Before beloved retired Penn State University coach Jerry Sandusky was convicted of numerous counts of child molestation, he had a long and impressive career as the university’s defensive coordinator. In 2011, following a two-year grand jury investigation, Sandusky was arrested and charged with 52 counts of sexual abuse of young boys occurring from 1991 until 2009. He met his victims through a program he started in 1977, The Second Mile, a non-profit serving Pennsylvania’s underprivileged and at-risk youth. This is the sinister true story of Jerry Sandusky, a monster who preyed upon vulnerable children.
