"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing" -- Edmund Burke
What if...
The GA who witnessed the attack (or his father)had made even an anonymous phone call to Child Protective Services over what he saw at least to shine a light on Sandusky?
JoePa had practiced what he preached and "done the right thing" and insisted that Curly and Schultz and Granier report the incident to CPS, at the very least?
Yes, the program and JoePa would likely have taken a hit and he maybe even would have had to resign, but at least he would be able to look in the mirror and not feel like the biggest hypocrite ever.
Remember, this was all taking place when the abuse in the Catholic Church was heavily covered in the media. It's likely that McQueary wanted his dream job (and his witness of the crime assured that as long as he kept quiet. JoePa couldn't stand to think of losing his venerated demi-god status and the "administration" didn't want the monetary liability of a huge settlement to even one victim.
Personally, I think this thing goes a whole lot deeper than what we know so far. It all stinks the high heavens, even the coincidence of the missing DA.
