    Jerry Sandusky's lawyer on Monday asked the judge in his child sex-abuse case to delay the start of his criminal trial until mid-July, saying he needed more time to prepare.

    Defense lawyer Joe Amendola said the additional two months would help him contact and interview witnesses, subpoena records and hire experts. Earlier this month, Judge John Cleland tentatively scheduled jury selection in the former Penn State assistant football coach's trial to begin May 14, with jurors chosen from State College and the surrounding area.

    Sandusky, 68, faces 52 criminal charges he sexually abused 10 boys over a 15-year period, allegations he denies.
