UPDATE: 4th alleged Sandusky victim takes stand at trial

Posted:

BELLEFONTE, Pa. (WKOW) -- The fourth alleged victim to testify at Jerry Sandusky's trial says he endured sexual abuse at the hands of the former Penn State assistant football coach but only told his parents of the assaults last year when interviewed by police.

The now-27-year-old man told jurors Wednesday that he met Sandusky through his Second Mile charity. The accuser also testified that had more personal contact with Sandusky after attending a Penn State home game with the coach's family.

The accuser says Sandusky was "wrapping himself around me, holding me tightly" when he slept over at his house. He described showering with Sandusky on a number of occasions and says Sandusky touched him beneath his clothes.

Earlier Wednesday, another alleged victim said Sandusky told him he'd never see his family again if he told anyone about their sexual contact.

BELLEFONTE, Pa. (WKOW) -- Prosecutors are set to present more witnesses at Jerry Sandusky's child sex abuse trial on Wednesday. Day 3 follows two days of graphic testimony about alleged abuse by the former Penn State assistant football coach.

The father former Penn State assistant Mike McQueary went into the courthouse through the entrance used by witnesses Wednesday morning. A day earlier, his son recounted hearing "slapping noises" and seeing Sandusky standing behind a boy in a Penn State shower in 2001.

Sandusky arrived a little later, helping his attorney carry boxes and files into the courthouse.

Two of Sandusky's accusers have already testified in the case, leaving six more expected to take the stand. The identities of two of Sandusky's alleged victims remain unknown.

Sandusky faces a total of 52 criminal counts. He maintains his innocence.
