Sandusky to be sentenced Oct. 9 in sex-abuse case

There's little doubt that Jerry Sandusky faces a long prison sentence. In a few weeks, he'll find out how just how long.

A judge announced Monday he will sentence Sandusky on Oct. 9, nearly four months after the retired assistant football coach was convicted in the child molestation scandal that brought shame to Penn State.

Sandusky was convicted in June of 45 counts of sex abuse involving 10 boys. Prosecutors said some of the assaults took place on the Penn State campus.
