Lawyer unprepared for start of pretrial for PSU student

The pretrial conference for the 21-year-old Penn State student accused of indecently assaulting six female students in September was postponed yesterday until February 12.

Hung Truong, who was a junior majoring in computer science at Penn State at the time of his arrest, is charged with entering 12 unlocked women's dorm rooms in Snyder Hall on Sept. 10 and improperly touching some of the women.

District Attorney Ray Gricar said the conference was postponed because Truong's attorney, Joseph Amendola needed more time to prepare.

Truong faces charges of aggravated indecent assault, indecent assault, harassment, criminal trespass and burglary.

Truong was suspended from Penn State following his arrest and is currently living in Harrisburg. Because he is not an American citizen, Truong could face deportation.
