How do you prevent it? How about shutting down Penn State Athletics since they continue to profit from their brand in the years following the coverup of a child rapist.

Still can't stomach PSU program... That said, this toxic ship can be partially righted through listening, reporting, consequences and raising awareness. Baby steps.

It is but the requirements on who has to report it were not defined by law in all cases.
