The disgraced former Penn State defensive coordinator accused of molesting and sexually assaulting boys on and off campus is expected in the Center County courthouse for a hearing in two weeks.
The lawyer for 68-year-old Jerry Sandusky filed a bail modification request on Friday, which asked a judge to loosen the restrictions on the house arrest agreement.
According to court documents, attorney Joe Amendola says many of Sandusky’s eleven grandchildren are saddened that they haven’t been able to see or talk to their grandfather since he was arrested on a second set of charges on Dec. 7.
The modification request asks Judge John Cleland to allow supervised visits with his grandchildren inside his College Township home, as well as permission to call, text and Skype with his youngest family members.
The motion also asked the judge to consider allowing Sandusky to visit with friends inside his Grandview Road home, as well as travel in and out of the county to work with his legal team and private investigators working on the case.
The hearing is set for Feb. 10 inside the Centre County courthouse and is expected to take less than 30 minutes.
