Disturbing news has come out from the adopted son of former Penn State defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky, as 41-year-old Jeffrey Sandusky has been arrested on charges of sexual assault of a child in Pennsylvania.

Pennsylvania state police have been investigating Jeffrey since November of 2016, according to Mallory Lane of WTAJ. Police were tipped off after Jeffrey Sandusky reportedly asked a child for naked photographs via text message. Jeffrey Sandusky was dating the mother of the child.

Upon learning of the texts, the father of the child alerted the police. According to the report, at least one other child has been abused by Jeffrey Sandusky per criminal complaint. Sandusky’s bail was set for $200,000 and he is prohibited from interacting with minors.
