Bellefonte, Pennsylvania (CNN) -- In a cavernous old courtroom with creaky wooden pews for seats and a floor that slopes downhill, Jerry Sandusky's accusers will begin to tell their stories on Tuesday.
They will describe, either in person or through their grand jury testimony and statements to police, how a man who assumed the role of father figure allegedly crossed the line and sexually molested them.
Sandusky's preliminary hearing in Courtroom One at the Centre County Courthouse will be a media event the likes of which this quaint borough, population 6,200, has not seen. Hundreds of journalists are expected to descend on a courthouse that is on the National Register of Historic Places. With its 26-foot white columns, marble stairs, clock tower and Christmas garland hung like bunting, it seems torn from a Norman Rockwell painting.
