[naviga:h3]Sandusky’s son pleads to sex abuse[/naviga:h3]

BELLEFONTE — A son of former Penn State University assistant coach Jerry Sandusky has pleaded guilty pressuring a teenage girl to send him naked photos and asking her teen sister to give him oral sex.

Friday’s plea deal comes one week before Jeffrey Sandusky’s trial on 14 counts, including solicitation of statutory sexual assault.

As part of the deal, 41-year-old Sandusky will spend up to six years in state prison, but the judge could impose as much as eight years.

One of six adopted children of Jerry Sandusky, Jeffrey Sandusky has been a stalwart supporter of his father, who is serving a lengthy prison sentence for sexual abuse of 10 boys.
