Fourth, you don't think people like Joe "I have my own 900lb statue and a library named after me" Paterno aren't concerned about their public image and legacy?

For the sake of the argument lets say you were at Penn State and knew of the crime Sandusky committed and risked perjury charges by covering it up. You're telling me that when thinking if you should keep this a secret or not, "my family would be embarrassed" and "my legacy would be tarnished" would carry more weight in your decision making process than "i'll go to jail"?
