In the series of interviews that took place over two days, Sandusky, 67, attempts to explain his behavior while insisting the accusations against him are false.
"They've taken everything that I ever did for any young person and twisted it to say that my motives were sexual or whatever," Sandusky told the Times' Jo Becker. "I had kid after kid after kid who might say I was a father figure. And they just twisted that all."
Sandusky and his lawyer, Joseph Amendola, reiterated throughout the story and an accompanying video that the bulk of the public's view is built on misconceptions.
"All those good things that you were doing have been turned around," Amendola is quoted as saying to Sandusky in the story, "and the people who are painting you as a monster are saying, 'Well, they're the types of things that people who are pedophiles exhibit.'"
