@Beejay,
I don’t think Ganim does anything by accident; visiting her family in Gricar territory, what she said about Amendola and the article I posted awhile back about the little foster boy that went missing on his way back from buying candy years ago. I think she has some of the answers (more than we do, anyway) and she is looking to confirm.

Erose was referencing the missing/murdered child B.J. Jordan (other posts around there have links, etc)
Erose was also referencing my post wrt Amendola, snipping the relevant portion (found at same BOC link, same page, just above erose’s):

“Some attorneys would grumble when he would flit into former District Attorney Ray Gricar’s office, or the office of Gricar’s successor, Michael Madeira, and come away with deals that no one else could get.”
She bugged me because she never answered the question she implied in her lead paragraph: just how come Joe could do that?
Just reporter hyperbole?? Or did she mean to plant that question in our minds? And, if so, does she know the answer to it?

Amendola worked alongside Ed Rendell briefly in the Phillie DA’s office, shortly after Amendola graduated law school (which was in 1973). Gosh, we’ve got all this upstream; just not in one place. Now I’m seeing why Sandusky said Philadelphia had always been important to TSM.
Bucceroni and Ganim made up this morning:

How do I know of these 1977-1980 investigations you ask, I was criminally associated with those investigated by FBI Agent Freeh. FYI
http://twitter.com/gregbucceroni/
Bucceroni said on his twitter that while he was a victim of Savitz, he helped recruit other victims, also for the child porn operation. Also said he once worked for Tony Trombetta (Anthony Trombetta), with Brighton___. Brighton has some diff names, currently I think it’s Brighton Management. Back then, child porn was photos. So, internet child porn destroyed that end of Trombetta’s business. Bucceroni says that claim can be backed up by IRS–he was a Trombetta employee.
Much in MSM, old, about Trombetta. Here’s an interesting one, I chose since it shows Phillie city officials enabling Trombetta’s newer lines of nastiness.
“Run by Anthony Trombetta, who was convicted on a federal prostitution-related charge in 1975 and who has a long history of alleged mob ties….”

A new report comes from a witness who claims that Sandusky and another man, a booster of the program, abused two boys on a private jet. The witness can easily prove his ties to the booster, yet had no knowledge of who the boys were at the time. The FBI is now following that trail, which is considered a very serious investigation.

snip:
“Also in March of this year, U.S. Postal inspectors were tasked to investigate The Second Mile charity, which was founded by Sandusky. That investigation is on hold, awaiting for documents to be released by the State Attorney.”

The only “State Attorney” I know of would be the PA Attorney General. The ones who recently withdrew from the matters wrt Sandsusky’s appeal (Rominger’s working on).
Oh, gosh, don’t underrate the U.S. Postal Inspector’s Offc. It’s the only way a lot of guys get caught/get charges filed that stick.
Bucceroni tried to get AG, Lynne Abraham (who he still thinks a lot of; doesn’t know what she’s up to); MSM; others to listen to him. No one was interested, for various reasons, including statute of limitations had run. He was in touch with them long ago; volunteered to testify against Sandusky. No one wanted him. He finally got vocal, on social media. He thinks current AG, Freeh, etc, are looking for ways to hush him. Gosh, I hope he’s both super security-conscious, and has safeguarded the info. Don’t want another Gricar.

As to the rumor about Sandusky and another man assaulting kids on a private plane, well, there were a lot of private planes around. If it was late 1070s, not so many. When did PSU acquire theirs? You can always rent one, with pilot. So, not getting into that detail personally.
Do we have a timeline date on the alleged private plane incident? That will narrow it down considerably.
I think I mentioned as did many of you this sort of domino would tip once Jer realized there is no back door for him on this.
Someone is going to try to fix this with cash first, and every investigating body is sitting in the driveway dressed like asphalt.
B
erose, I’m not sure who the witness may be–could be Bucceroni or maybe the other gansta who went with him when they sold their underwear and bodies to Eddie. Doubtful that Gangsta would want to Play Nice.
Something tells me that the Vi Ripken abduction wasn’t random.
Neither is the Heim bodybuilding with youngsters! Kids don’t need bootcamp for character building. For adults who want a lot of CONTROL, the bodybuilding “vigorous exercise” and contractual letters agreeing to comply with physical fitness, that’s where they get their entree into molestation. Control, control, control.
If Heim was working out as he claims and using the coaches rooms showers when he saw Jerry with young boys, also showering, he knows a helluva lot more than he is saying. His wealth has protected him Long Time.
There was nothing random about Vi Ripken’s abduction, but I am not yet prepared to say it was related to the instant matter. It is a very professional job to leave a cloudy message, imo.
Wrt to Heim, I am receiving hits to my antennae in droves.

Yes, we want to know if Eddie Savitz ever donated money to The Second Mile. Or was he spent after the hundreds he blew on pizza?
Let me correct that previous post and save ya’ll some time doing it. Prosecutors have NOT stepped away from any Sandusky appeal. Here’s what they did:
“Two of the state attorneys who had prosecuted Jerry Sandusky [ed: McGettigan and Eshbach] are asking to hand off representation of the Commonwealth during the defense’s appeal of a protective order.”

Okay, I understand the ‘Bucceroni Rage’ but why not spell out exactly what he wants to say and get it over with?
J’accuse is not enough.
I agree and I have to believe there is some reason nobody wanted him in court.

Cool. I’m lookin behind the curtin, Blink. Can u c me?
Can, Word to da Girl

Thx for bringing up the older posts, Beej.
I was very surprised to hear Bucceroni say that he didn’t know of the Gricar disappearance. Possible to live there and not know?

Thomas Day, reporter, was calling The Second Mile “doomed” already in November,2011.
Here’s his experience as a 15yo in the Friend Fitness program.
http://deadspin.com/5863865/my-second-mile-how-i-grew-up-with-the-now+doomed-organization
oh, hui, blink. i was only peeking before. not now. i’m working now. bui.
The Thomas Day article appears to be updated or was very prescient in November, 2011.
“The Second Mile gave me the strength to do things I never thought I could do: enlist in the military, serve a year in Iraq, earn a master’s degree from Northwestern, earn another in public policy from the University of Chicago (next June if all goes to plan), do 12 chinups.”
Note to WordGirl: The word is chinups, not chimps. Put on your Wigglies before you laugh that hard. The neighbors are going bananas.
Is part of the appeal of an airplane to escape or change jurisdiction of crimes? Is a sexual assualt in a private airplane then considered a federal crime? *****Whose plane,***** and if the witness was not a minor, then again we have another “cover up” by adults. Did the PSU team(s) ever fly private, or always commercial? Spainer is a pilot. Who else?
Multiple reports are coming out about Sandusky’s tie to a Pedophile Ring.
In an exclusive at radaronline.com, information on Sandusky’s alleged connection to a pedophile ring and pornography are explored.
“A witness interviewed by federal authorities in the widening Penn State investigation claims he saw Jerry Sandusky and one of the school’s prominent boosters sexually abusing boys on a private plane, RadarOnline.com is reporting exclusively.”
“And while Postal Inspectors are also trying to determine if Sandusky shared pornography through the mail and sent seductive letters to his victims, the biggest bombshell is the allegation leveled by the witness who was interviewed within the past few weeks.”
The net seems to be widening….
@Word Girl: In talking with folks in Phillie of late, lots of them said, “Gricar who?” Bucceroni lives in Phillie.
I think Ed Savitz donated “In-Kind Support to TSM”. Seriously, problem is, where are TSM’s annual reports/other documents prior to 2005? I can’t find them. But, if I were doing what he is said to have been doing, I would leave no paper trace of donations. But, that’s just me. Savitz Organization–name of his foundation?
Anybody know any more now about the witness and the plane? Only living witness talking right now that I can find is Bucceroni. However, these rumors keep changing as they fly around. So, I want more on the early sources for the plane thing. TIA to anyone…
OK, original source for the planes tale is RadarOnline. If you read the entire article, it sounds like the planes tale did not come from Bucceroni, but yet another witness? Sounds like the plane abuser is still alive (Ed Savitz is dead). Couple of snips:
“The witness was interviewed by the U.S. Postal Inspectors with the FBI present.”
“That man, who has a strong tie to the booster he is accusing, says that Sandusky and the booster abused two boys on a private plane in Pennsylvania….”
Radar’s source said this witness doesn’t know who the boys are, or if they were TSM kids. Witness claims he can prove his tie to the booster. And said there was no pilot or crew around at the time.
And Radar is getting this all from their “unidentified source”, because the witness won’t talk to them, nor will his former atty.
But here’s the thing: Radar says they’ve got documents that financially tie the witness to the booster. Showing a “significant and tangled relationship between the two men.”
So, what documents would those be exactly???
Link:
http://www.radaronline.com/exclusives/2012/08/sandusky-penn-state-investigation-booster-abused-boys-private-plane
Here’s some things from RadarOnline’s earlier article, published on Aug 11, 2012:
Investigators looking into the plane tale are starting with known Sandusky victims (for corroborating witnesses). The plane eyewitness gave an exact place and time [which the general public has not been given--beejay's comment]
Snip:
“This interview did not take place in the state of Pennsylvania and there are documents linking the eyewitness to the man he claims abused children with Sandusky. There is enough evidence that this is being taken very, very seriously.”
So far none of Sandusky’s known victims have been proven to been victimized by a booster and the feds realize they may be hunting for new victims.”

I tend to discredit sources that overuse phrases like “reported by us EXCLUSIVELY”. But we have to start somewhere outside of MSM, which has certain constraints.
The google juice gets in the way, yes. But this will have legs, imo.

I gave into temptation. By googling Bruce Heim State College + Lance Shaner, some interesting things came up. Did we post all this before? Could be.
They/their respective businesses formed a limited partnership around 2007ish for the purpose of jointly owning an airplane to be manufactured in 2007. And to be kept in a hangar in State College area. There’s also an agreemtn wrt its use, and disputes over same. There MIGHT have been earlier such ownership of planes. I didn’t look, but these pre-existing companies of theirs could be tracked back.

Oooo… nice wings! The new plane the guys were buying hadn’t been manufactured yet. They were willing to wait for it. It had been in the works since 2000. A very light jet. Eclipse Aviation’s Model 500 Year 2007 (in the links previously posted).

Noises from the basement?!
Jerry tells how well Dottie could hear noises coming from the basement in his book Touched (amazon p. 100)
“One time, there were some Second Mile kids at our house and Dottie was concerned they might be misbehaving in the basement. She asked me to check on the source of the noise down there, I decided to do it just to ease her mind, if nothing else. I descended the stairs , and as I turned the corner, there came one of the dogs flying over the sofa. I barely had time to turn my head when next came one of the kids hurtling over the same sofa, much like the dog. I rolled my eyes, threw my hands in the air and went back upstairs.
“Everything’s fine,” I said to Dottie. “Just another typical, normal evening in the Sandusky household.” And that really was a common way of life for us. Kids sometimes turning the place upside down, and I was often the biggest kid in attendance.”
Q. Soundproofing?
A. No.
Q. Normal life?
A. Avoidance and Denial.
Q. Kidding around?
A. Nothing Dottie needs to know about.
Q. The Biggest Kid turning the place upside down?
A. My brother and I used to threaten with “I’ll turn you inside out and sew you back up…” (with other graphic details).
So. yeah. The Touched book by Sadusky (cold in the nose again) tells the story of the greatest betrayal from one with the greatest trust.
I would love to write a thesis on his story, using only Touched as a proof-text.
Page 101 in the online Amazon copy of Touched, by Jerry Sadusky, he discusses the ‘contract’ he had with his mentored Second Mile child, Matt, who was much later adopted by the Saduskys:
“Matt was around seven or eight years old when he first became involved in The Second Mile. He would visit our house occasionally, but he was never one to get very attached to anyone. He would stand off in the corner somewhere and watch as I would be wrestling with the other kids. He became an instant challenge for me. I didn’t want to see him go through life by himself at such a young age.”
…”When Matt was entering eighth grade…I convinced his mother to start a program where he could study and work out and spend time with us and, in turn, he would be rewarded with money that would go into a fund for his college education.
**He would have to sign a contract to do his share, and he would also receive some money in hand.**”
(Cue the ominous music here–or, at least, cue an instant “cmonson” http://instantrimshot.com/index.php?sound=cmonson)
Competitive, immature, in denial–it is amazing to read on the back side of the Sadusky trial.
Page 104 of Touched (amazon online version) talks about an argument in a fast food store where Art and Evie were present with the Saduskys and quoted by their son, Jerry.
“There was just something about the competitive nature between EJ and me. No matter what the contest was, we’d make it fierce. We…had an argument…about basketball. The whole family was there, and most looked embarrassed to be seen with us. My dad thought he would have to step in. Dottie kept telling me to grow up and quit acting like a child andmy mother said she couldn’t believe it was all happening. But that was life in our family…”
Benjamin Hulburt (and his brother Christopher, an atty) have been in business with Lance Shaner. For those interested in parsing those timelines and relationships, including the various permutations of the business name “Rex”, here are some links. (Remember Shaner presenting Tom Corbett the $100K campaign contribution check?) From time to time, Shaner has been CEO/similar of Rex Energy Corp, which I believe he and Benjamin Ward Hulburt were the cofounders of in 2001. I see this man’s last name spelled different ways; sometimes Hurlburt.
Interestingly, but of no consequence, Benjamin and Christopher recently started their own energy company. And named it Eclipse Resources (like the Eclipse plane; I didn’t look for any other connection; Eclipse Aviation went thru bankruptcy 2-3 yrs ago)

Today i also noticed people urging Bucceroni to get his story out there. One tweeter suggested national media, perhaps VinniePolitan or one other. B indicated he’d be open to it if someone approached him.
Another person thought B should write a book. B said he has no writing skills. So, a single mother from NJ wanted to get in touch with him along those lines. I assume she has writing skills.
Hope the legal action moves forward without all this sort of thing screwing things up.
Lol, I think you cannot refer to him as B, lol, it could make it foggy in these parts.
That said, I completely agree- and that is the problem with distillation.

And, Shaner is the $$$ behind the retirement village, and the one to sue TSM for his q-mil donation.

Correction: November 16, 2011
An earlier version of this article contained quotations from people who identified themselves as Penn State students named Jeff Heim and Paul Howard, who said he was studying aerospace engineering. The comments were deleted because Penn State has no record of a student named Jeff Heim or a record of an aerospace engineering student named Paul Howard.

Have landed after a driving RT to new england over 4 days–Harrisburg heys were H… at midday Fri. Thinking PA corruption if any has to be tied to hwy contracts.
way to go beejay getting us on board a plane.
re all the “contract” comments. this became a popular tool taught in ba and masters programs to all sorts of social service and soft psychology degrees from the 80s and used in countless programs nationwide from adult to child clients. I’ve seen and heard contracts used with cpsd parents in early 80s in DC (had to do it myself). used in luxurious independent schools as recommended by ” behaviorists” the schools liked between parent/child or teacher/child. Used by treatment teams with patients on mental wards (nurses loved them). Contracting was all over, everywhere and still is. Were expected to keep it simple & negotiate 3-4 items. I expect the person who introduced “contracting” to Sandusky and Heim and as a social service management model was Raykovitz. This contracting was so pervasive with children and parents in every tom dick and harry agency, JS didn’t think
of it. It was given to him. And, yes Word Girl I think it’s control crap and wouldn’t use it now.
that’s Harrisburg highways… (ugh)
what I noticed was the embedded story lines that DHS will not investigate JS’ contacts with their agency over the decades–from foster parent, to agency contractor,to mentor of clients, to the abuse reports’ handling. To me it’s major that PA DHS is not having their State AND County IGs doing internals.
Oh and US Postal Inspector imo is the agency involved if going after a RICO case.
Oh, dear. Bucceroni is crying out for attention to a very real injustice. A terrible, heinous thing happened to him and I am so, so sad about that.
His excuse that he is not a writer is not helping him. His tone has scared some of the weaker writers. Many writers cannot take a risk to champion his ’cause’ because their editors are afraid to lose advertisers and their other wealthy attachments.
But, if it’s valid, where is the NY Times?
I’m afraid we have a media as enured to crimes against children as much, if not more than, Penn State University.
Well, well, well…Jeff and Paul, on the street rioting, pretending to be students, IMO.

Following up on trips to visit alumni in New York, New Jersey, and Philadelphia, director Bert Van Hoof, Paul Howard, Rosemarie Hibbler and Jeff Heim have several road trips planned throughout the spring semester.
Trips planned include visits to: Widener University Career Fair, Loews Hotels, Starr Restaurants in Philadelphia, Borgata in Atlantic City, Harrisburg PTLA, and Nemacolin. Undergraduate students will accompany the team on several of the trips.
These multi-purpose trips allow facultyy the opportunity tovisit members of the Penn State Hotel and Restaurant Society (PSHRS), explore and creating new initiatives, and expose current students to a variety of sites within the hospitality industry.

So. Gricar’s 1998 letter chastising Tom Corbett (then in private practice) for a conflict of interest.
“The letter shows Gricar was upset about Corbett being involved in a high profile case, while he also served as the chairman of Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and Delinquency.”
The PCCD. Same agency erose posted about as giving a 4-yr grant: “…that included the Upper Main Line YMCA, the Youth Mentoring Partnership was introduced to the Philadelphia region.”
We have some interesting high profile, wealthy and well-connected men under discussion here. With ties to both TSM and PSU. And having made huge direct money contributions to Tom Corbett. Just IMO, politicians, university staff, government employees (including LE, judges, etc)–these people can be OWNED by people who control this kind of wealth, should they choose to purchase them. Not that they did, of course.

PSU owns a private jet. It sits at University Park Airport, which is also owned by PSU. Paterno’s family was trying to get use of that plane during the negotiations post-JoePa’s death, weren’t they? I’d imagine any major donor/booster of PSU could get access. Football coaches and their guests routinely fly on their university’s plane; on recruiting trips, etc. They’re far too busy to dally around with commercial.
A little info on Univ Park Airport and charter services that operate out of it. Link won’t post. At stratosjets website
@beejay. Is that the same commission a future appointed Supr Crt judge
made political contacts on?
I saw how people were using this site http://flightaware.com/ when they were following the search for a new head coach at PSU after Paterno.

Okay, so maybe not in spam. Probably in spamorambit.
Stratosjets uses three airports in State College.
Using their name dot com sends this post into orbit.
The jurisdiction for a crime committed in an airplane on a privately/publically owned (by Penn State) airfield appears to be that of the county sheriff’s office. If the airplane was in the air, it would become a federal issue as far as I can determine.
