US college coach Sandusky jailed for life for child sex

BELLEFONTE, Pennslvania: Former Penn State American football coach Jerry Sandusky was sentenced on Tuesday to between 30 and 60 years in prison, in a high-profile child sex case that shocked the country.
At an emotional hearing featuring tearful statements from victims, Judge John Cleland warned 68-year-old Sandusky that he was imposing a prison term that had “the unmistakable impact of being for the rest of your life.”
Sandusky was convicted of 45 counts of child sex abuse in June, after a trial in which he was found guilty of molesting 10 children over a 15-year period, meeting them through a charity he founded for troubled youth.
The former coach, clad in a red prison scrubs with the words “Center County” on the back, gave a rambling, 20-minute statement during his sentencing hearing in Bellefonte, Pennsylvania.
