Jerry Sandusky Moved to Prison Housing Death Row Inmates (Solitary For Life) [View all]

Convicted pedophile Jerry Sandusky essentially will spend the rest of his life in solitary confinement.

Sandusky, 68, was transferred today to a maximum-security state prison in southwestern Pennsylvania where he will be confined to his cell for all but one hour a day as he serves his 30-to-60-year sentence.

The former Penn State football coach will be in “protective custody” at State Correctional Institution at Greene, which is outside Waynesburg, Greene County, and houses many of the state’s death-row inmates.

Prison officials assigned Sandusky to restricted housing like this out of concern for his safety from other inmates.
