(AP) HARRISBURG, Pa. — A young man who testified against Jerry Sandusky sued Penn State on Friday for its “deliberate and shameful” handling of complaints that the former assistant football coach behaved inappropriately and sexually toward boys.
The suit filed by the person known as Victim 1 at Sandusky’s trial said university officials made deliberate decisions not to report Sandusky to authorities.
It described their actions as “a function of (Penn State’s) purposeful, deliberate and shameful subordination of the safety of children to its economic self-interests, and to its interest in maintaining and perpetuating its reputation.”
