I’ve never been close to anyone who did anything like what this Sandusky did so I really don’t think I can even imagine how screwed up the thinking must be. When he was convicted, I wrote a post here that suggested that he be left in a cell with a pistol and a Bible, and that no one bring him any food, water or supplies. Just return in a couple of weeks and remove his body.
I assume these guys can on some level control themselves, but they often don’t, obviously.
Sandusky didn't have to control himself. He had the green light from Paterno and others.
I worked in uniform for 25 years in the NY State prison system, and dealt with all kinds of criminals. I'd like to think that Sandusky will have a hard time behind bars, but the truth is, the scumbag will probably ask for protective custody and get it. He was protected at Penn State, and will be protected behind bars.
