Jerry Sandusky’s Fate Now With Jury After Mother Teresa Appears In Defense Closing Arguments
Just minutes ago, an extraordinarily bizarre match-up occurred in the Sandusky trial when Mother Teresa’s words appeared in the defense closing argument. TruTV’s In Session reported that defense attorney Joe Amendola read Mother Teresa’s prayer, Do It Anyway, to the jury, “because Jerry asked me to.” TrueTV has been reporting in real time at the Jerry Sandusky child sexual abuse trial in Bellafonte, Pennsylvania since the trial’s beginning on June 11.
Legal reporters praised Amendola for his overall closing argument. Nonetheless, the move by Sandusky’s defense attorney surprised In Session legal reporters on the scene, particularly since the poem was not in evidence. In any event, below is the Mother Teresa prayer, which reportedly was written on the wall of Mother Teresa’s home for children in Calcutta, India.
Do It Anyway People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered.
Forgive them anyway.If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives.
Be kind anyway.If you are successful,
you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies.
Succeed anyway.If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you.
Be honest and sincere anyway.What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight.
Create anyway.If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous.
Be happy anyway.The good you do today, will often be forgotten.
Do good anyway.Give the best you have, and it will never be enough.
Give your best anyway.In the final analysis, it is between you and God.
It was never between you and them anyway.
The jury is expected to begin deliberations of the (now) 48 counts by mid-afternoon. now .
