Breaking: Jerry Sandusky's attorney files appeal

Well, this may not overshadow the Freeh Report, but it's a pretty big deal.

Karl Rominger, attorney for convicted child molester Jerry Sandusky filed an appeal today in court. The appeal appears to be based on charges that the judge overstepped his bounds, forced the defense into changing their tactics and failed to adhere to the laws governing such trials.

The appeal is based mostly on technicalities. Among them, that Judge John Cleland forced the defense to reveal who they shared their discovery with, which forced them to reveal their case strategies. That's the heart of Rominger's argument.

We aren't attorney's so we don't know if this will hold any weight, but we are really curious about the timing. With everything going on around the Freeh Report, we find it quite interesting Rominger waited until this afternoon to file.

Did he think nobody would notice?
