Pennsylvania attorney general's report details delays in Sandusky investigation

(CNN) -- A report issued Monday by Pennsylvania attorney general's says that more could have been done to put convicted pedophile Jerry Sandusky behind bars earlier, but the investigation stalled for months at a time in the three years that a case was built against the former Penn State football defensive coordinator.

The report does not accuse anyone -- most notably the former attorney general, current Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett -- of doing anything maliciously to delay the investigation.

Instead, it says that investigators from different agencies failed to communicate and share information and that search warrants and subpoenas were not issued as quickly as they could have been.

For example, almost three years before his arrest, Sandusky was interviewed by a social worker, but police were not invited to the interview.

When officers arrested Deegan at his home, they found traps in his residence. The knobs had also been taken off the doors, and syringes and homemade sex tapes were found.



much more...and a pic of him in his 'gator shirt". He's a CEO on 13 company papers, lots of dough, and very into UF. It appears he could have been offering up young girls for the parties after the games......
