Sandusky can have contact with grandchildren

NCAA Football Betting Lines

02/13/2012 - Bellefonte, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former Penn State assistant coach Jerry Sandusky can have contact with most of his grandchildren and will have a local jury when his child sex abuse trial begins in May.

Sandusky is under electronic monitoring pending trial on 52 counts of felony and misdemeanor sexual offenses against children. He has denied the charges that he systematically abused children, using his Second Mile charity to groom potential victims.

Judge John M. Cleland also ruled Monday that prosecutors must turn over the time, date and location of any offense, as well as the exact age of the alleged victim on the date of such offense. The judge denied a defense motion requesting prosecutors to specify the particular acts alleged against Sandusky.

Prosecutors had asked for conditions of Sandusky's bail to be modified, preventing him from having visitation rights from his grandchildren and preventing him from having visits from other adults.

Judge Cleland denied that motion with conditions, saying Sandusky's grandchildren can visit, with the exception of three who are the subject of an ongoing child custody litigation. Also, one of the grandchildren's parents must be present during visitations.

Sandusky can also have adult visitors, but must provide a list of up to 12 who will then be subject to approval by officials overseeing the electronic monitoring program. He can also leave his home, with 36 hours advance notice, to assist his defense team in trial preparations.

Prosecutors had also asked for a jury to be selected from out of the Centre County area, a motion Judge Cleland denied.

"It is certainly obvious, however, that jury selection will present its challenges and if, after a reasonable attempt it is apparent that a jury cannot be selected within a reasonable time, then I will reconsider this ruling," Judge Cleland wrote.

Sandusky's defense team was unable to sway the judge into forcing prosecutors to disclose the names, addresses and dates of birth of witnesses. They were also denied an early release of grand jury testimony.

MySportsbook.com: NBA Championship Odds

With the playoffs about two months away, the top two teams in the Western Conference are the clear cut leaders to win the NBA Championship. The Dallas Mavericks have the best record in the NBA (44-9) and have been absolutely scorching since the second week of the season.  What makes the Mavs’ record more impressive is the fact that they dropped their first four games of the season.  Currently they have won 17 out of their last 18 and are MySportsbook.com’s favorite (2-1) to win it all.  Right behind the Mavs are the Pacific leading Phoenix Suns (39-13).  Last season, the Suns lost in the Conference Finals to non-other then the Mavericks four games to two.  Of course the Suns were without center Amare Stoudemire who has is averaging 19.9 PPG and 9.5 RPG since coming back from his knee injury.  Unlike the Mavs, the Suns have struggled a bit lately having lost their last three and four out of their last seven.  Of course the main reason for their three straight loses is due to the absence of two time MVP Steve Nash, who is out with a shoulder injury.  Heads-up, the Mavs have beaten the Suns in both of their meetings this season.

In the Eastern Conference, the Pistons (32-19) are the favorites to win it all at 6-1. The addition of Chris Webber seems to have been a good move for the Pistons.  Since coming over from the 76ers, Webber has averaged 13.1 PPG and 7.3 RPG and the Pistons are 11-4.  Even though the defending champion Heat are currently on the playoff making cusp, they are the Eastern Conference team that is getting the most action to win it all (9-1).  The fact that Shaquille O’Neal is back in the starting lineup after missing 39 games probably has something to do with this.  No doubt, Shaq makes a difference when in the lineup as their winning six out of their last seven would indicate.
