Up to this point we have refrained from discussing the despicable alleged actions and case involving former Penn State football coach Jerry Sandusky.

The judge who let Jerry Sandusky return home without paying any bail and without an ankle monitor after being arrested on 40 counts of child sexual assault charges was a volunteer at Sandusky’s charity, The Second Mile.
