI director Louis Freeh was a comprehensive account of Penn State’s severe mishandling of Jerry Sandusky and the deplorable accusations against him. Freeh deep-seated what many speculated Joe Paterno took with him to his grave. Paterno was, in fact, aware of the Sandusky accusations, and part of the internal blunder to handle it, as early as 1998. Now the soil around Paterno’s grave is burdensome.

Patch Regional Editor Melissa Treacy examines her love for her alma mater in the face of the recent scandal.

Child abuse charges connected to Penn State officials that surfaced over the weekend have local alumni talking.
Charges filed Saturday after a grand jury investigation have caused two top Penn State officials to step down from their positions and sent a whirlwind of discussion throughout the alumni community and the nation at large. "I was shocked and saddened by the revelations that came to light this past weekend," said Jennifer O'Meara, a 2007 graduate who lives in Holland. "We pride ourselves on our tradition and honor, and I can tell you Penn State faithful are reeling from these allegations and feel betrayed by the very people that spoke so highly of 'Success with Honor' and 'May No Act of Ours Bring Shame.'" Gerald (Jerry) Sandusky, 67, was arrested Saturday after being arraigned on 40 criminal counts of sexual abuse. He was released on $100,…
