I hope that they took into consideration that the Second mile was Sandusky's Neverland ranch ( whatever Jackos home was called ) designed to lure boys in .

At least enough to put him away!! My only hope is that he isn't sentenced to some "mental institution" and rather serves time in 'GEN-POP'!!!!

I'm sure the GP can't wait for Jerry .

Send him to ADX Florence.

Penn State football needs the death penalty. This is way, way worse than anything SMU did. And Paterno needs to be posthumously castigated.

No way in hell hes going to gp. He'll be placed ad seg for years. Put your fantasies of shanks in his neck and "retaliatory rapes" by 100's of inmates away.

Just take this piece of sh!t out behind the barn and shoot him dead.

This would be the perfect time to bring back public hangings. This one justifies it.

I've seen interviews with this guy. He HONESTLY doesn't see anything he did wrong. He's a sick, sick man. He's going to prison and they should make him see the prison shrink whenever possible. The fact that he spent decades doing this is the saddest part of all. Only 8 of his victims came forward. We'll never know how many of them refused to speak out because of how embarrasing and humiliating they would have found it.
The sad thing here is there ARE no winners. This sick, sick fool stole the innocence of young boys he was supposed to have been HELPING and there are now young men who are emotionally scarred for the remainder of their lives because of his actions. His wife and family have to live with the shame of what he did and society as a whole will now be even MORE suspicious of ANY adult who works with kids.

Sandusky will be in prison for the rest of his life, but right now as you're reading this some other "adult" is probably taking advantage of a position of trust and obliterating the mental health of a boy or girl.

I do not advocate life sentences of any kind. They are not going to be given the opportunity to rehabilitate so there's no point... but if you're going to do it, there's no better place for it than Colorado.

I agree. And that is exactly why I want the Penn State football program to die. Sick bastards do what sick bastards do. It's an unfortunate part of reality. The fact that supposedly upstanding, Christian men covered for and/or turned their head to this is actually worse IMO, because they are NOT sick. JoePa was perfectly sane and still let this happen. The AD chose not to pursue it because of the potential black eye. Even the assistant coach that stumbled upon it didn't do everything he should have done.

The failure in the system was not that a mentally deranged bastard did what he did, but rather that perfectly sane and supposedly moral protectorates of young men let it go unchecked.

Jerry Sandusky is on suicide watch at the county jail and is being held in protective custody.

It may not be politically correct to say this, but why is it important to keep him from committing suicide if he wants to? He is almost certainly going to die in prison. The only question remaining is when. So, it is just a matter of timing. And when he eventually does die in prison, it his hard to imagine very many people being saddened by his passing.

I just don't get this. Of course it would be wrong to encourage him to kill himself or to put him in a situation where another prisoner was likely to kill him. But if he really was dead set on ending his own life, why should anyone feel compelled to interfere with that?

Jerry Sandusky on Suicide Watch, Undergoing Evaluations

Jerry Sandusky is on suicide watch at the local jail after being convicted on 45 counts of sexually abusing young boys, the former Penn State coach's defense attorney said today.

....

Defense attorney Karl Rominger told CNN today that Sandusky is being held on suicide watch in protective custody, away from other inmates. The jail would not comment on Sandusky's condition to ABC News.

Sandusky will be held at the county jail for approximately 90 days, until he is sentenced by Cleland to what will likely amount to life in prison.

After that, he will likely spend the rest of his days in a state prison in Pennsylvania, living among the general population of 18- to 79-year olds until he ages out of the system and is transferred to a facility for older prisoners.

Why?

If they offered me five minutes alone with that man he would no longer be an issue.

I suspect that some of his future fellow inmates are likely to share your perspective on that. In fact, if he survives to see his first anniversary in state prison, I will be surprised.

Maybe he will get the Dahmer special in the shower.

I believe in rehabilitation especially for young offenders who make dumb choices and still have a chance to do something with their lives. BUT, I also stongly believe in life sentences and the death penalty. Some crimes are so disturbing a person uses up ALL of their chances to ever mingle with society again. To me this is clearly one of those instances. There is no death penalty violent or painfull enough to make amends for this man's actions.

In my case, I think that he gets out of having to live with his guilt, if he is truly able to do that, if he kills or even if society kills him or places him in a situation to be killed. Death is an easy way out on the human level. I am guessing that every person he molested over the years did not come foward and those that did had to re-live a terrible secret that shaped who they were. Sandusky got to live (falsely) as a well-respected, well-connected member of the community. Honestly, I believe that he is never really going to pay properly.

I am opposed simply because I do not want to feed and clothe them for the rest of their lives. Off with their heads and be done with them since society has no intent on ever letting them out. Thin the herd, if you will.
