John Watts
A man whose profession was to take care of children pleaded guilty Tuesday to repeated sexual misconduct with a minor.
John Watts, a youth minister, teacher, and high school coach in the small town of Hanover, Ind. accepted a plea agreement in court Tuesday morning.
Now 20 years old, Courtney McHeinity came forward to share her story. "It started when I was in 8th grade, summer," she said. "It's been a long drawn out process. It's been through high school."
McHeinity was a straight A student and athlete with perfect attendance; but she had a dark secret.
"I was obviously a victim of a pedophile," McHeinity said. "It's been really, really hard."
She says her high school pole vault coach, John Watts, had improper sexual contact with her from the time she was 14 until she turned 18.
