Yep, technically that is true.
Yes, Paterno told those two. And then went on and pretended like nothing ever happened. No follow up. No investigation. Paterno saw that nothing was happening, that it was being swept under the rug. And did nothing. And got another 10 years before the scandal broke, and his precious 409 wins.
Meanwhile, innocent children were being raped during those years. Which could have been prevented had Paterno simply picked up the phone and called the police.
Again, some are ok with that. I'm not, as it turn out, most aren't.
But you are. I guess that's your right.
