Sandusky can have contact with grandchildren

NCAA Football Betting Lines

02/13/2012 - Bellefonte, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former Penn State assistant coach Jerry Sandusky can have contact with most of his grandchildren and will have a local jury when his child sex abuse trial begins in May.

Sandusky is under electronic monitoring pending trial on 52 counts of felony and misdemeanor sexual offenses against children. He has denied the charges that he systematically abused children, using his Second Mile charity to groom potential victims.

Judge John M. Cleland also ruled Monday that prosecutors must turn over the time, date and location of any offense, as well as the exact age of the alleged victim on the date of such offense. The judge denied a defense motion requesting prosecutors to specify the particular acts alleged against Sandusky.

Prosecutors had asked for conditions of Sandusky's bail to be modified, preventing him from having visitation rights from his grandchildren and preventing him from having visits from other adults.

Judge Cleland denied that motion with conditions, saying Sandusky's grandchildren can visit, with the exception of three who are the subject of an ongoing child custody litigation. Also, one of the grandchildren's parents must be present during visitations.

Sandusky can also have adult visitors, but must provide a list of up to 12 who will then be subject to approval by officials overseeing the electronic monitoring program. He can also leave his home, with 36 hours advance notice, to assist his defense team in trial preparations.

Prosecutors had also asked for a jury to be selected from out of the Centre County area, a motion Judge Cleland denied.

"It is certainly obvious, however, that jury selection will present its challenges and if, after a reasonable attempt it is apparent that a jury cannot be selected within a reasonable time, then I will reconsider this ruling," Judge Cleland wrote.

Sandusky's defense team was unable to sway the judge into forcing prosecutors to disclose the names, addresses and dates of birth of witnesses. They were also denied an early release of grand jury testimony.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.

NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.

Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.

Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.

Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
