Ex-PSU AD Tim Curley Says He 'Should Have Done More' After Sandusky Complaint
Former Penn State athletic director Tim Curley acknowledged he pleaded guilty to child endangerment in the Jerry Sandusky sexual abuse scandal because he "should have done more," according to the Associated Press.
Curley was testifying during the child endangerment case for former Penn State president Graham Spanier on Wednesday.
Both Curley and former Penn State senior vice president Gary Schultz pleaded guilty to child endangerment for their role in the Sandusky scandal.
In 2001, then-graduate assistant Mike McQueary saw Sandusky molesting a boy in the locker room showers at the university and told former head coach Joe Paterno and other university leaders. During Wednesday's testimony, however, Curley denied that either McQueary or Paterno revealed to him that the inappropriate behavior was sexual in nature.
"He said there was horseplay, wrestling in the shower," Curley testified, according to Susan Snyder and Angela Couloumbis of Philly.com, adding: "I thought Jerry had boundary issues, judgement issues that needed to be addressed."
McQueary has testified that he clearly indicated the incident was sexual in nature, however.
Additionally, "Curley acknowledged that the men initially had intended to notify the Department of Public Welfare of the McQueary report but that he became 'uncomfortable' with that plan after talking with then head football coach Joe Paterno," per Snyder and Couloumbis.
Curley also noted he reported directly to Spanier with no intermediaries, according to Matt Miller of PennLive.com.
Sandusky is currently serving 30-60 years in prison after being convicted on 45 counts of sexual abuse of young boys and other charges.
