'Why we had no doubt Jerry Sandusky was guilty': Juror lifts the lid on sensational verdict as ex-Penn State coach faces dying in jail for 45 child sex crimes
By Daily Mail Reporter
A juror in the trial of Jerry Sandusky, who was yesterday convicted of 45 counts of child sexual abuse, has told how the ex-Penn State football coach's reaction to the verdict confirmed his guilt.
Joshua Harper told TODAY that Sandusky's facial expression during his sentencing was proof that the jury had made the right decision.
'That was just confirmation, again,' the juror said. 'I looked at him during the reading of the verdict and just the look on his face, no real emotion, just kind of accepting, you know, because he knew it was true.'
Jerry Sandusky was last night found guilty of sexually abusing young boys while he was an assistant coach of the Penn State football team. He was convicted of 45 of the counts against him, and acquitted of a further three.
Sandusky, who is now headed to jail where he will be placed on suicide watch, could face a total sentence of up to 442 years in prison.
Jurors were sequestered for just two days while they deliberated the verdict.
But Harper told TODAY how jurors were 'on the same page' during deliberations. 'We really worked together very well and we were patient and we gave time,' he said.
Harper added that finding out Sandusky's son, Matt Sandusky, was prepared to take to the stand to testify against his father was further proof of his guilt.
