McQueary: I Believe I Saw Sandusky Molesting Boy

A Penn State assistant football coach testified Friday
that he believes he saw former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky sexually
molesting a boy but said he wasn't 100 percent sure it was intercourse.

Mike McQueary, speaking for the first time
in public about the 2002 encounter, said he truly believes what he saw
in a Penn State locker room was intercourse.


McQueary took the stand Friday in a Pennsylvania courtroom during a preliminary hearing for two school officials accused of lying to a grand jury about the child sex-abuse allegations against Sandusky.

McQueary said he saw Sandusky was behind a
boy he estimated to be 10 or 12 years old, with his hands wrapped around
the boy's waist. He said the boy was facing a wall, with his hands on
it.

He said he peeked into the shower several
times and that the last time he looked in, Sandusky and the boy had
separated. He said he didn't say anything, but "I know they saw me. They
looked directly in my eye, both of them."


McQueary said he reported what he saw to coach Joe Paterno.


He said he did not give Paterno explicit
details of what he believed he'd seen, saying he wouldn't have used
terms like sodomy or anal intercourse out of respect for the longtime
coach.
He said Paterno told him he'd "done the
right thing" by reporting what he saw. The head coach appeared shocked
and saddened and slumped back in his chair, McQueary said.


Paterno told McQueary he would talk to others about what he'd reported.


McQueary told a grand jury that he told the
administrators, Tim Curley and Gary Schultz, that he saw Sandusky
sodomize a boy in a locker room shower in 2002.


Curley and Schultz are charged with lying to
a grand jury and failing to properly report what McQueary allegedly
told them. Their lawyers say the men are innocent and contest McQueary's
statements


District Judge William C. Wenner was hearing
testimony Friday to help him decide whether state prosecutors have
enough evidence against the pair to send their cases to trial.


Sandusky says he is innocent of more than 50
charges stemming from what authorities say were sexual assaults over 15
years on 10 boys in his home, on Penn State property and elsewhere.


The scandal has provoked strong criticism
that Penn State officials didn't do enough to stop Sandusky, and
prompted the departures of Hall of Fame football coach Joe Paterno and
the school's longtime president, Graham Spanier.


Curley, 57, Penn State's athletic director,
was placed on leave by the university after his arrest. Schultz, 62,
returned to retirement after spending about four decades at the school,
most recently as senior vice president for business and finance, and
treasurer.


Curley and Schultz testified to the grand
jury that McQueary never relayed the seriousness of what he saw and that
they told Spanier what they knew before telling Sandusky not to bring
children on to campus.
