Penn State has agreed to pay millions to settle civil claims involving disgraced former defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky, now in prison for the sexual abuse of 10 children. But the school's efforts to get some help with the bill, through an insurance policy holder, has led to even more digging on this story.
The result has been ugly. Court filings and unsealed documents have kept the story in the headlines, including the news that settlements with alleged abuse victims include instances that date back to 1971, two years after Sandusky was named a full-time assistant coach.
