Penn State trustee 'running out of sympathy' for 'so-called' Jerry Sandusky victims

A current trustee at Penn State said in an email to The Chronicle of Higher Education that he is losing sympathy for the "so-called victims" of sexual abuse by former Nittany Lions assistant Jerry Sandusky.

The email was sent to The Chronicle over the weekend and published Thursday as part of a look at the scandal's continuing aftermath.

Last week, former Penn State president Graham Spanier was found guilty of one count of child endangerment over his handling of a child sex abuse complaint against Sandusky.

The next day, trustee Albert L. Lord emailed The Chronicle:

"Running out of sympathy for 35 yr old, so-called victims with 7 digit net worth," Lord said.
