68. Hell, I'd be all for digging him up and slapping charges on his corpse.

He knew. And even if he "tried" to "do something about it," he sure didn't "try" that hard! They all had their priorities: the sanctity of the stupid damn fucking football program trumped everything. They're all seriously at fault, especially those who looked away - whether they were university officials and coaches, alumni, local business interests and politicians, media people and/or sponsors who refused to rock the boat because the Almighty Football Program had to be protected over all else. Lives were ruined. But Heaven forbid the accursed football program be threatened in any way. They're all criminals in my book.

Things like this make me HATE football.
