HARRISBURG, Pa. -- Jerry Sandusky won't get a fresh chance to argue in state court he should get a new trial, seven years after the former Penn State assistant football coach was convicted of molesting 10 boys.
Pennsylvania's Supreme Court on Wednesday turned down Sandusky's request that it review a Superior Court decision earlier this year rejecting most of his arguments.
His lawyer says he was surprised and disappointed by the justices' decision.
"We're very disappointed. We were very hopeful the Supreme Court would hear our appeal, because it's a very strong appeal," Sandusky defense attorney Al Lindsay said.
