Disgraced Former Penn State DC Jerry Sandusky (convicted child molester)

There's just something on this story almost every day.

Penn State got $250K from The Second Mile for sleepover camps conducted on PSU's grounds in 2008 and 2009.

If Sandusky was at those camps ... yikes.

EXCLUSIVE: Penn State Paid by Sandusky's Charity for Use of Facilities as Recently as 2009

Financial records obtained by FoxNews.com show $124,587 was given to Penn State by The Second Mile in 2009. The year before, in 2008, the university received $119,592 from The Second Mile. The money is listed under 'food and lodging' in charity records, and officials said the payments were made on a series of week-long sleepover camps.

Penn State apparently took money for the camps months after the mother of a high school freshman contacted authorities in the spring of 2008 saying her son had been abused by Sandusky. That allegation kick-started the grand jury investigation that earlier this month indicted Sandusky on 40 counts of child sex abuse charges.

It's not clear if Sandusky, who was still director of The Second Mile in 2008 before the group cut ties with him, participated in the camps. University officials said their records do not show the names of those who participated, and The Second Mile officials declined requests to answer questions about Sandusky's involvement.

But Sandusky was still an 'active' director of The Second Mile and earned $57,000 in The Second Mile's 2008 fiscal year, which ended August 31, 2008. Three months later, in November, Sandusky told The Second Mile he was under investigation, and the charity banned him from activities with children, according to a recent statement by the former The Second Mile CEO Jack Raykovitz, who resigned on Sunday.

Sandusky also held sleepover football camps for boys, run through his own corporation, Sandusky Associates Inc., at satellite Penn State campuses all over the state, even after he was turned out from The Second Mile.

When asked for details about money paid to Penn State in 2008, the university's associate vice president for finance and business, Daniel Sieminski, told FoxNews.com via email that The Second Mile ran five weeks of camps. "These funds paid for all the food, lodging and miscellaneous expenses incurred by the University for these camps."

In response to a series of follow-up questions, Sieminski said the activities related to the camps were held at various locations on the main Penn State University Park Campus. "Camps were conducted in classrooms, the outdoor pool, outdoor fields, and Creamery," he said, adding that campers had access to those locations and the university dorms where they stayed.

The victim's psychologist, Mike Gillum, told the paper that Central Mountain High School students were misplacing their anger at Joe Paterno's firing and blaming the 17-year-old, who left the school in the middle of his senior year after experiencing a rash of verbal taunting and name-calling.

Where is the great leader of men, Paterno? Why won't he come forward and hold that press conference that he wanted so badly and say, "knock this [Mark May] off; I'm not the victim here!"

Fact is he wants to be the big victim in all this. It's still all about him in his mind. From the horrendous comments that he made in his yard that night, to his ridiculous orders to the BOT to "not spend one minute worrying about his status" to his silence in the face of this crap. It's all about Joe. It always was. First his fraudulent legacy and now his poor martyrdom.

When his time comes, I hope he gets the funeral that he so richly deserves.

It wouldn't necessarily have to be Sandusky himself, if the rumors are true that kids from 2nd Mile were "rented" out to wealthy donors. Wonder if the guest list for those events is public record.

That tells me that PSU doesn't actually want anything to be found.

Freeh struggles to find socks in his sock drawer each morning.

2 recent victims have come forward.

Two cases of child abuse alleged against Jerry Sandusky have been opened by Children and Youth Services in Pennsylvania.

The cases were reported less than 60 days ago, and so they are still in the initial stages of the investigation.

If they are found to be credible, these would be the first known cases to be reported since Sandusky?s arrest that involve current children. All of the other publicly known cases of alleged victims coming forward have been adults.

In Pennsylvania, when an adult comes forward and alleges abuse -- even if it happened when that person was a child -- it?s solely a police matter. CYS only participates in the investigation if the victim is still under 18.

This new information could give credence to a growing debate over whether Sandusky should have been arrested more quickly.

Still planning on taking that post-it note to Indianapolis, you [censored]ing jerks?

Not that anybody thought that Sandusky had actually stopped his behavior a long time ago, but now we're getting a REAL tally that falls in part on the shoulders of the people who did nothing about it when they had a chance.

Not only "not stopped", but probably started in his 20's, which would be basically all the time he was being enabled at Post-It U.
