Sandusky Trial Could Start in May
John Judge Cleland set a tentative date of May 14 for Jerry Sandusky’s trial on child sex abuse charges.
Cleland heard arguments this morning in Centre County on whether a jury should be brought in from outside the State College area; whether Sandusky’s legal team can see secret grand jury testimony; and whether to modify Sandusky’s bail conditions.
The former Penn State assistant football coach is on house arrest and the Commonwealth says he’s violating terms of his bail by standing on his back porch and watching children at a nearby elementary school.
Cleland promised a quick ruling on those matters. UPDATE: CNN reports that Cleland is expected to rule Monday.
Sandusky is accused of sexually abusing 10 boys over a period of 15 years. He denies the allegations.
