Settlement reached in Penn State-Sandusky scandal

The paper reported the deal is the first of 26 settlements expected soon among 31 young men who have pressed claims over Sandusky’s actions and the school’s response.

Kline told the AP that as part of the agreement, his client assigned his claim to Penn State, effectively giving the university a better chance to recover the money from other parties, such as The Second Mile, a charity for at-risk youth that Sandusky founded.

University officials “left themselves a wide open road to recover a significant amount of this money back from their insurers and Second Mile. And we support that,” Kline said.
