Defense counsel for former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky rested their case Wednesday without their client taking the stand. The move answered one of the trial’s most speculated-upon questions: whether the jury would hear the ex-coach deny the charges against him in his own words.
The defense started its third day, and the seventh day of the trial, with testimony from a family friend of former graduate assistant Mike McQueary who was with McQueary on the night he claims to have seen Sandusky rape a boy in a Penn State locker room shower in 2001. The witness, Dr. Jonathan Dranov, testified in open court that McQueary did not say he had seen sexual activity on that occasion.
