The charges against Sandusky concern his relationships with boys he met through his charity for at-risk kids, The Second Mile, between 19. Sandusky was charged in November and December with a total of 52 counts involving 10 boys he allegedly abused between 19. Today, Judge John Cleland denied a request from former Penn State assistant coach Jerry Sandusky to delay the June 5 start of his child sex-abuse trial, saying no trial date is perfect but that “some dates are better than others.” He would not give defense attorney Joe Amendola more time to prepare his defense.Ĭleland said starting jury selection on Tuesday would, on balance, protect Sandusky’s right to a fair trial, the alleged victims’ rights to their day in court, the state’s obligation to prosecute promptly and the public’s expectation of a swift proceeding.
