He was and he did

I know that "new facts" are coming out on this story almost by the hour, but I haven't heard that from any media-source. what I've heard is that Paterno did not witness anything but was told by a grad-assistant that some bad sh*t happened. And Paterno told either the A.D. or school president, or both. Now, just so we're clear, I think that is an incredibly lame response. I think Paterno should have -- minimum -- instructed the GA to contact the police, and then followed up to make sure the GA did so. But that is not the same thing as "covering it up", IMHO
