Jerry Sandusky just executed a legal maneuver that will keep 8 of his accusers from telling tales of horrific sexual abuse … but only temporarily.
The former Penn State assistant coach waived his right to a preliminary hearing this AM in his child molestation case. The judge was supposed to hear testimony from Sandusky’s accusers and then decide if there was enough evidence to justify a trial. By waiving his right to a prelim, the case will automatically be set for a full trial.
On his way into court, Sandusky said, “We fully intend to put together the best possible defense that we can do, to stay the course, to fight for 4 quarters. We want the opportunity to present our side.”
Outside the courthouse, Sandusky’s lawyer, Joseph Amendola, told the media, “There will be no plea negotiations. This is a fight to the death.”
