I was surprised that Spanier had the lowest amount, and Curley the most. It sounded like the judge fired broadsides at everyone.
Well, his attorney cried him a river and then there were all those "letters" from other University Presidents. Yuk.

I didn't see any from other presidents, a lot of people that he worked with.
Well, that is weird. I went back and clicked on the article I posted today and it's a completely different one.
Didn't read anything about the attorney or letters submitted on his behalf in this latest article.

There was one, which included local attorney Amos Goodall*, whose partner is representing Spanier in his civil suit, and former state senator and current PSU Trustee Bob Jubilier. One was a fellow member of his Dixieland Band (I guess Spanier will singing the blues now), one was a childhood friend and one worked with him in national security. No college presidents that I saw.
*Yes the same guy that handled the case of declaring Ray Gricar dead and whose former law partner was Leslie Dutchcott who did the Sandusky arrainment.
I haven't checked in on the Gricar
Case lately. Anything new?

It depends by what you mean by "lately."
The current thread has a number of timelines on it. There are a few things on them that were previously unreported, but they are in the nature of details.

I did mention Sloane's message here a few pages ago regarding the 1998 case (message #247).
Both of these cases intersect, but I do not think Gricar's disappearance is related to Sandusky. When I started looking at Gricar, first posting something on it on the CDT in 2005, Happy Valley was an idyllic place and a missing DA was a shock. Now it is CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA GOTHIC, a total horror story.

Here is a list of the people that provided letters pleading for Spanier: http://www.dauphincounty.org/govern...Sentencing on Behalf of Graham B. Spanier.pdf
Only one, a dean under Spanier, was an academic.

Spanier just lost his appeal: Ex-Penn State President Graham Spanier should report to jail after losing latest appeal, prosecutors say
He could appeal to SCOTUS, but they do not have to hear the case. Prosecutors are pushing to have him jailed.

As well he should be. (Jailed that is).
