Sandusky insists he is innocent of child sex abuse. Wants out of isolation.

[Are_grits_groceries]

(Reuters) - Former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky still maintains he is innocent of sexually abusing children, remains determined to clear his name and insists that he has always been faithful to his wife, Dottie, his defense lawyer said on Monday.
<snip>
"The main reason is he wants the public to know he's not guilty, but the most important reason is he wants to maintain his innocence for his family's sake," Rominger told Reuters. "He really feels that (the conviction) is an insult to his wife, who he has loved and been faithful to all these years."

"Jerry said to me that he was looking forward to being evaluated by the psychiatrist because he was going stir crazy sitting in that holding cell by himself and just needed to get a chance to get out and see family," Rominger said.

"He lost some of his energy, but we still share a joke or two about a few unrelated things, inside jokes basically. He's still capable of a little bit of humor. He told me he's been thankful for the companionship of the guards who've been supervising him because otherwise he'd have no one to talk to."

Jerry Sandusky wants out of isolation in jail
<snip>
"He's anxious to be able to move around," Rominger said. "His exact quote to me, 'I don’t think I’m suicidal. I’m dealing with this, but if I have to sit around in this cell for a few more days, I am going to go nutty.' ”

In general population, Rominger said, Sandusky would be on a block with only a few other inmates.

smh

[Capt. Obvious]

1. The conviction is an insult to his wife

Go on.

[hobbit709]

2. Poor baby.

[Earth_First]

3. Not sure Sandusky quite understands the severity of being sent to general population

He's much better off in isolation...

[Ganja Ninja]

8. I don't think he's come to grips with the fact that he's been caught tried and convicted.

He has shown no sign of shame or remorse and really no emotion of any kind.

[SoCalDem]

4. I bet those HUNDREDS of kids really wanted him to stop attacking them. n/t

[babydollhead]

5. how old is the guard?

his idea of "companionship", isn't one I'd want my kid/boyfriend/husband/dog/ or grandfather any where near.

[Vinca]

6. Boo hoo. I still think there's no way the wife didn't know what was going on.

[Ship of Fools]

7. Clueless.

He really, REALLY thinks he did nothing wrong. *Faithful* to his wife??
Perception is what he's worried about?? He wants us to believe
that he never raped those young boys, because it's important for his
wife to know that he was *faithful* to her.

Surreal.

[hobbit709]

9. He's telling the truth, if you define "faithful" as not having sex with other WOMEN.

[Ship of Fools]

13. I think you're being snarky?

If you aren't, to me it still wouldn't be logical...He raped.
It's not the same thing as spending a romantic evening
with another person, male OR female. I think he views
it as such--romantic--which is why it seems so surreal
to me...

[hobbit709]

19. I keep forgetting to include this.

[Ship of Fools]

20. Hee hee hee...I always forget that one, too...

[TheCowsCameHome]

10. He'll be begging to get back in.

Guaranteed.

[BlueIris]

11. By all means, let him out of solitary.

Gen Pop should be lovely for a guy like him.

[Ptah]

28. Is Gen Pop lovely for anyone?

[BlueIris]

29. No, of course not.

Pardon me.

Sandusky brings out the worst in my thoughts.

[backscatter712]

12. After what he did, I hope they supermax him until he kills himself. n/t

I mean it. Pyschologically torture him until his mind shatters.

That's what should happen to child molesters.

[lapislzi]

14. Well, then.

A jury of his peers decided differently, based on the evidence. How perfectly strange that all those witnesses conspired to tell lies about poor Mr. Sandusky.

I suppose since he is innocent of all charges, he should be released into the general prison population pending his appeal. I'm sure the other prisoners will accept his claims of wrongful conviction and let him serve his sentence in peace.

They want Barabbas, give them Barabbas.

*edited for spelling. Need more coffee.

[malaise]

15. If he's innocent

I'm a virgin

[Arkana]

16. Aye, and I'm a bluebird with a frog for an uncle.

[Aerows]

17. He just doesn't get it

He was convicted. 12 people believed without a shadow of doubt that he was guilty of 45 counts. 45!

Now he wants out of isolation and to be around other inmates? He is CLUELESS about his own situation. He's been so privileged all of his life, and it has been all about Jerry all of his life, that he's in for a shock once he's among other prisoners.

[WilliamPitt]

18. Sandusky in general population?

Might as well dive into a shark tank with a pork chop tied around his neck.

[morningfog]

21. He is completely delusional. Hopefully, for his protection, the prison

will not accommodate his wishes.

[Avalux]

22. Awwww,,,,poor Jerry.

Forgive me if I don't give a fuck.

[hifiguy]

23. Denial is one thing. This is something else again.

Guilty on 45 counts is a pretty damning verdict. Own it, you monster.

[Initech]

24. If he really wanted to prove his innocence he would have testified.

[Faux pas]

25. He must be planning suicide by fellow inmates.

Let him run free among the GP.

[BlueToTheBone]

26. BooHoo.

Those children wanted out of where they were too. Once a pedophile, almost always a pedophile. And btw, you don't want to be out of isolation.

[snooper2]

27. His ignorant wife should be in a cell as well, when is she going to be charged?

[EC]

30. Well, then

if that is what he wants...let him in with the others.

Heh, don't many child rapists end up dead in prison when they are in with the general population? Well, I guess he knows what he wants...put him with the others.

[malthaussen]

31. Either he's looking to commit "Suicide by Inmate,"

OR he wants to display such total insanity that he will get off on appeal as incompetent.

Unfortunately for him, the law doesn't work that way in PA.

32. Maybe he just wants to be incarcerated with less physically-imposing inmates...

Like juvenile offenders...
