Jury selection for the Jerry Sandusky trial began today, and it has already hit a few snags. With such a high-profile case in such a closely-connected community, the vetting process is expected to take a while. While it's still early in the selection in process, a number of conflict-of-interest problems have already appeared.

Can they take this case out of Pennsylvania? Honestly, I think Sandusky is going to get off light.

No joke, I thought he would have offed himself by now due to the circumstances of the case.  Dude probably knows he's going to do a light bid

Well, i was completely wrong about all this 

Sandusky's lawyer new all along his best shot was having the trial in the heart of PSU country and they are gladly taking it.

You would think despite all this that people are still level headed and have views on child abuse that are of more importance than a football program....right?

 

[gameover2]

Just goes to show what kind of people there are in that part of the country. Stupid morons.

 

[gunna get it]

How $!%+#%% sad is humanity that potential jurors would show up wearing Penn State gear to a trial about Boys being sexually abused by someone from that school At that school...

thats where your Loyalties lie? you would rather show support for your Piece of @*%% school over supporting alleged victims

$!%+#%% Sorry %!% Piece of @*%% Mother @%++#%!

 

[RyGuy45]

And here we go....

A jury was selected Wednesday. The seven women and five men who will hear opening statements on Monday in the case against former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky include an engineering administrative assistant at Penn State, a dance teacher in Penn State's continuing education program, aPenn State professor who has on the faculty for 24 years, a Penn State senior, a retired Penn State soil sciences professor with 37 years at the university, a man with bachelor's and master's degrees from Penn State and a woman who's been a Penn State football season ticket holder since the 1970s.

[university of nike]

Sad. Disgusting.

 

[stringer bell 32]

Heard the Feds gave Sandusky's lawyer a target letter for transporting a minor across state lines

 

[denni5themenace]

you have got to %#*+%%@ kidding with those juror selections

 

[JLD1523]

Hes going to get off due to a hung jury but the Feds are going to nail him.

 

[ruxxx]

This %%+% sounds like some kind of Mad TV skit.

%!@%*$# pathetic.

 

[pauliepeppas]

Feds are waiting to see how this turns out before they press charges, this #!@$ boggles my mind though

 

[darthska]

Like I said...

There will be no trial, and the guilty will never serve time.

Stories like this are exactly what has made me the cynic that I am.
Looks like I was wrong about the 'no trial' thing, but the bolded/underlined part, I'm telling you, this PSU jury and the overall apathy underneath DISPLAYED disgust w/ child abuse is exactly why I said what I said.

EVERYONE is willing to be appalled; very, VERY few are willing to ACTUALLY blow the whistle and bring a child's oppressor to justice.

 

[CP1708]

How, as a country with the media and rescources available these days, can that happen tho?  This ain't small town Mississippi like the movie A Time To Kill.  We all see this.  The media can report it.  How can the US government not step in and say "yo, naw, not happenin like that.  You freaks get the $+#% up out the box.  We'll handle it from here."

How can that not happen yet? 

 

 

[darthska]

So when I said 'Very few are willing to bring a child's oppressor to justice', you thought I was excluding the gov't?

Oh.

 

[mr marcus]

This is really sad...

 

[hankmoody]

For that area, I don't think it's possible to have a competent jury without any PSU ties. 77k+ current undergrads in the entire system.

PSU alums did this, too: http://www.proudtobeapennstater.com/
