(14,938 posts)The cycle continues. This was how Sandusky was raised. When he was growing up, therapist didn't exist, no one could identify the abuse ...heck, we have therapist today and didn't identify the issues until victims -survivors finally came forward. Sandusky believed this to be normal based on his life nurturing failures.
What is such an offensive crime in this case is the cover up by so many people and community organizations. So many heads went into the sand. Some call it denial and some may see it as selfishness, not wanting to get involved or loose a meal ticket but I call it just wrong...to be silent.
Sandusky appears to of learned from his father via his own life experience as to how one builds a wall of protection. A fortress made from community " worship", power and prestige.
