Well as the old saying goes "Like father, like son". Sad, sad, sad

The rotten apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Wouldn't surprise me if the father planted the worm in the sons apple. Most sex abusers were themselves sexually abused as a child.

I'd actually be surprised if that DIDN'T happen.  Just sick.

Pennsylvania Live: Matt Sandusky, the adopted son who went to police with mid-trial sex abuse allegations against Jerry Sandusky in 2012, said Monday he's only concerned about the victims in a new case involving another of Jerry's sons

"For me, and where I'm at, I'm only on the side of these victims... and hoping that they're receiving the love and support they need at this time," Matt Sandusky told PennLive in a telephone interview.

Jeffrey Sandusky, 41, was charged by Pennsylvania State Police Monday with trying to entice two teenage girls into sex acts, and committed to Centre County Prison in lieu of $200,000 bail.

Matt Sandusky reiterated that he has been estranged from Jerry Sandusky's family since 2012, so he is only speaking for himself.

Matt Sandusky said he was not aware of any investigation involving Jeffrey until about an hour before Monday's arrest, when he said he received a heads-up call from someone else familiar with the case.

Of Jeffrey, Matt said, his only concern is that justice prevails, and that if he is found guilty he "spends a great deal of time in prison for these crimes."

Matt Sandusky and his wife, Kim, run a non-profit, Peaceful Hearts, dedicated to survivor-informed advocacy, recovery from abuse, and preventing sexual victimization of kids by educating children and adults about sexual predators.

Matt Sandusky's mid-trial "flip" was considered a major moment in his father's criminal trial, and has been cited by trial attorney Joe Amendola as one of the major reasons he recommended that Jerry Sandusky not testify in his own defense...


In his book, incidentally, Matt Sandusky wrote about getting a telephone call from one of his four adopted Sandusky family brothers at the time he was pondering going to police.

Matt Sandusky said that brother suggested Jerry had made advances on him too, and Matt would have his full support if he came forward.

Matt Sandusky did not name that brother in his book, nor would he in Monday's interview with PennLive: He says his firm position is that any victim solely owns the right to go public with their story.

But that brother, Matt Sandusky noted Monday, eventually closed ranks with the larger Sandusky family after Matt went to police.
