Jerry Sandusky Memoir Attacked on Amazon

By Dianna Dilworth 

After sexual molestation accusations against former Penn State assistant coach Jerry Sandusky came out this week, Amazon users are up in arms about the name of his 2001 book.

Despite the fact that Sandusky’s book is no longer available in print, Touched: The Jerry Sandusky Story has gotten 30 one-star reviews in the last week. (Prior to this, the book only had 7 Amazon reviews). The memoir is about his time as a coach, as well as his involvement in children’s charities.

Here is a list of what some of these Amazon users have written about the book in recent days…
