Sandusky scandal has cost Penn State $16.8 million, so far

(MCT) — It has cost Penn State almost $17 million in fees alone to deal with the fallout from the Jerry Sandusky child sex-abuse scandal, and the tab is expected to grow by tens of millions of dollars before the meter stops clicking.

Sandusky, who is reportedly writing a book while in jail awaiting sentencing on 45 charges that he sexually abused boys, is a former defensive football coach at Penn State. Some of the abuse took place in the shower room of the university’s football training facility, where Sandusky would take boys who were clients of the charity he started.
