According to Associated Press, former Penn State President Spanier is asking that his bail restrictions be loosened so he can travel and go to his home in New York. Interesting.

"He also cited a desire to travel to the United Kingdom for a project involving the U.S. Department of State."

This is possibly bullshit.

In July, we learned this from the Washington Post:

"His lawyer confirms to the Loop that Spanier is working on a part-time consulting basis for a “top-secret” agency on national security issues. But the gig is so hush-hush, he couldn’t even tell his attorneys the name of the agency."

*NOW* Spanier tells the court his work "involves" the State Department? Something here does not add up.

How hard would it be for Spanier to tell his attorney he works for State? Not hard at all. How likely is it that Spanier's requested trip abroad is for a government agency that is *not* the State Dept? Better than average.

Will the Court allow itself to be lied to?

This will be interesting...The normal person charged with the same or similar things would probably not get such latitude...

Tshodson if it was you or me we’d be dead, unable to make bail the jail population would take care of a pedo by proxy and spare the taxpayers the expense; we are really some eff’d up animals, its ok to rape an adult in jail, but if your jailed for being a pedo, well you know? Sorry just can’t see the logic here, isn’t rape still rape or am I missing something?

Cee

Judge issues a delay in ruling on this and other motions:

"A district judge indicated he needed more time to resolve pending motions before presiding over a preliminary hearing for Graham Spanier, Tim Curley and Gary Schultz. The Jan. 7 trial of Curley and Schultz for some of the charges they face was also delayed indefinitely."
