Sandusky

You cannot escape the news around ex-Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky.

The sex abuse charges are horrific for sure.  However, when this kind of news comes out I am reminded of the McMartin Preschool case.  While the media pandered to basic instinct, the trial ended in dismissal and acquittal.  After seven years and 15 million dollars.

Do I feel Mr. Sandusky is innocent?  Nope...  Do I suspect he is gulity?  Nope...  If I was a jurist he would be innocent until proven guilty.  As an unwilling voyeur, I just pray that justice will prevail.
