Disgraced Former Penn State DC Jerry Sandusky (convicted child molester)

Sandusky's wife: Husband innocent; victims manipulated over money

The wife of former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky says she "definitely" believes her husband is innocent despite being convicted of sexually abusing 10 boys and that the victims' financial gain was at play.

Dottie Sandusky said in an interview broadcast Wednesday on NBC's "Today" show that "there was nothing that went on because I was here" in the couple's small home in State College, Pa., where some of the victims reported being abused in the basement.

Although one accuser said his muffled screams went unheard by her upstairs, Sandusky heard nothing "because he didn't scream," she said after giving interviewer Matt Lauer a tour of the house. "It's not a dungeon," she noted of the basement.

She denied any suggestion that she was a "weak spouse" who enabled her husband and said she believes his accusers had been manipulated.

"I think it was, they were manipulated, and they saw money," she said. "Once lawyers came into the case, they said there was money."

Follow up question for Dottie: "Even without hearing audible screams, do you think it's normal for old men to spend extended periods of time alone with unrelated young boys in a basement? How often did you check on your husband's activity when he brought unrelated young boys to your house and proceeded to take them into your basement for alone time?"

Jerry Sandusky Son Discusses Alleged Sexual Abuse

An adopted son of convicted child molester Jerry Sandusky is providing details of the alleged sexual abuse he suffered at the hands of his father.

Matt Sandusky, who was initially a foster child of the Sanduskys, tells Oprah Winfrey in a TV show airing Thursday night that his overnight visits with the family as a child were good "except for one part, bedtime."

At bedtime in the Sandusky's home in State College, he said, Jerry Sandusky's "ritual began."

"The overnight visits were -- they were good. I mean, except for that one part, bedtime. Bedtime was the bad part. But any other time that we were in the home, that we were doing anything in the home with the family, it was fine and it was -- again, you would look at that family and you would say, wow. Like I wish that I had brothers and sisters that cared about me. I wish that I had a mother who cooked dinner every night for the whole family. I wish that I had all of these things. But then at bedtime, his ritual began," Matt Sandusky told Winfrey in a brief clip released by the network.

The network said Sandusky discusses the grooming, methodical control and manipulation he faced as a child.

He had also discussed the alleged abuse in a documentary, "Happy Valley," shown earlier this year, and in an audiotape of a 29-minute interview with police detectives that NBC obtained at the time of Jerry Sandusky's 2012 trial.

Matt Sandusky told investigators Jerry Sandusky had rubbed along or against his genitals. He said then that he did not recall any penetration or oral sex, and that memories were coming back to him.

He said he was coming forward at that time because he had told a different story to an investigative grand jury and wanted to correct the record.

"So that they can really have closure and see what the truth actually is. And just to right the wrong, honestly, of going to the grand jury and lying," Matt Sandusky said two years ago. He was not called to testify, and Jerry Sandusky has not been charged with any crime in relation to his adopted son.
