Penn State Discloses Fees Paid (so far) in Sandusky Case
"Penn State University said it has paid $3.2 million for legal fees, consultants and public relations firms to address a scandal that exploded with former assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky's Nov. 5 arrest on child sex abuse charges."
"The total released late Monday by the university includes costs through the end of December. It was provided as Penn State unveiled a new website, http://openness.psu.edu, intended to demonstrate increased commitment to public disclosure in the scandal's aftermath."
"The site does not reflect all the costs that Penn State faces over the Sandusky matter. For instance, the school said it will not provide the settlement agreement with former Penn State President Graham Spanier, citing confidentiality language. Nor does the site include the settlement agreement with late legendary football coach Joe Paterno. Mr. Spanier resigned and Mr. Paterno was fired as Penn State faced withering criticism for failure to report to law enforcement a 2002 allegation that Mr. Sandusky assaulted a boy in a campus shower."
