I agree with you. Paterno got off easy by dying otherwise he would be facing criminal charges

Simply not true. You both are wrong. The indictments occurred while Paterno was still employed by Penn State, and Paterno was not only not indicted, he was praised by PA Attorney General on how he handled the information he was given (see link).

There is NO evidence that Paterno covered up anything. In fact, even the men who were indicted notified the school attorney and head of the charity that Sandusky founded. That's not a very good coverup.

There is evidence, however, that the NCAA colluded with Freeh during his investigation. And several examples over many years that Freeh may be corrupt (see link).

A lot more is known since the issue blew up in 2011. This article is a good overview with links to the information/facts of the case. https://onwardstate.com/2015/01/20/an-open-letter-to-keith-olbermann/
