Accessory After the Fact to Pedophilia....

Right under Murder, I put Pedophilia and Rape. In many ways, it's worse.

If Messrs. Spanier, Schultz, and Curley aren't charged, it's a travesty of justice.

Now. What was Gov. Tom Corbett's role in this?

And instead bought into this 'We must not sully the name of Penn State' mentality.

If he had actually done investigation into this travesty - interviewed those closest to Sandusky, he would have had the evidence to prosecute back in 2008. Instead Corbett felt being governor of Pennsylvania was more important.

Penn State,Pedophile Priest and Jehovah's Witnesses molestation unholy trinity big news same week.
Jehovah's Witnesses hit with $28 million sex abuse settlement Oakland,Calif.-Google it.

Many court documents and news events prove that Jehovah Witnesses require two witnesses when a child comes forward with allegations of molestation within the congregation.
It has also been shown that child molesters within the organization usually have not been identified to the congregation members or the public at large.
These people engage in a door to door ministry, possibly exposing children to pedophiles.
The Watchtower corporation has paid out millions in settlement money already.
