Former Penn State assistant coach Jerry Sandusky was jailed Wednesday following additional child sex charges from two new accusers, bringing the number of alleged victims to 10. Sandusky was unable to post his $250,000 bail, according to attorney Joe Amendola, because he didn’t have time to make arrangements ahead of time. Sandusky was arrested and charged with four counts of involuntary deviate sexual intercourse and two counts of unlawful contact with a minor.
Each count is punishable by up to 20 years in prison. In addition, there is one new count of indecent assault and two counts of endangering a child’s welfare, each punishable by up to seven years. Sandusky will face a preliminary hearing at 8:30 a.m. on Tuesday.
