Whoa! Sandusky admits in this Bob Costas interview “… I didn’t go around seeking out every young person for sexual needs that I helped.” He goes onto state “There are many I didn’t have, I hardly had any contact with who I have helped in many, many ways.”
The T-Room isn’t clear if this portion of the interview was redacted when the original aired. We are looking into it and will provide an update.

THE FULL TRANSCRIPT: Bob Costas interview with Joe Amendola and Jerry Sandusky
By NBC’s Rock Center
CORRESPONDENT: BOB COSTAS
BOB COSTAS:
18:54:31:00 Mr. Sandusky, there’s a 40-count indictment. The grand jury report contains specific detail. There are multiple accusers, multiple eyewitnesses to various aspects of the abuse. A reasonable person says where there’s this much smoke, there must be plenty of fire. What do you say?
JERRY SANDUSKY:
18:54:50:00 I say that I am innocent of those charges.
BOB COSTAS:
18:54:55:00 Innocent? Completely innocent and falsely accused in every aspect?
JERRY SANDUSKY:
18:55:00:00 Well I could say that, you know, I have done some of those things. I have horsed around with kids. I — I have showered after workouts. I — I have hugged them and I — I have touched their leg. Without intent of sexual contact. But — so if — if you look at it that way — there are things that — that — wouldn’t — you know, would be accurate.
BOB COSTAS:
18:55:33:00 Are you denying that you had any inappropriate sexual contact with any of these underage boys?
JERRY SANDUSKY:
18:55:36:00 Yes, I — yes I am.
BOB COSTAS:
18:55:40:00 Never touched their genitals? Never engaged in oral sex?
