Judge Who Set Unsecured Bail For Jerry Sandusky Is a Second Mile Volunteer
When Jerry Sandusky was initially arraigned, as previously reported by Sara Ganim, prosecutors requested $500,000.00 bail and that Sandusky be required to wear a leg monitor. District Judge Leslie Dutchcot, however, ordered that Sandusky be freed on $100,000.00 unsecured bail. She ordered that Sandusky be freed and pay nothing unless he failed to show up for a court hearing.

This is troubling, what was the judge thinking by not coming forward with the info that she was a volunteer with Second Mile? Surely that looks bad on her part in light of the low bail and lack of monitoring device requested by prosecution....again, not an indication of guilt but sure seems like she was bitten by a stupid bug...why put yourself in the position of having your integrity questioned? Stuff like this just adds to the media feeding frenzy. I think she owes the public an explanation and hopefully she will come forward with same.
