Authorities say they started an investigation last November after a a child claimed to receive texts from Jeffrey Sandusky, and that some of those texts asked for naked photographs. Those message were shared with the child's father, who notified police. Authorities also said a second child may be involved.
KDKA-TV in Pittsburgh reported that Sandusky lived with the alleged victim and her mother for about five years, and he was told to leave the house when the allegations surfaced.
