Penn State Scandal Deepens: DA That Worked on Sandusky Case Disappeared and Missing Since 2005

[kpete]

DA who didn't charge Sandusky missing since 2005
Searchers found car, laptop (without hard drive) but never his body

................

It is strange that Centre County District Attorney Ray Gricar never prosecuted Jerry Sandusky on child-rape charges 13 years ago, some speculate, because Gricar was known for being fiercely independent and hard on crime.

But it is even stranger that we cannot ask Gricar why Sandusky was not put behind bars because the tough-as-nails district attorney disappeared in 2005. And though he was declared dead July of this year, his body has never been found.

The case of a Centre County PA district attorney who disappeared in 2005 has been revived. Ray Gricar had investigated Penn State assistant coach Jerry Sandusky, who has now been formally charged, leading to the explosive scandal at the college and the firing of legendary head coach Joe Paterno.

BELLEFONTE, Pa. -- The Centre County district attorney has formed a panel of investigators to look into the disappearance of a former county prosecutor nearly five years ago.
Ray Gricar was reported missing by his girlfriend on April 15, 2005, after going for a drive on his day off. His car was found at an antiques market in Lewisburg.

Current District Attorney Stacy Parks Miller said Wednesday in a statement that the new review board will be made up of seasoned investigators from the county. She calls the board an extension of her review of the investigation.

For all those tut-tutting about spreading rumors about Jerry Sandusky pimping out young boys to wealthy donors to his Second Mile organization, the story in you OP is beyond the rumor stage; it's documented fact, although I expect some to offer up a heapin' helpin' of apologia anyway.

3. The cliche' 'more than meets the eye' is apropos here.

Some people and law enforcement are assuming there is no connection but if it is a mystery how do they know?
