Some of these letters were said to be sent to some of his sexual abuse victims.<\/p>\n<p>CBS News has learned that at the end of 2011, allegations were forward by the U.S. Attorney for the Middle District of Pennsylvania. that Sandusky used the mails to seduce individuals to cross state lines for sexual purposes, with trips and gifts offered. Investigators are looking at 6-7 victims who might have gotten letters.<\/p>\n<p>Also in March of this year, U.S. Postal inspectors were tasked to investigate The Second Mile charity, which was founded by Sandusky. That investigation is on hold, awaiting for documents to be released by the State Attorney.<\/p>\n<p>A source has been told that child pornography was found in at least one of Sandusky&#8217;s computers. According to the source, there is no evidence that the pornography was of his victims. There is also no mention of a ring or sharing of boys with others. CBS News investigative producer Pat Milton reports that a second source said that none of Sandusky&#8217;s victims have indicated that there was shared sex with them, Sandusky and any other individual. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/feds-probe-possible-sandusky-child-porn-ring\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here<\/a> to continue reading.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Permanent Link to Sandusky Convicted of Child Sex Abuse \u2013 Lighthouse Trails To Address Issue of Child Abuse in New Book\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lighthousetrailsresearch.com\/blog\/?p=9487\" rel=\"bookmark\">Sandusky Convicted of Child Sex Abuse \u2013 Lighthouse Trails To Address Issue of Child Abuse in New Book <\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Permanent Link to Child Sex Abuse \u2013 Can We Ignore It?\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lighthousetrailsresearch.com\/blog\/?p=7279\" rel=\"bookmark\">Child Sex Abuse \u2013 Can We Ignore It? <\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Permanent Link to Mental Health Group Looks to Remove Stigma From Pedophilia \u2013 American Psychological Association\u2019s Role in These Efforts\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lighthousetrailsresearch.com\/blog\/?p=7253\" rel=\"bookmark\">Mental Health Group Looks to Remove Stigma From Pedophilia \u2013 American Psychological Association\u2019s Role in These Efforts <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Samantha Anderson CBS\/AP Analyzing&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3746,17,179,45],"tags":[953,1396,1397,2936,876],"class_list":["post-9756","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-pornographysexual-abuse","category-children-at-risk","category-child-abuse","category-signs-of-the-times","tag-child-sex-abuse","tag-sandusky","tag-penn-state","tag-child-abuse","tag-sexual-abuse","wpcat-3746-id","wpcat-17-id","wpcat-179-id","wpcat-45-id"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.4 (Yoast SEO v28.4) -
