Paternos issue report, challenge Freeh's findings

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) — A new report commissioned by Joe Paterno’s family challenges the conclusion by former FBI director Louis Freeh that the late Penn State coach conspired to conceal child sex abuse allegations against retired defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky.

An executive summary of the critique released Sunday said the “observations” of Paterno by Freeh in July were unfounded. The team reviewing Freeh’s work included former U.S. Attorney General and Pennsylvania Governor Dick Thornburgh, who called the report fundamentally flawed and incomplete, resulting in a “rush to injustice.”
