Former Penn State vice president Gary Schultz has been released from prison.

Schultz was sentenced to six to 23 months in jail after pleading guilty in March to misdemeanor charges related to the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse scandal. He was allowed to spend part of the sentence on house arrest and granted work release to work part time as a business consultant for a landscaping service, the Centre Daily Times reported.



The Centre Daily Times quoted a prison spokesman as saying Schultz was no longer in jail, but he couldn't say when his confinement ended. Schultz reported to Centre County Correctional Facility on July 15.

The Penn State Board of Trustees will be voting today to rename the child care center at the University Park campus to strip it of Schultz's name.
