Former Penn State president Graham Spanier has reported to jail early to begin serving his sentence for child endangerment in a case stemming from the Jerry Sandusky child sexual abuse scandal.

Circuit Court of Appeals focused on whether Graham Spanier was wrongly convicted under a 2007 law for acts that occurred in 2001. Spanier, 71, was forced out as university president shortly after Sandusky was arrested in 2011 on child molestation charges. Glancing in a mirror he saw a naked boy, 10 or 12 years old, and also a naked man Sandusky. He is on administrative leave from Penn State and has not taught any classes since the scandal broke nine years ago. Sandusky is serving a lengthy state prison sentence and maintains he was wrongly convicted of the sexual abuse of 10 boys.
