Gricar was the prosecutor who decided not to pursue charges, and that has caused a media firestorm of questions about whether the strange and unsolved mystery of Gricar's April 2005 disappearance had any connection to the allegations of child sex abuse against Sandusky.
"Looking back through all of the stuff I have, years previous to his disappearance, there is nothing," Bellefonte police detective Matt Rickard said. "I’ve never even seen Sandusky’s name even written anywhere."
He even considered the possibility that Gricar might have been conducting an investigation on his own -- something that's been suggested since
Gricar's laptop and hard drive were thrown into the Susquehanna River and destroyed beyond recovery.
But there was nothing to suggest that either, Rickard said.
"There's no evidence to suggest there is any connection between Sandusky’s case and Gricar’s disappearance."
Crazy leads like this aren't new to the Gricar case. In fact,
some really outlandish suggestions have been madeabout murder and scandal, books that might have the key to the plot, or why Gricar would walk away from his life. Nothing has panned out.
"There's no solid leads," Rickard said. "Information comes in and we follow up on it and it's either closed of unfounded and because there's nothing to suggest one theory is more plausible than another theory, it can be twisted, anytime it comes up."
it was not a coverup when all those people were talking to all those official entities
