The Department of Justice is getting involved in this investigation in more than one way.
We're getting word now that BOJ is also going to assist the states in its prosecution that's in addition to the Department of Education that you just mentioned.
Education Department is trying to determine now.
If Penn State violated what's called the Cleary act which requires all universities to report any campus related crime.
And another development yesterday for the first time.
-- -- regularly scheduled Tuesday news conference was due to the tradition here on the campus the interim coach Tom Bradley spoke to reporters.
He said he did not watch that Jerry sandusky interview that aired this week on NBC.
And he also talked about their coach Joseph Paterno and he says that he did not talk to the coach in the last few days and he explained why it was.
If I called today's -- asked while I call.
What do you call me for you got things to do he knows he importantly he's been through this -- understands.
All the things have to be done with the big game coming up in these players are excited for the game and their responsibility that we have.
And the New York Times is reporting this morning that Joseph Paterno transferred ownership of the family home to his wife Suzanne for one dollar back in July.
The home as a fair market value according to newspaper 594000.
-- -- dollars.
A lawyer for the Paterno family.
That that defense really had nothing to do with the scandal it's more about estate planning but it has been a lot of speculation about the exposure to civil suits that the return knows the school and others may have.
And one other thing worth noting here this report out now that Joseph Paterno is going to retire when he does retire I should say the pensions going to be.
They say 500000 dollars a year you.
