(Reuters) - Former Penn State assistant football coach and convicted child sexual predator Jerry Sandusky will spend the rest of his days in a maximum security prison in the southwest corner of Pennsylvania, the state corrections system decided on Wednesday.
Sandusky, 68, who was sentenced to 30 to 60 years in prison this month for sexually abusing 10 boys over a 15-year period, was transferred to the State Correctional Institution at Greene County, near Pittsburgh, where he was put in protective custody.

In God's eyes you or I are not any better than he is. We're all sinners harboring one kind of sin or another. Some worse than others yes, but those that are worse need the most help.

His crime was against children. There is no redemption from that. He feels no remorse for what he has done.
If there is a God, Sandusky will never meet him, because he belongs in the deepest and darkest pits of Hell to be tortured for eternity suffering the same abuse he did to children and even that is too good for him.

He deserves no forgiveness and no sympathy.
Ask his victims if they forgive him. You will find a unanimous answer.
Being abused yourself is not an excuse or pardon for inflicting that kind of trauma on someone else. It makes it that much more heinous.

Defiant and unrepentant, Jerry Sandusky accused his victims of lodging "false allegations" against him in a taped jailhouse statement aired by a radio station late Monday, one day before he was to be sentenced on 45 counts of child sexual abuse.

Ya I understand many people will be angry and hurt for a long time. But I think there's always hope for anyone. Anyone could have a change of heart. Jeffery Dahmer became a Christian in Jail before he died in prison. Whereever there's the worst offender, that's where there's the most opportunity for a turn around and hope. That's where compassion comes in.
