Former Penn State coach Jerry Sandusky sends message from Prison claiming he never molested anyone
Former Penn State football coach Jerry Sandusky was found guilty in 2012 of 45 counts of sexual abuse of ten boys he met at his charity over a 15-year period.
The former Penn State coach was convicted of child molestation, and has never spoken publicly, but finally opened up about the case to the Daily Mail.
Sandusky currently serving time at Laurel Highlands State Correctional Institution in Pennsylvania said he is innocent.
‘I never ever in my life ever thought about molesting anybody,’ he told DailyMail.com.
‘I was accused of heinous crimes, which I’ve never committed. My wife was my only partner in sex and that was after marriage.
‘I was in disbelief in terms of how this happened. Why were they [accuser] saying things that were so inconsistent with what they had said before?
‘I believe I was wrongfully convicted by inconsistent, perjured testimony.’
In total Penn State paid out $63.1 million to victims of Sandusky, with other expenses, settlements and fines associated with the cases are estimated to be around $220 million.
