JOSHUA HOFFMAN
A psychological evaluation of an former Manzanita Elementary School fifth-grade teacher awaiting sentencing for molesting three of his former students says that he may be a dismal candidate for probation and has a long history of inappropriately touching and fondling young girls.
"Moreover, there is a disturbingly predatory pattern to his behavior, working himself into positions of trust as a youth pastor and elementary school teacher where he could prey on his preferred targets," psychologist David L. Wilson wrote in his evaluation.
Joshua Edward Hoffman, 26, of Redding pleaded guilty earlier this month to three of 12 felony counts of lewd and lascivious conduct with a child under the age of 14.
Under the plea deal, should a judge find him a suitable candidate, Hoffman would receive a 12-year suspended sentence and would be placed on probation for seven years.
He also would have to complete a sex offender treatment program.
But if the judge determines otherwise, he would be sentenced to eight years.
