The school's former president convicted of child endangerment, one Penn State trustee felt it necessary to let off a little steam.

And Penn State trustee Albert L. Lord's comments are sure to rile folks up again concerning the events surrounding former football assistant coach Jerry Sandusky.



In an email to The Chronicle of Higher Education, Lord wrote:

"Running out of sympathy for 35 yr old, so-called victims with 7 digit net worth. Do not understand why they were so prominent in trial. As you learned, Graham Spanier never knew Sandusky abused anyone."

Graham Spanier, Penn State's former president, was convicted last week and faces a maximum of five years in prison. He was fired by Penn State in 2011, and has denied he was ever told about anything involving Sandusky.

According to The Chronicle, Penn State has paid out legal settlements of nearly $93 million to more than 30 Sandusky victims.

Sandusky was found guilty in 2012 on 45 different charges, including eight counts of involuntary deviate sexual intercourse.
