McQueary: Believed he witnessed molestation

Penn State’s assistant football coach, Mike McQueary told a court he believes he witnessed a young boy being molested in 2002. Testifying at the trial of former Penn State officials, McQueary added that he was not explicit in his report to former coach Joe Paterno. He told the court he didn’t use a term like ‘sodomy’ when telling the coach about what he saw. Paterno was eventually fired for not calling the police. The coach is said, however, to have reported what he was told to current defendant Gary Schultz, who was in charge of campus police.



          Witless Witness?

McQueary told a different tale
When he appeared before the judge
When questioned, under oath this time,
He had a tendency to fudge.
Says he never mentioned “sodomy”
When talking to Paterno.
Could it be the coach was wronged
When thrown to the inferno?
Was removal from his situation
A case or premature ejaculation?
