Sandusky's interview has led victims to come forward, some from the 1970's

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. -- Jerry Sandusky’s primetime television interview Monday led several potential victims to come forward and consider sharing their story, according to two State College attorneys.

Hearing his voice and his words proclaiming no wrong — while admitting he showered innocently with young boys — was a trigger for some who say they were abused by the former Penn State defensive coordinator. One said it went back to the 1970s, around the time Sandusky founded the charity that prosecutors say was his axis for finding victims.

“They’re literally processing it right in front of us,” attorney Andy Shubin said. “They have kept it from their families, moms, brothers and sisters. ... The folks we talked to are largely folks in their 20s, who in a lot of cases have never told their story before.”

That interview may turn out to be his biggest mistake. He doesn't need any more people to come forward.
More have come forward, and we will hear about them when their stories can be confirmed. Since the judge who gave him such low bail has been replaced, he might be behind bars yet.
I also think this mess may end up snaring Corbett and others in positions of power in different areas.

1. i hope it leads to healing for them.

even at this late date. it's got to be hard to hold that secret inside for so long. :cry:

2. A positive that could result from this...

...is that these victims finally break their silence and tell their stories.

I'm sure these victims are in so much pain--after suffering in isolated silence
for so long. But that's what the vast majority of sexual-abuse victims do. They
carry these secrets around for so long.

Out of this horrible, evil mess that should have never happened--at least some of
these victims can begin the healing process--knowing that the world is on their
side--and that they can break free from the bonds of silence.

3. Just saw on the news 1968 Jets vs Raiders was the last time a games...

coverage was ended ,and went to scheduled movie ' HEIDI ' . Point, since then Sport has become a priority ,money grubbers have always been here.We don't dictate what is important often enough.

4. If I were his legal counsel, I'd advise a plea bargain, have him surrender to the authorities,

and not get these stories on the record. Sandusky went too far by not just saying he isn't guilty, but rather, that he is innocent. His victims are prepared to prove otherwise.
