HARRISBURG, Pa. -- Lawyers for three former Penn State administrators asked an appeals court Tuesday to throw out some or all of the charges against them, arguing their right to legal representation was violated during secret grand jury proceedings.
In a set of three arguments before a three-judge Superior Court panel, the defendants' attorneys said there were several problems with the process that resulted in their clients being charged with covering up child sex abuse complaints about Jerry Sandusky, a former assistant football coach under Joe Paterno who is serving up to 60 years in prison.
