A second e-mail sent by coach Mike McQueary has surfaced in the Allentown Morning Call. In this Nov. 8 e-mail, McQueary says he did stop the alleged attack on a young boy by Jerry Sandusky, and that he discussed the matter with police.
"I did stop it, not physically, but made sure it was stopped when I left that locker room."
....[I] did have discussions with police and with the official at the university in charge of police.
Neither the Penn State police nor the Pennsylvania State Police have responded to requests for information from the paper about the e-mail.
I wonder how many careers will be ruined before this case is over.
