The quote below is from abovethelaw.com, from a poster responding to http://abovethelaw.com/2011/11/joe-paterno-better-lawyer-up/#disqus_thread a Nov, 10th article. Maybe most everyone else saw this back then, but I missed it.
Take a
look at the attorney/general counsel for Second Mile. Who was the
attorney for Penn State at the time of the first Sandusky incident in
1999. That attorney - Wendall Courtney - he left Penn
State to be counsel for Second Mile. I want to be clear that he left a
nationally ranked university to become general counsel for the charity
of a guy (Sandusky) that Courtney knew was alleged to have raped a 10
year old. BBM
I cannot vouch for truth of the stmt.
But if true, once he was at 2d Mile, what did Wendall do, what steps did he take, who did he notify -- the Bd/Tee's, the ED, etc. re what he knew about Jer?
Wonder what the ethics rules say, about what, if anything, he could lawfully disclose?
Who are Mandated Reporters re suspected child abuse in PA?
A possible clash btwn atty Ethics rules and mandated reporters reqmts?
