Sandusky is currently on house arrest after being charged with 52 counts of child sexual abuse. One of the conditions of Sandusky’s bail is that he is not allowed to have any contact with anyone under the age of 18.

Sandusky’s children said they are sad they have not been able to visit their parents since Sandusky was arraigned for the first time on Nov. 5, according to court documents. His children are requesting permission to visit Sandusky with their children and permission for Sandusky to communicate with his 11 minor grandchildren through mail, email and other electronic communication, according to court documents.

Amendola is asking for Sandusky to be allowed to leave his house with his defense team in order to assist in his case, with prior approval of the probation department, according to court documents.
