BELLEFONTE, Pa. — Jurors in Jerry Sandusky’s trial are hearing about the alleged sexual abuse of a boy whose identity is unknown to prosecutors.
The testimony began Wednesday afternoon after the judge ruled that co-workers can tell the jurors about what a janitor reported seeing in the Penn State showers.
The janitor, Jim Calhoun, has dementia and isn’t able to take the stand.
Ron Petrosky says that when he encountered Calhoun in a football team locker room more than a decade ago, the janitor told him he’d seen Sandusky making a boy perform oral sex on him.
Petrosky says Calhoun’s face was white and his hands were trembling.
The 68-year-old Sandusky, a former Penn State assistant football coach, is fighting 52 criminal counts for alleged abuse of 10 boys over 15 years.
