Former Penn State assistant Jerry Sandusky is facing two more child rape alleges after more victims came forward following the grand jury’s indictment. This time, though, the alleged victims are under 18, and came forward after the initial investigation was completed. The story takes an even more interesting twist with the latest set of allegations, as well.
Penn State Scandal: Family Member Of Jerry Sandusky Raises Allegation, According To Report
According to Sandusky’s attorney, one of the alleged victim’s is a member of Sandusky’s family.
Attorney Joe Amendola said the allegations stem from difficulties within the child’s immediate family. He said the assault is alleged to have occurred prior to Sandusky’s arrest earlier this month, but was not brought to the authorities attention until after the former Penn State coach was charged.
The latest allegations are being investigated, but the process is still in its early stages. Sandusky adopted multiple young boys in the past, taking on a father role to many both in his work with the Second Mile charity and in his home life.
