Former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky is still saying he's innocent and he just sent a note from prison.

He's focusing on an appeal of his conviction on child sex abuse charges.

He just told a Pennsylvania newspaper he is trying to learn from what he calls "the struggle and circumstances."

The Wilkes-Barre Citizens' Voice reported Sandusky sent a note from his prison cell declining an interview saying his attorneys have told him to stay quiet.
