Convicted sex offender Jerry Sandusky is remorseless in his first interview from behind bars
BY KATIE MCDONOUGH

In an interview that aired Monday on “The Today Show,” convicted child sex offender and former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky laughed off and disputed witness testimony from former assistant coach Mike McQueary, who said that he heard sounds “of a sexual nature” coming from a campus locker room where Sandusky was alone with a 10-year-old boy.

Sandusky also said that former Penn State head coach Joe Paterno would not have let him coach if he believed he was a pedophile: “If he (Paterno) absolutely thought I was (a pedophile), I’d say no. If he had a suspicion, I don’t know the answer to that.”

Of McQueary’s allegations, Sandusky said:

I don’t understand how anybody would have walked into that locker room from where he was and heard sounds associated that was sex going on like he said that could’ve been. I mean, that would have been the last thing I would have thought about. I would have thought maybe fooling around or something like that.
