BELLEFONTE, P.A. (AP) - Prosecutors say as many as half a dozen of Jerry Sandusky's molestation victims will be heard Tuesday at his sentencing hearing.

The former Penn State assistant football coach will be sentenced on 45 counts of child sexual abuse.

Sandusky is also expected to speak and insist on his innocence.

He's expected to receive a lengthy sentence, which at age 68, means he'll likely remain in prison for the rest of his life.
