	Penn State's Jerry Sandusky "Enjoyed Being around Children': Interview New York Post November 14, 2011 http://www.nypost.com/p/news/national/jerry_sandusky_once_said_he_enjoyed_dNju9FIYtyUBDwI0ZBTKjM#ixzz1diLlfNtB Of course, Sandusky's comments now have a chilling connotation to them after he was recently arrested for molesting eight boys and charged with 40 counts in connection with a string of sex abuse claims dating back 13 years. "Everybody needs people to care for them. ... Kids are growing up awfully fast these days," Sandusky said in that same interview when asked about his charity work with troubled kids. In 1997, ten years after that NBC interview, Sandusky was first accused of showering with and fondling a boy at Penn State. No charges were filed at the time and a year later Sandusky retired as an assistant coach to spend more time with his Second Mile charity. This comes as the president of the charity linked to Sandusky resigned today, saying he hopes his departure after 28 years as the group's CEO would help restore faith in its mission. The Second Mile's board of directors said in a statement it had accepted the resignation of Jack Raykovitz. Raykovitz, a psychologist, had testified before the grand jury that indicted Sandusky. The grand jury said Sandusky found his victims through the charity's programs. The board also said that would conduct an internal investigation to assess policies and make recommendations regarding future operations. Raykovitz said in a statement that he hopes his resignation would mark the beginning of a "restoration of faith in the community of volunteers and staff" at The Second Mile. Sandusky founded The Second Mile in 1977. The group has said that its youth programs serve as many as 100,000 children a year.
