Sandusky Testimony Day 4: The Prosecution is all but done and other things

You can certainly say the trial of former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky has gone quickly.

Rare is the time that such a high profile case moves to defense witnesses by the end of the 1st week.

But that's what is happening here.

3 Victims, a State Investigator and more discussion of the Bob Costas interview were the highlights of today's time in court.

We should also add here that while the prosecution has not "Officially" rested their case, its believed defense attorney Joe Amendola will begin presenting his defense when court resumes on Monday. (They're taking Friday off)

Among today's revelations: Victim #6 discussed albeit with difficulty, an encounter with Sandusky in 1998...in the showers at Penn State.

Also, a Penn State police detective who investigated that incident testified that he was sure Sandusky would be facing criminal charges as an outcome of the investigation.

He didn't.

2 other victims testified to various encounters with Sandusky, mostly involving either "Sleep-overs" at Sandusky's house which to be quite honest, should have been the 1st clue to most.

And maybe it was...and it was ignored. It's hard to say or judge that now.

One of the victims went far enough to describe a "Basement Sleepover" where he yelled for help as loud as he could. Nobody heard him...and it begs a question, "Where was Dottie Sandusky?"

We can't stress enough how repulsive most of this is. It's even harder to believe that so many people missed so many now obvious clues as to what was going on.

Yet they did.

The prosecution case was very strong and at times heart wrenching and the suspicion is that it resonated very well with the jury.

What you can expect to hear next week is the defense attempting to discredit everyone who testified this past week. You could almost buy that if it were one key witness...but in this case, there are far too many people saying the same exact thing for any reasonable person to think that there is some sort of conspiracy between them all to make "Money and Fame" off this as it has been alleged.

We'll try and pick back up with our daily wrap-ups again on Monday.
