(Undated) -- A former director of the FBI will lead an independent investigation into Penn State’s response to allegations of child sexual abuse by its former defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky. Governor Corbett is voicing his full approval. Louis Freeh, also a U.S. District Court Judge, says he’s been assured that no one at Penn State will be off-limits during his investigation, which comes with no deadline or time-table. "We have been asked to do this with a commitment to show no favoritism toward any of the parties whose action we will be reviewing, including the Board of Trustees," he says. The governor says Freeh was a good choice. But, Corbett’s spokesman, Kevin Harley, wouldn’t address questions that Penn State was too close to The Second Mile charity run by Sandusky. "That’s really something that maybe Louie Freeh and his investigation will look at," he says. Freeh says his team immediately will report any evidence of criminality to law enforcement. Ken Frazier, chair of the Penn State Special Committee formed in response to the Sandusky case, says Freeh’s interim reports will not be released to the public.
