On Thursday, prosecutors concluded witness testimony for the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse trial and Howard Janet, the attorney for alleged “Victim 6″ spoke with Piers Morgan about the day’s events.
Alleged Victim 6 testified about the incident in 1998 that triggered a police investigation. During the cross-examination, it was revealed that the witness had kept in contact with Sandusky. Morgan inquired about the impact of this revelation asking, “How do you explain that with a jury sitting there, maybe quizzical about why your client would do that?”
“Because these kids, now young men, to the extent they’re able to do it, create a bit of a Chinese wall in their mind,” explained Janet. “In reality, when you’re dealing with someone who is – as Sandusky is being portrayed to be- a serial child abuser, you’re talking about somebody who is successful at it because they’re successful at manipulating people.”
