Penn State Scandal: Jerry Sandusky Rumored To Have 'Pimped' Boys To Donors: REPORT

In the frenzied hours after the Penn State Board of Trustees announced that Joe Paterno was being relieved of his duties as football coach effective immediately, students in State College took to the streets in support of the former coach while college football analysts around the country sought to place his fall from grace in perspective.

Several hours earlier, Paterno had issued an independent statement, revealing his own intention to retire after the season. Clearly, the Board of Trustees felt Paterno needed to go sooner for his complicity in -- or, at least, his indifference toward -- the heinous sexual assaults allegedly committed by former Penn State defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky.

With Paterno's career having come to a sudden, inglorious conclusion and Beaver Canyon overrun with students, some whom flipped two television news trucks, it seemed that Penn State had reached its nadir.

Perhaps not.

Shockingly, there are reports that even more depraved details about the sexual crimes allegedly committed by Sandusky will be revealed in the coming days. As the quasi-riots shook the Penn State campus late Wednesday evening and early Thursday morning, SportsByBrooks began tweeting ominous messages about allegations that have yet to become public.

@SPORTSbyBROOKS

SPORTSbyBROOKS If what I was told tonight about the details of the new allegation in Sandusky child sex case is true, it will horrify the public.

@SPORTSbyBROOKS
SPORTSbyBROOKS This is a deadly serious matter. Keep the victims in your thoughts. Cannot emphasize that enough. In your thoughts.

Several hours after these SportsByBrooks tweets, Pittsburgh radio host Mark Madden appeared on The Dennis and Callahan Show on WEEI in Boston and shared what he believes those allegations to be.

"I can give you a rumor and I can give you something I think might happen," Madden said on the radio. "I hear there's a rumor that there will be a more shocking development from the Second Mile Foundation -- and hold on to your stomachs, boys, this is gross, I will use the only language I can -- that Jerry Sandusky and Second Mile were pimping out young boys to rich donors. That was being investigated by two prominent columnists even as I speak."

Madden has been following the Sandusky case long before the former coach's alleged sex crimes against young boys became widely known several days ago. In April, Madden authored an article for the Beaver County Times positing that Sandusky's sex crimes had been swept under the rug by Penn State in the late 1990s in exchange for his quiet resignation.

"The other thing I think that may eventually become uncovered, and I talked about this in my original article back in April, is that I think they'll find out that Jerry Sandusky was told that he had to retire in exchange for a cover-up," said Madden during his Thursday morning radio appearance. "If you look at the timeline, that makes perfect sense, doesn't it?

If the allegations that Madden is making are indeed the same ones foreshadowed by Brooks and they turn out to be true then this entire scandal will continue to metastasize and the firing of Paterno will only be the beginning.

Although Madden's April article appears to have been largely on point regarding the seriousness of Sandusky's alleged crimes and the indifference -- or, worse, complicity -- showed by Penn State personnel, not everyone is willing to immediately accept his latest, and arguably most disturbing, account as he does not cite his sources. Among those taking the moderately-polarizing, sometimes shock jock's story with a grain of salt is Ben Jones. Among the must-follow tweeters throughout the scandal at Penn State, Jones is a college football reporter for BlackShoeDiaries.com.

People have asked me about Mark Madden's article. He's Mark Madden, it's like Glenn Beck broke Watergate.

Ben Jones I'm not saying it isn't true, but if Madden had such a source, why didn't he break the whole story?

I had never heard Joe Paterno speak before, but the interview he gave the TV station made him appear more like a mafia don than a coach or university leader. And that makes me suspicious that he's the very one responsible for DA's disappearing and judges recusing themselves and death threats against ALL the witnesses, and intimidation which caused so many institutions to FAIL. Why exactly would the Catholic Church protect, promote, and even revere, such people in the first place we may never grasp.

"In all, five percent (5%) of students (8% of students who ever had sexual intercourse in their lifetime) could be considered sexual minority youth; that is, they either identified as gay, lesbian, or bisexual and/or reported any same-sex sexual contact"

"Self-defined sexual orientation and sexual behavior did not always match. More than half( 53%) of students who identified as gay, lesbian, or bisexual had never had any same-sex sexual contact. More than half (55%) of students who had same-sex sexual contact identified as heterosexual, and an additional 8% identified themselves as �not sure� of their sexual orientation"

Of the 2% of boys who "identified" as gay or had gay sex:
1. 37% identified as gay (0.74% of total)

2. 63% who had gay sex did NOT identify as gay (1.26% of total).

3. 53% who "identified" as gay had never had gay sex (0.4% of total).

4. 47% who "identified" as gay DID have gay sex (0.35% of total).

5. 4% of ALL boys DID have gay sex.

6. Thus, 3.65% of the boys who had gay sex DID NOT "IDENTIFY AS GAY"!

These are children. This is called rape. If this applies to all 8 million high school age boys in this country, then 292 thousand of them have been raped, and this Sandusky case is the very tip of the ice berg.

Rings somewhat familiar to a story in 1989 about the Catholic Boys Town scandal, in Omaha, Nebraska, involving Lawrence King mgr. of Franklin Credit Union. I hope to God this is not true about Sandusky pimping out boys, but it wouldn't suprise me much if it turns out to be true.

If it is confirmed that Sandusky retired at 55 as part of a cover up ... the fury unleashed will be unimaginable. I say show no mercy and get them ALL!

Agreed. Anyone implicated needs to be investigated by a team independent of the system and the town. And heads need to roll, in a figurative way.

Found this article from kind of an unlikely source that talks about pedophilia and the patterns that develope in organizations where adults have "ultimate authority" over children. Proves the point that abuse is like roaches. The one you catch means there's a whole lot more you haven't found out about yet. http://foreplayformen.net/reader-letter-penn-state-pedo-bear/

So lets cheer for the gay population.....The media is not connecting the dots in this case.

Pure hogwash...statistics prove 90 percent of pedophiles are not gay. research before you espouse such heinous garbage! And, no I'm not gay and it wouldn't matter if I was...you are a fool for writing something that is as unbelieveble as this crime. You put your foot in your mouth and it has dog crap on it!

If the contributions were large, as a result of Sandusky's activities no wonder PSU kept quiet! The old addage, Money talks, works in the Good Ole Boy Society!

"I have no idea what point you are trying to make in your last paragraph. MOST people (including the dreaded homosexuals) would like to do bad things to priests who molest."

Legalizing gay marriage, as the six states with the highest percentage of Catholics have, is hardly the way to "do bad things to priests who molest". I would say that the other 33 mostly Protestant states which passed DOMA laws to outlaw them are on the right path.

Can you even imagine how difficult it is for them to grasp the moral turpitude which led to this mess in Penn State, or of those who complain about the firings of key figures?

Where is the follow-up to this "scoop?" Is there any? Sounds totally, sickly plausible.... but curious that we have heard nothing else on this? Should not some reporter follow up on these claims... that were to be confirmed or elaborated upon 5 days ago???

How can it be explained that Sandusky denies he's a pedophile in the same PARAGRAPH he can't even answer the question about whether he finds boys sexually stimulating?

Even if the Penn State administrators DID notify the police and the DA, the simple fact that they never bothered to even ASK this question, which PROVED the point, makes them MORE guilty than Sandusky.

This is garbage journalism. Don't take people into fantasy land about sexual assault--that's the whole problem in the first place. Stay in reality and deal with it. Pretending it is worse than it was is almost as bad as pretending it didn't happen. This encourages people to think that all sex assault accusations are fantasy. Journalism should be about truth, not rumor. Sure, the truth could be worse than we know so far, but show some journalistic judgment until more is known.

If even a tiny bit of this is true I predict Sandusky will have a convenient "heart attack".

America has been so full of its self without reason. Wake up, the underbelly of this country is a sesspool---even in places you'd least expect it. Arrrogance breed this.

Pull your head out of your sandbox. America and many other countries are cesspools for targeting children, selling them for porn, kidnapping them and using them as sex slaves. This same scenario that has happened at Penn State happened in Omaha, Nebraska in 1989, involving a Catholic home for boys called "Boys Town", Franklin Credit Union and Lawrence King who pimped out boys all the way to the whitehouse.

The whole truth needs to come out! Is the real story about Penn State yet to come out? How rampant in sports is pedophilia among coaches? Maybe it isn't just Penn State that covers up?
