Jerry Sandusky: ‘It’s a sad day!’

Somehow, this doesn't surprise me.

Jerry Sandusky: ‘It’s a sad day!’
Posted by John Taylor on January 22, 2012, 3:14 PM EST

-snip-

In a statement released through his attorney, Sandusky praised his former boss for “maintain(ing) a high standard” and “practic(ing) what he preached.” Of course, there was nary a mention of how his alleged abhorrent behavior was the overriding factor in Paterno’s demise as a football coach.

Anyway, here’s the statement. Do with it as you wish:

“This is a sad day! Our family, Dottie and I would like to convey our deepest sympathy to Sue and her family. Nobody will be able to take away the memories we all shared of a great man, his family, and all the wonderful people who were a part of his life.

“He maintained a high standard in a very difficult profession. Joe preached toughness, hard work and clean competition. Most importantly, he had the courage to practice what he preached.”

Nobody but YOU, you ruinous piece of garbage!

YOU'RE the reason why HE DIED IN DISGRACE! Even if you're COMPLETELY innocent of serial pedophilia, the least you can do is express a LITTLE remorse!

he allowed an adult to show nude with children.

Has Sandusky yet shown any remorse? Has harmed children, his co workers, his department, his university, his own family.....
