Sandusky Collects Pension, SEPTA Attacker Named, Sunoco Refinery and Marcellus Shale

Jerry Sandusky may be able to retain his $59,000 per year state pension for the rest of his life. Sandusky is still collecting monthly pension checks totaling $4,908.17. The state law, which governs when pensions must be forfeited by a convict, does not include any specific references to sex crimes. Instead it pertains mostly to "crimes related to public office": crimes like theft, bribery, forgery and perjury. That means Tim Curley and Gary Schultz, the Penn State administrators charged with lying about the Sandusky matter could lose any pensions they are entitled to, even though Sandusky could keep his.

Scores of police officers swarmed a SEPTA bus this morning in Center City Philadelphia in response to the desperate pleas of a driver being choked by a passenger who was armed with a knife at about 10 a.m. at the intersection of 4th and Market Streets. Two passengers came to the aid of the driver by wrestling the man to the ground. The assailant has been identified as Robert Moore, a 32-year-old from North Granite Street in Melrose, Pa. Moore has been charged with Aggravated Assault, Causing/Risking a Catastrophe, Simple Assault, Resisting Arrest and related offenses.

Delaware County has released the results of a $100,000 study looking into the future of the closed Sunoco oil refinery in Marcus Hook. Seven alternate uses have been proposed, all but one dealing with the processing and transportation of natural gas and its byproducts from the Marcellus shale. Capital costs range from $50 million to $6 billion, depending on the option, with potential employment listed at between 45 and 400.
