He was victim #1. Had they believed him they could have saved dozens of other kids from this monster!

Imagine the courage as a teenage boy that would take, he must have felt so much shame and pain and conflict within himself. This boy is what a real man looks like, it takes guts and character to do what he did, his mother should be more proud of him then ever, raised a hero in a society of filled with cowards like that principle and assistant coach.

I was molested at 9 yrs of age. I felt weird and disgusted for many yrs. But getting counseling help me. It showed me it wasn’t my fault. I was a child a dirty older adult was the problem. Please anyone out there who’s been violated, please come forward.

I consider this young Hero to be an admirable person and one worthy of respect. I also respect his Mother who didn't back down to the school when they subtly threatened her to keep quiet. I think the principal who didn't follow the law with the mandatory reporting should be fired and her educator's license revoked forevermore. And I thank Chris Cuomo for doing this report.

The monster is in jail for life.but he ruined many lives

Poor little guy victim number 1...How sad they didn't believe him yes " Hero number 1."

So you had suspicions, but you lead the lamb straight to the wolf's den .

Wow imagine how many of the kids could have been saved from the same horrific torture and sexual abuse that this boy was subjected to if people would have listened to him and stop these monsters

Why would a grow man want to have a sleep over with a child !?

So happy men are finally speaking out about this!!!

Wow and parents didn't wonder why a grown man had sleep overs at his house? For that matter what of Sandusky's wife? She had to suspect something. This man is so horrible...glad this brave young man came forth.

He looks pretty fragile 😔

The law was useless. Then they wonder why people take matters into their own hands at times

Not one officer, police case worker, judge, or state worker was fired over the years of refusing to pursue the allegations!

I am glad he had the courage to speak out, the conflicts he had were astronomical, I'm glad his mom believed him and had the courage to fight the corrupt system that exists in schools and sports, which continue to this day, to cover up sexual assault and rape of young people by those entrusted with their well-being. This young man is a great example for all those in similar situations to follow!

The principal and the teaching staff also have a responsibility of being a child abuse reporters mandated reporters so why are they not in jail for not reporting

Disgusting these people should be locked up forever and rot in hell

Going public was the bravest thing to do. I believe you and it was a crime. You have nothing to be ashamed of and all that knew should be in jail themselves. For the jail you live in do to the abuse. you suffered.

How did this end?

Omg... it's horrible, just pure Evil.

Very Brave Young Man

Some people believes male victims don't suffer as much as female victims.

Parents? Where were the parents?

It's like if you go to the police they will dismiss your case.

So sorry for what this young man had to endured from that old man lock up in jail.

I'm a gay man and Sandusky needs to go under the jail-I would prefer the death penalty. A sickening excuse for a human being. All the people that helped and enabled him-sickening.

BRAVO, to you!

What has being an Icon for something unrelated got to do with believing someone concerning a different aspect of their life? Does celebrity status change the law of human behaviour and conduct to excuse not at least finding out. Protecting anyone based on status is a temptation to use that status to do bad things. It is no co-incidence that many celebrities fall foul of this weakness and inexcusable advantage to have other people treated with lesser value. and take advantage of it. The number of cases alone make it a fact not a conspiracy or speculation. Imagine government officials with even greater protection, what could they or would they not do.

This is much more widespread than public knowledge is willing to stomach.

PARENTS DONT LET KIDS SLEEP OVER AT ADULTS HOME. CHARGE PARENTS TO

HERO NUMBER 1

Sleep overs?? At an adults home??? WHY???????????

What a real life monster.

I’m just starting my path to freedom from surviving child sexual abuse. It’s a stereotypical story. Member of the family. Trusted...Etc. It went on for years. I was groomed. The person who did this...normalized it. I felt responsible. I, only until recently, felt like it was my fault. Now, looking back, I see I was groomed and basically shaped into what he wanted. I’m currently so confused. I’m experiencing emotions I’ve never felt before that are terrifying and cold. I’m angry at myself because it was my responsibility to speak up. I kept silent out of desperation because, just a year before he started molesting and raping me, my other brother past away. I was scared of losing more family members. More pain. It started when I was nine. I’m watching videos about this because, I honestly don’t know what to do or how to do it. I’m scared of opening up. I’m experiencing intense emotions over this. I’ve cried. Threw stuff. How could I be so oblivious. How could, or better yet, WHY DID I ALLOW THIS? I think I know but is that really right? I’m so confused. For all my life after the sexual abuse started, most of the times if someone touches me unexpectedly, I jump instinctively. Just a pat on the back, or a hand on the shoulder. I thought it was a result of just being jumpy. Now I’m realizing, it’s because when someone innocently touches me, I jump and am startled because my body expects trauma. I hate that about me. I hate me. It’s going to be so difficult.

This is the saddest thing

I'm sorry what you've gone through. Be strong

wow....

That a sick old man

Theres a man in congress who knew this was happening and did nothing....

It's fully sick. Feel bad for him hope it opens people eyes to know it's not only happening to women men too wish I had the power to stop this from happening to anyone.

this is sad. i know this guy quite well.

Who are these kids parents?

As the man (Gen 1:26-28) KJV, a husband (Gen 2:21-25) and a father (Gen 3:16), the minister of God (Rom 13), teacher (Eph 4) and one of the survivors who was bullied in school, I am so sorry this happened to you. If I could have protected you from being harmed by "it", I would have, but I can not be everywhere all at once. (1 John 4)

Well, tell him that he is a hero for me ... hopefully that horrid principal will be fired.

Why is the money that Sandusky made from sales of his books not being given to the victims of the abuse he has been convicted of engaging in?

When they told her "to go home and think about it," They KNEW EXACTLY What he was doing.

Those poor boys

We constantly let our " special people" Gods if you will... do whatever they want ! It will always be this way. It's always been that way.

This makes me angrier than an alter boy at a Jerry Sandusky fundraiser...

Penn State should be permanently banned from intermural collegiate sport competition.

Back when Chris Cuomo actually reported the news :( I miss him

im glad people like him are coming out ...

He and his mom are heroes. By the way, everyone should call person whom sexually harassed 'survivor' instead of 'victim'.

Funny how they had Chris Cuomo do this interview. How times have changed!

I was at this Penn State campus when this happened. The university and local police protect their own.

Are you making this comment with any evidence that the man is now a homosexual? If not I'm truly appalled that you would victimize him again this way.

In class 12th .. I was going to my physics tuition classes ...there was jam on road( almost 100 people's with some vehicles also) when the jam opens up people's of both way hurry a middle class boy(age like 24) come with his cycle and a girl(like 18 or 19) with a black mask on her face. The cycle tire touches her pant and a little mud got on her pants ... she immediately SLAPS him multiple time ..he kept his hands on his face and go to another way( and 100s of people were watching) not a single person step up... after 5 min an old person come near him .... he was standing near a pole...then I also came from there to my tuition ( when I told this my friends they show no response).... I don't know what men feels but why don't our women step forward to protect our men( i know they want... no one is weak) MEN ALSO NEED HELP!! Because I can't find many videos on men molestation as youtube is MALE dominating..... I wrote it there...

Why are we talking about stuff like this so much and not the real rape that happens in the military every day? Tbose men are completely helpless. Some of them are only 18 and are raped but can't go to anyone for help because nobody will do anything about it. If a kid is raped he or she can easily call the police or something and then be saved. The ones in the military never get any help at all. Plus this happened a long time ago. If people would focus on what's happening now, maybe things would get better. Everyone is stuck in the past.

If I was the principal I would believe that kid because it could happen to any kid

This is crazy and horrible

Terrible glad he spoke up for himself

Sounds like he really enjoyed it

Don’t mess with my toot toot. 🎶🎶

The other coaches assisted are guilty too

Some ppl defend sandusky on social media platforms. Sickos.

I hope they sued the shit out of that school, that principal should be jailed and stripped of his pension.

As a father I can only imagine the hurt in my child's eyes. Honestly dude wouldn't have made it to court because he would've been killed.

Why didnt the coach who walked in on sandusky and a poor kid, go to the police?. He saw his superiors did nothing. Go to kid's mom, go to police. I would think kids would have stomach aches, and refuse to go to camp & games. In that day and age mothers should have talked to their kids about bad touch & tell. This wasnt the 1940s. It was 80s- the 90s. We knew about chomos then. Im not blaming the kids but adults.

of course they don't believe you you're a grown as man at this point.

ABC News' Fredo sits down with victim 1 to discuss the Sandusky trial and torment.

more evidence? men see rape as being weak so why would a man or boy lie about that? any jury who hears this would convict

One wonders who the seducer really was. I firmly believe that a minor cannot consent to a carnal act. That said, this victim is obviously gay.

Reminds me of the movie mysterious skin.

Things chomos say: this was my first time... I just wanted to talk... And please turn the camera off...

The prosecutor should be charged and I guarantee the coach was in on it

Why would his parents permit this to happen?

Stunning... poor choice of word

1:45 Can wonky-eyed people see well?

But, but, but,.........it's football!

by more evidence they mean more victims ?

I thought it was Tosh 2.0 and going to be a comedy skit. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Law Abiding Citizen.

I stood up to a man in work who repeatedly tried to be inappropriate and touch me, out of everyone who saw the incident that happened one day when he cursed me out no one wanted to be my witness or to help me often that is how it is when u initially stand up for the truth and justice you stand alone and unbelieved.

Complimenting your looks while seeking some well being

W. African parents response to sleep overs: No

Sandusky should of got a death sentence...Sandusky Is An Evil Evil Man😠😭😠

Too bad they don't do in depth human interests stories like this on World News anymore! It's now all fluff, B.S. and Trump!

They even hired hitman on me named terry when I 9 they shot our suv

i guess you do not know what happens to child molesters in jail :) i worked as a counsellor, and helped youth in the court system who were molested as children :) lets just say in jail...its an eye for an eye-no one hates criminals who are child molesters know more than the criminals themselves who have been locked up for a long time

Lord i pray this never happens to my son cause I’m going to prison for capital murder!!! God bless this man who’s innocence was stolen by a predator & had the courage to tell his story on national TV

AOT fans only heard rumblings

They gon have to kill me

Sleep overs, where were the dam parents.

Disgusting

I forgive as if reality isn't reality

🤔.... hey Fredo... gonna investigate your brother next?? Does he get a pass cuz he’s “bigger” than Coach Creep?? You’re the weak brother Fredo... you know it... the world knows it. 🇺🇸🇺🇸 #NoMasks

People in power do what they want

It's a big red flag when a grown man is having sleep overs with boys. I never let my sons spend the night anyone's house.

Poor boy I hope he is ok today

Lmmfao all Romans doing 😂😂😂😂 greeks never did this shit now I see , if they are gods why do they still live myths don't live hmmmmm🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 .... if he's a god why didn't he see that coming ,sorry for ya..😎😎😎
