There are the legal requirements and then there are the moral requirements. Joe, the GA, and janitor, to varying degrees, probably met the legal requirements, but as to the moral, can't say they did. That being said, I have not heard how hard Joe pursued the investigation, or how long it took him to report it- and if he could get his head wrapped around the possibility that his friend and member of his clan of coaches there was a pedophile- after all, most pedophiles are married men, often with kids of their own. They are often involved with activities associated with kids-coaches, teachers, boy scout leaders, etc. Not to slam the 99.99% of coaches,teachers and volunteers who day in and day out, make a positive difference in the lives of kids. They don't walk around with a red P on their chest. But ultimately, Joe had the moral responsibility to follow through.
