Sandusky Angry He's Not Going To Be Allowed To Tell The Tender, Romantic Side Of The Story (Onion)
BELLEFONTE, PAAs jurors began deliberations Thursday on charges that he sexually abused 10 boys over a 15-year period, former Penn State coach Jerry Sanduskywho did not testify during his trialexpressed regret over being denied a chance to tell "the sweet, loving, tender, and romantic part of the story" that he felt the jury had a right to hear.
"Everything they're saying happened is just wrong," Sandusky told reporters while awaiting a verdict. "The sordid stories about the locker room shower, the terrible testimony about what happened in my basement
None of these things really expresses the depth and intensity of my feelings as I opened my heart of hearts to these kids."
"I have no idea why [defense attorney] Joe [Amendola] didn't want me to talk about that stuff," Sandusky added. "What we had together, those boys and I, was truly special to me."
Sandusky faces 48 criminal counts in the trial, and the jury heard from eight alleged victimsnow ages 18 to 28who said the coerced sexual contact with the former defensive coach ranged from kissing to fondling to showering together to forced oral and anal sex. Sandusky said he was surprised and disappointed none of the boys mentioned the beautiful, special times he tried to share with them.
"Maybe it was just me, all along," said Sandusky, burying his face in his hands. "Oh, God, it was, wasn't it? I can't believe I let myself fall for the oldest trick in the book. I'm such a fool."
