Ex-Penn State athletic director Tim Curley out of prison.

Former Penn State athletic director Tim Curley has been released from jail and is now serving the house-arrest portion of his sentence in the Jerry Sandusky child-sex scandal.

Pennlive.com reports the 63-year-old defendant was released Oct. 3 from the Centre County jail.

He was sentenced to seven to 23 months in jail after pleading guilty to child endangerment for not properly investigating a complaint by another Penn State assistant coach that Sandusky abused a boy in a locker room shower.

Curley must now serve four months' house arrest followed by two years' probation.

Curley was released less than a month after former university vice president Gary Schultz finished his six- to 23-month jail term for the same crime. Schultz is also serving four months' on house arrest followed by two years' probation.
