Alleged e-mails: What role did Paterno play in the Sandusky cover-up?

One of the newly revealed alleged e-mails appears to show Paterno had another, previously undisclosed conversation with Curley about the shower incident.

On February 26, Penn State’s vice president told Curley, the athletic director, to contact Sandusky, alert child welfare authorities and inform Second Mile, the charity Sandusky founded for disadvantaged children, a purported e-mail says.

After Curley spoke with Paterno, however, the athletic director allegedly told the school president that he had changed his mind about the best course to pursue.

“After giving it more thought and talking it over with Joe yesterday — I am uncomfortable with what we agreed were the next steps,” he purportedly wrote the following day.
