Over the years, during the increasing wave of "de-institutionalization" in favor of community-based care, the hospital population steadily decreased. But it has been the locus of psychiatric evaluation for several high-profile inmates imprisoned elsewhere, including Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky, who was convicted of rape and child sexual abuse in 2012.
