Commentary on Sandusky Sentencing

Yesterday former Penn State football coach Jerry Sandusky was sentenced to 30-60 years in prison, despite his claims of innocence and conspiracy.

Sandusky's sentencing should not close the book on how we are going to go about preventing child sexual abuse - and responding to concerns in our midst.
