Sandusky Trial Braced for Opening Statements The trial of accused child molester Jerry Sandusky opens today after four years of investigations and headlines that cost Penn State its president as well as its legendary football coach Joe Paterno. Sandusky, 68, faces 52 counts of molestation from 10 alleged victims, eight of whom are expected to testify during his trial. Two of the alleged victims have never been located or identified by the attorney general's office. The identity of the others will be revealed for the first time during their testimony. Opening statements are expected to begin this morning before a jury of seven women and five men. Sandusky has pleaded not guilty to the charges. One of the first witnesses to testify is expected to be Victim 4, who is now 28, and whose testimony will be backed up by "creepy" love letters Sandusky allegedly sent to the boy. He will also show the gifts, including a set of golf clubs, that Sandusky allegedly gave him during their relationship. Five of the victims have asked that they be allowed to remain anonymous, a request that the judge rejected. But ABC News has a policy of not identifying victims of possible sex crimes, and will withhold the names of the victims as they testify. The investigation began in 2008 when a high school student in Centre County, Pa., told his mother and school administrators that Sandusky had molested him, launching a widespread but secretive effort to interview dozens of boys Sandusky mentored through his charity, The Second Mile, as well as Penn State officials who may have seen or heard about inappropriate actions. Charges of child sex abuse were brought against Sandusky on Nov. 4, 2011, igniting a firestorm of scandal around the prestigious football program that led to the dismissal of the university's president and Paterno, and criminal charges against two school officials. Despite the large number of charges and complainants, two of the alleged victims have never been found and there are problems with key witnesses. Some experts believe the prosecution faces obstacles in winning a conviction.
