If they haven't already, the Feds need to step in, and quickly. Only way to get to the bottom of this is to bring in investigators who are not beholden to the Penn State brand.

Also, I think this article sheds a lot of light on McQuery's actions. The part about how he meet off-campus with investigators in 2010 and poured out the details of what he saw... this is probably a part of the reason that he was deemed a credible witness while Curley and Schultz were not.

I also got the impression that he felt trapped within Paterno's power structure. Went to Paterno and nothing happened. Given the amount of coverup by law enforcement implied in this article, he probably felt as though even if he went to the cops, nothing would happen. I think to really judge McQuery's actions, you have to understand his place in the Paterno hierarchy, and the amount of power that Paterno had in Pennsylvania, not only on campus, but within the state itself. I'm not apologizing for him, but I do understand how he might have been made to feel powerless and trapped. [still doesn't explain why he stayed there for 9 years after the incident though].
