There have been a number of developments in the alleged child rape scandal involving a former assistant football coach at Penn State. Jerry Sandusky was charged earlier this month with 40 felony counts relating to the sexual abuse of children. On Monday, he spoke with NBC’s Bob Costas in his first interview since being charged.

Jerry Sandusky: “I say that I am innocent of those charges.”

Bob Costas: “Innocent? Completely innocent and falsely accused in every aspect?”

Sandusky: “Well, I could say that, you know, I have done some of those things. I have horsed around with kids. I have showered after workouts. I have hugged them, and I have touched their leg. Without intent of sexual contact.”

Jerry Sandusky is out free on $100,000 unsecured bail. It has been revealed that the judge who allowed Sandusky to be freed on a reduced bail was a former volunteer at his charity, Second Mile, a foundation for needy children.
