Another thing that bothers me is that of the 02 rape Paterno was told and then he passed it up the ladder. How did the 2 people above him get charged with purgery and yet Paterno didn't. They got their information from Paterno!! They all said the same story in court. If you charge the upper 2 don't you have to charge Paterno as well?

There's no information that says Paterno was told in 98, he may have been but that's purely speculation.
As to your second point, I don't think you're understanding what the charges are or what they entail. There's nothing to indicate Paterno ever lied under oath, that's what perjury is, and there's no obstruction charge as he did what he was required to do legally by reporting it to his superiors.
