The jury deciding the fate of former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky will be sequestered during deliberations, the judge presiding over his trial said Monday.

Saying that both sides needed to address some “technical issues” regarding some of the witnesses, Senior Judge John M. Cleland dismissed the jury just before 2 p.m. Monday. He told them to expect two more full days of court before closing arguments, which he forecast could be made as early as Thursday morning.
