This is one of those very curious sidelights to the current Penn State story. It may not be related; then again ... It is possible that with the renewed focus on Sandusky and the toppling of several top people at Penn State that fresh clues could be find their way to investigators' hands.

Nothing would surprise me.

If one can believe boosters may be involved, potentially someone with stake in this horror, decided to off the dude.

[ColoradoHAWKEYE]

Probably a connection...Further, it's not like Pennsylvania is all "Happy Valley".

If this guy was easily swayed in to not pressing charges against Sandusky who knows what other shady people this guy had deals with in all walks of criminal activity.

You beat me! THis is a smelly onion...very smelly.

[ssckelley]

This is why I think the FBI needs to get involved in this entire case.

All that has been exposed so far is probably only the tip of the proverbial iceberg. I can almost guarantee there has been a lot of covering up for even more powerful people. Hang on boys and girls in Candyland and be prepared for a shock and awe as you have never seen before if this gets fully exposed.

Don’t dismiss this as some wild eyed conspiracy. Do some research into a guy named John Decamp, who was a Nebraska state senator for 16 years, and his work around the Franklin cover up.

Here is a brief description of his book The Franklin Cover-up: Child Abuse, Satanism, and Murder in Nebraska:

The shut-down of Omaha, Nebraska's Franklin Community Federal Credit Union, raided by federal agencies in November 1988, sent shock waves all the way to Washington, D.C. $40 million was missing. The credit union's manager: Republican Party activist Lawrence E. "Larry" King, Jr., behind whose rise to fame and riches stood powerful figures in Nebraska politics and business, and in the nation's capital.

In the face of opposition from local and state law enforcement, from the FBI, and from the powerful Omaha World-Herald newspaper, a special Franklin committee of the Nebraska Legislature launched its own probe. What looked like a financial swindle, soon exploded into a hideous tale of drugs, Iran-Contra money-laundering, a nationwide child abuse ring, and ritual murder.

Nineteen months later, the legislative committee's chief investigator died - suddenly, and violently, like more than a dozen other people linked to the Franklin case.

Author John DeCamp knows the Franklin scandal from the inside. In 1990, his "DeCamp memo" first publicly named the alleged high-ranking abusers. Today, he is attorney for two of the abuse victims.

VERY incomplete story. He was also involved in several mob-type cases that had nothing to do with this case.

Of course, since the surname of the recently-ousted PSU head coach is of Italian origin, I am sure the conspiracy theorists on this board will have a field day.

Never mentioned the PSU scandal. Point was that Gricar worked numerous "mob" cases over his career.

OTOH, Reading a 23-page grand jury report with NO defense witnesses or legal representation should answer ever question. Just ask Jose Baez.

Gricar may very will have disappeared in connection with this. But, at the time of his disappearance, there was ZERO speculation about it relating to the 1998 Sandusky situation.

Well than obviously they haven't been as thourough as they need to be, because it appears as though they have zero arrests at this point.

I have no problem believing his disappearance could be mob-related. I DO have a problem believing the mob would protect a child rapist.

How the hell do you know?

The Franklin case shows how these things can be full of twists and turns that spiral ever downward.
