Attorney General in November, she may be able to get a grand jury seated to look at this issue. I'm hoping. IMO, I think the reason Corbett didn't go after Sandusky, was because Corbett knew he would need big donors for his campaign, and in no way do you want to offend Penn Staters while you're looking for those donors.
