Reply #4: I would imagine that finally making the pedophile case at Penn State

will give a lot of people courage to come forward in similar places and situations, like the church scandal did - in that case, it spread across nations.

I would not be surprised at all to see others come forward as well.

And the institutions have to respond to these complaints now because they have no choice. They can't try to protect the institution - not that that would be everyone's response, but this moment takes away the value of doing so.
