I was wondering if they would let Petrosky testify in this trial since he didn't actually witness the abuse. I am glad the judge let it in under an "excited utterance".
Interesting article on Amendola's defense strategy.
Amendola's possible strategy
I hope the jury realizes that these memories were suppressed by the victims, some since the mid '90's. Most people would be hard pressed to remember exact dates and times over 15 years ago, much less a child who was in fear.
Jerry followed the "book" on pedophilia. He was in a position to have access to young boys, he was in a powerful and protected position as a football coach, he showered them with gifts and attention, and he even had 2 separate "man caves" to bring the boys to (the Penn State locker room and his home basement). Hell, Sandusky was bold enough to take the kids to bowl games and sleep in hotel rooms with them.
