Jerry Sandusky Was Termed a "Likely Pedophile" in 1998 Penn State Police Report

Dr. Alycia A. Chambers was a therapist for “Victim 6.” Here is her description of the incident in the shower.

"Chambers described in her written report how Sandusky had coaxed the boy into the shower after a workout, telling him, “All the guys do.” He then moved closer to him, squeezing him tightly from behind while they were both naked. The boy also told Chambers how, during their workout, Sandusky had kissed him on the forehead and told him, ‘I love you.” He also invited the boy back to his house to “sit on his lap” and go “online” on his “cool computer,” the boy’s mother told Chambers, recounting her conversation with her son the previous night."

Here is her assessment of Sandusky.

"“My consultants agree that the incidents meet all of our definitions, based on experience and education, of a likely pedophile’s pattern of building trust and gradual introduction of physical touch, within a context of a ‘loving,’ ‘special’ relationship,” Chambers wrote in her report. “One colleague, who has contact with the Second Mile, confirms that Mr. Sandusky is reasonably intelligent and thus, could hardly have failed to understand the way his behavior would be interpreted, if known,” Chambers continued. “His position at the Second Mile and his interest in abused boys would suggest that he was likely to have had knowledge with regard to child abuse and might even recognize this behavior as a typical pedophile ‘overture.’”"

The second psychologist, from an agency that had approved Sandusky as a foster parent, disagreed with the assessment because he “hadn’t heard of a 52-year-old becoming a pedophile,” though he acknowledged “gray areas” and told investigators “not to walk away from the investigation.”

The case was closed and Sandusky was not placed on Pennsylvania’s watch list for suspected child abusers.
