Sandusky to be sentenced Oct. 9

Former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky is scheduled to be sentenced Oct. 9 for his conviction on 45 counts of child sex abuse, according to USA Today.

Sandusky, 68, faces life in prison.

Pennsylvania Judge John Cleland set the sentencing on Monday. He said he would determine if Sandusky should be classified as a sexually violent predator.

The classification would subject Sandusky to more extensive supervision if he is ever released from prison but his lawyer expects him to be sentenced to life.
