Artist Removes Sandusky from Mural

An artist from Emporium has removed Jerry Sandusky from a mural he painted in State College about 11 years ago.

Every year Michael Pilato adds people who inspire him and one of those was Sandusky for his work with The Second Mile and his impact on Penn State football.

Sandusky was accused in a grant jury presentment last week of multiple counts of sexually abusing children.

The Cameron County Chamber of Commerce & Artisan Center says Sandusky has been replaced on the mural with a chair and a teal ribbon. Teal is the color for survivors of sexual assault.

If Jerry Sandusky is acquitted of the charges he has been accused - but not yet convicted - of, I wonder if Mr Pilato will draw him back in.
