BELLEFONTE, Pa. (AP) Jerry Sandusky and at least some of his victims plan to address the judge at his sentencing, a proceeding that may last less than two hours, lawyers said after a closed-door meeting to iron out logistics ahead of the Tuesday hearing.
Sandusky lawyer Joe Amendola said "it's as certain as certain can be" that the former Penn State assistant football coach will speak to Judge John Cleland and assert his innocence before he is sentenced on 45 counts of child sexual abuse.
"What I anticipate he'll say is he's innocent," Amendola said outside the courthouse Monday afternoon.

So that’s what I saw as I passed through Bellefonte today - the Media Circus swarming Joe Amendola...
That’s a great idea Jerry, tell the very judge who had to wade through all the disgusting evidence and listen to the victims that you didnt do it. I’m sure that’ll get you a light sentence.
Light as in AC current, if only.
He should only come out of prison feet-first in a box.
To Hades with him, and his supporters and the Penn State worshiping sycophants here.
State Pen Prezzy (and noted wife-swapping studies scholar) Spanier made him do it.
Perfect. Judges love it when convicts show zero remorse at sentencing.
PA Ping!
