Sandusky horror story continues to get more disturbing

**SNIP**
Sandusky got out of jail for free.
An unsecured bond is merely a promise -- that's all Sandusky had to give, a promise -- that the defendant will show up in court. If he doesn't show up, he'd be on the hook for $100,000. By then, the defendant could be in Costa Rica.
The judge who set Sandusky free for free? Her name is Leslie Dutchcot. She has volunteered with Sandusky's charity, The Second Mile, the one that allegedly provided him a hunting ground for victims.
Sandusky capitalized on that, too. While he was out of jail -- not wearing the monitoring device prosecutors wanted him to wear, a request former Second Mile volunteer Leslie Dutchcot declined -- Sandusky helped his defense team find one of the alleged victims.
Can you believe that?
Sandusky's attorney, Joe Amendola, told Costas on Monday night that someone from the defense team -- Amendola didn't specify who; it could have been Sandusky himself -- has been in contact with the child known as alleged Victim Two.
"So you found him, the Commonwealth has not?" Costas asked.
"Yeah. Interesting, isn't it?" Amendola replied.
No. Not interesting -- it's horrifying. Presumption of innocence is one thing, but contacting an alleged victim before the trial? Horrifying. The idea that Sandusky or his people were able to talk to the alleged victim, influence the child's testimony, even persuade him not to cooperate at all ... it's beyond comprehension that such a thing could happen.

Judge should be removed immediately for failure to recuse.
Period.
Oh, I almost forgot.
There needs to be another Grand Jury convened immediately to indict for witness intimidation and tampering on the part of ~both~ Sandusky and his lawyers.
Sarah said she would bring the rope. I think it’s time.
We’re gonna need more than one.
There’s another “sport” that’s kingship affected this-homosexuality.
Is this the guy who--at the age of 49--impregnated a 16 year old client?
Happy Valley is a mecca for pedophiles.
Go Ped State.
Everyone involved with this, if guilty, should be beaten to death.
He will walk.
Enough time has gone by, and enough influence brought to bear, that the witness’s stories will contradict each other. Look at the guy who said he say the abuse in the shower! He has changed the story he told to the grand jury already.
Of course, Sandusky could “kill himself” and remove all traces of who he was supplying.
Sandusky is the “Poster Boy” for the Lefts' beloved “relative values” campaign and he will not see one day in jail.
I read the stories at your links, does it strike anyone odd that a college football coach would have more than 5 million dollars in assets so that he has to sell his wife the house for a buck as part of estate planning. Does coaching pay that well?

PSU will never live this down. Football prospects are already bailing like crazy. Their athletics department will be so decimated with a year that the university will be forced to go back to its original mission of ....
Teaching and educating students!! Hoodathunkit?
Then there’s Sandusky having an elementary school behind his house. Dutchcot should be disbarred.
It’s hard to know how well since PSU tried so hard for so long to keep the info secret. Wonder what other kind of payouts PSU has been hiding using that open records loophole.....
