Pontius Pilate washed his hands, too.

As for serving on juries, I have. I have picked juries. I have reviewed the convictions of murderers, thieves, and innocent people alike. I know the difference between prosecuting someone in court - which Paterno is not facing - and punishments imposed by employers, friends, and society. If my brother cheats on his wife, I do not have to proclaim that he is innocent until proven guilty because I am not charging him with a criminal offense.

If someone gives safe harbor to an abuser, he has earned my disdain whether he ever goes to court or not.
