A challenge can be brought, citing the state laws, in court. I've seen that done before. Will someone do it in this case? Maybe.

let's not cloud this matter with logic.

They had to release something because state law says incident reports are public record. Because of the right to redact, a lot of times reporters never ask for them and wait for an arrest affidavit or search warrant or anything else that's more likely to give details. But in high-profile stuff like this, people will…

It's the difference between complying with the spirit of the law (we have to release all properly requested public documents) and the letter of the law (but there are enough exceptions in there that we really don't have to release shit if we don't feel like it and put the proper excuse around it).

Yes, coaches lie all the time, and it is a common topic that Deadspin reports on.

First, he said he did. Then, he said he didn't. Unclear. Stupid.

That's fascinating.

Other than the prosecutors who try to convict them, the prisons where we put them after they are convicted, and so on.

Yeah, he never lied! Except for the whole "Franklin testified he initially told football players he saw video of the alleged sexual assault but now confessed that he lied to the team." Lying to the team is still an act of lying and impeaches his credibility on the stand since his story is "sure, I lied to a room…

Why won't people get over that horrible string of crimes that was allowed to continue because of a culture that has not changed? It's been almost three years!

I'm a PSU fan, but this should be higher.

It was a fucking baffling decision to hire him considering the rumors that he was part of a coverup. For a lot of schools, rumors might be rumors, but even the suggestion that he'd done such a thing was the last thing Penn State needed.

"I lied about rape because I thought it would be good for the football team."

Hard to say if he's a better fit at Penn State or if he's trying to show he's ready for the NFL.

Note to self, never hire lawyer named Big Al.

We are Penn State!

"Coach Franklin told former players they "better take this seriously & tell parents b/c this will affect the rest of your lives.""

More rape culture to add to Penn St. Good times ahead!

My avocado saver! Love that thing. Almost as much as I love avocados.

The problem is impossible to solve. We do not know how many of the spies that the separatists send are actually caught by the bounty hunters, so we lack sufficient information.
