The lawyer for accused child molester Jerry Sandusky apparently likes his women young.
Defense attorney Joe Amendola, 63, representing Sandusky in the sexual molestation case roiling Penn State and Joe Paterno’s legendary football program, impregnated a teenager and later married her, The Daily has learned.
According to documents filed with Centre County Courthouse, Amendola served as the attorney for Mary Iavasile’s emancipation petition on Sept. 3, 1996, just weeks before her 17th birthday.
...
He was born in 1948 and was around 49 at the time.
“At the time, I didn’t know the extent of the relationship,” said Janet of when her daughter first began spending time with the attorney. Amendola seemed more like Mary’s “mentor,” she added.
“She met him through the school district; she was interested in the law,” Janet said.
Derp
Wow. So maybe the attorney let Sandusky go on national television with Bob Costas (who, BTW, put pretty much every political journalist to shame by demonstrating how a real interview is done) so the attorney could make himself feel better?
Who would have thought that Bob Costas was a *real, honest-to-gods* journalist? I was extremely impressed.
I think that Sandusky needs another lawyer.
I take it you never saw his short lived late, late show. No audience, great interviews, laughing with the crew like Tom Snyder used to do. It was great. So of course it didn’t last.
