Mike McQueary - Reality Challenged?

by Barry Bozeman   LINK to SMSS post 

Slogging through the Mike McQueary testimony and the cross-examination of Karl Rominger is tedious going.  I can't quite decide which is worse - McQueary's obfuscation and sometimes obvious evasion - pretending he doesn't understand the question OR Rominger's bizarre seemingly purposeful ineptitude and lack of focus. 

Dr. Dranov's Sandusky Trial Transcript

THE TESTIMONY OF DR. JOHNATHAN DRANOV in Transcript is now Available 
LINK to this post on SMSS 

We can now see word for word what Dr Dranov said that convinced the jury to find Sandusky not guilty on the prosecutions claim that Mike McQueary SAW a boy being subjected to anal intercourse and told that to Joe, Tim and Gary.

Mike McQueary heard sounds "of a sexual nature" SOUNDS!!!!

Mike McQueary was asked three times by his doctor - if he SAW anything Sexual "I kept saying what did you see and he kept coming back to the Sounds"

Mike McQueary - Changing Testimony hurt JoePa

To my knowledge, never has so much damage been created, and punishment been levied, with so little evidence or even due process. Of the many absolutely incredible aspects of the Jerry Sandusky scandal, clearly the most underrated is that the direct connection to PSU hangs on the remarkably tenuous story of one man and about four words badgered out of an 84yearold coach trying not harm the prosecution’s case. 

2001 Freeh Framing - Strange Evidence & Fiction

Kelly Links Curley & Schultz to Jerry

By Barry Bozeman   LINK to this post on SMSS             When Linda Kelly stood before the public on Nov 7 with pictures of Tim Curley and Gary Schultz beside Jerry Sandusky and read the horrific charges against one and perjury charges against the other's you may not have decided that Tim and Gary were guilty of perjury.. But that made it easy for Louis Freeh to further prejudice us with his report saying Schultz tried to hide a "secret file" or leaking email that supposedly supported the claims of the prosecution. 

2004/04 Messageboard Chat Gives Investigators More McQueary Questions

by Barry Bozeman        LINK to this post on SMSS 

A Penn State message board member has given the Screen names and names of some of Mike McQueary's friends and acquaintances to the Curley/Schultz Attorneys investigative team. These investigators have confirmed information that gives us even more doubt about Attorney General Kelly's use of Mike McQueary as the most "Credible Witness". Statements were made in chats about the 2001 locker room visit by McQueary that resulted in the current situation at PSU. 

CHARLATAN VICTIMS : "VICTIM" TWO?

HOW QUICKLY THINGS CHANGE - we are reminded that there is much more to come.
by Barry Bozeman  LINK to this post on SMSS 
This story is likely to destroy the last shred of credibility that Mike McQueary had for his Feb 2001 story. MIke already destroyed his own accounts by all the variations in his story. See a fairly complete accounting of his changing story HERE - LINK,  The only remaining thing Mike had going for his story was the idea that Victim 2 was actually abused that night even if Mike never saw it.. Now it appears that not only was he not abused but he isn't victim 2. 

Shortly after the end of the Jerry Sandusky Trial we were greeted by a plethora of articles stating Victim 2 in JerrySandusky case comes forward, plans to sue Penn State

These articles were accompanied by what was termed "Chilling Phone Calls" that in reality appear to be anything but chilling:

2 Second McQueary Visualizations: Who's Responsible for the Damage to PSU & JVP?
by Barry Bozeman    LINK to this post on SMSS 

This should be interesting. When you really get into actual testimony the idea that Joe, Tim, Gary or Dr. Spanier should be blamed for not dealing correctly with Mike's 2001 2 second visualizations may seem silly. The fact that Penn State and these men are being dragged through the mud over a decade old decision because of what a shocked assistant coach 'might have said about 2 second glances is just plain crazy.

McQueary Testimony - Known Facts & My Opinion

STORY OF McQUEARY TESTIMONIES ACCORDING TO KNOWN FACTS

by Barry Bozeman  LINK to this post on SMSS 

To my PSU friends: In the ongoing discussion of the culpability of AD Curley and VP Schultz it seems as if two camps have developed. This constitutes my complete argument on behalf of the beleaguered AD and VP and thus PSU based on as much evidence as is available.
Perhaps the major difference is generational in our initial reaction to the idea of man and boy in shower. Perhaps we differ in our opinion of the competence of police over university administrators. But this is a serious defense of PSU in the person of it's administrators and the reasonableness of assuming that JS should have been stopped in 2001.

McQueary Testimony - Major Change

McQueary Testimony Changes - Moves 13 Months Forward in Time
by Barry Bozeman  Link to this post on SMSS 

This could really change everything for PSU in the Sandusky case. and this should truly concern all PSU alumni, students, and supporters. Court paperwork filed Monday, by prosecutors says the alleged sexual incident McQueary claims to have seen between Sandusky and a young boy in a locker room shower didn’t actually happen the Friday before spring break in 2002. It happened Feb. 9, 2001, about 13 months earlier. This puts at least part of the case beyond the statute of limitations.

The Rhythm of Reasonable Doubt

How do you get RHYTHM from 3 claps Mike McQueary?   LINK to this post on SMSS
by Barry Bozeman

Rhythm Method?

How about an over the top take on the rhythm of the Grand Jury Presentment while we celebrate the new year? Because It seems so strange that Joe Paterno would be in this current predicament because of a couple of 2 second glances and the "Rhythmic Slapping Sounds that led Mike McQueary to suspect sexual activity"? I am not trying to make light of the clever, evil, and devious Sandusky and the horror of his sick actions.
I believe the Attorney General and the Governor have a lot of explaining to do as it turns out. Joe and the good people of Penn State have paid the price for the misleading false statements in the Grand Jury presentment authored by the Attorney General's office. Her press release was another study in totally misleading overstatement and we haven't even gotten to that absurdity but we will. But this week I've Got RHYTHM to discuss.

AG Kelly Manufactures a "PENN STATE SEX SCANDAL"

ATTY. GENERAL LINDA KELLY Manufactures the "PENN STATE SEX SCANDAL"

Kelly makes it about PSU

My most concise overview based on all available evidence after the Perjury Hearing on Friday Dec 16th - an attempt to boil down my obese verbiage into it's basic essence. Toss out everything else I've written - this is the whole story in as small a nutshell as I can make it - from the outsider in Tennessee. There is NO PSU Sex Scandal.

If the Grand Jury Presentment had simply accurately described Mike McQueary's testimony as "strong suspicion of sexual activity based on a brief glance in the shower and some slapping sounds" do you think Joe and PSU would have suffered this vilification? That is the first question you need to answer.

Weak and Contradictory McQueary Testimony

by Barry Bozeman   LINK to this post on SMSS 

Herein are images of the Perjury Hearing Testimony Transcript of Mike McQueary under oath. These are offered so no mistake or misquote can be made to alter the impact of the testimony. The Q & A is done by Mr Beemer for the prosecution, Ms Roberto for Tim Curley, and Mr Farrell for Mr Schultz. I have taken the time to give you key parts of the 250 page testimony if you don't have the time to read the whole thing.

In my view Mike McQueary makes a terrible witness for the prosecution against both Mr. Sandusky and Mssrs. Curley and Schultz. His beliefs are strong but his actual observations do not merit his beliefs.

Attorney General Kelly - Words and Motives

Kelly Links JS to Curly & Schultz 

by Barry Bozeman - LINK to this on SMSS

I find the Attorney Generals website featuring the Attorney General's Press Release on the Sandusky case is a study in misrepresentation of facts and truth.
We should blame this misrepresentation on an overzealous prosecutor in charge of the Grand Jury investigation for the language in the Grand Jury Presentment that was laughably wide of the mark in it's misleading description of the testimony of Mike McQueary. The Press Release by Attorney General Linda Harris leaves no doubt that the intentionally distorted Finding of Fact in the Presentment was a product of the woman in charge.

Dr. Dranov and The Perjury Trap

LINK to this post on SMSS

This Sunday morning I am very happy for my new friends here at BSD and PSU. The probability that the entire Victim 2 March 1, 2002 incident is much like what I've speculated in two earlier fan posts seems very close to a reality. If this is true Joe Paterno and PSU will be totally vindicated and a lot of stone throwers will be wearing their morning eggs as a facial mask.

Mike McQueary - Many Questions, No Easy Answers

LINK to this post on SMSS 
It is interesting to see the people who have such superior moral character when compared to Joe Paterno, Tim Curley and Gary Schultz. Those mostly anonymous comment givers, media members, and letter writers who seem so certain of their ability to have made a difference in the days following March 1, 2002. How did 3 men of such weak character rise to such positions of responsibility at Penn State? I am struck by what I see as a common thread in the comments of those who write to scold or condemn Joe Paterno, or Curley or Schultz or all three. They seem to have an unshakable moral compass that tells them what they would have done that these three men failed to do some 9 years ago.

Victim 2 - Pretense of Perjury - Perjury Trap

LINK to this post on SMSS

Use Occam's Razor and decide for yourself the most likely truth but don't rush to judge based on the little we know about the events of March 1, 2002 and their aftermath. Remember that Joe Paterno, Tim Curley and Gary Schultz along with Mike McQueary had no 40 count report in advance of their involvement in these events. I hope my continued interest in following and trying to dissect this situation as an outsider does not cause any concern here on BSD. The deeper I get into this the angrier I get at the treatment of Paterno and Penn State at the hands of the Mark May's, Gregg Doyle's, ESPN and the rest.

FIRST POST - A VIEW FROM THE OUTSIDE

First ever post on the situation in Nov 2011 - Barry Bozeman

I am a 65 year old Tennessee graduate and fan who's only ties to Pennsylvania was a year spent in Sayer, Pa in 2002. My father was a Judge and political figure in Tennessee and I attended law school there for a time. Dad was a past president of the UT Alumni Association and I know something about the love of a university and it's football program. I know first hand how those institutions can sometimes protect themselves to the detriment of others but I do not believe that is what was happening in State College in the wake of Jerry Sandusky
Perhaps some people can dismiss those who object to what is being touted in the national press from PSU alumni and students as misplaced loyalty but they can't dismiss it from an outsider on those terms. I have no ties or particular love for PSU or JoePa. But I am appalled at the knee jerk reactions of much of the media and political figures who have created a rush to judgment of Mike McQueary and Joe Paterno and the good people at PSU.
I will tell you why after the jump.
