Former MLB Player Charged with Molesting Teen
Former New York Yankee Chad Curtis has been charged with a sixth count of second-degree sexual assault of a teen, after a third victim came out against Curtis.
Curtis, 43, had been previously charged with one count of third-degree criminal sexual conduct, two counts of second-degree criminal sexual conduct, and two counts of fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct.
Two teens, aged 13-15, had testified that Curtis touched them inappropriately in a room used by the Lakewood High School sports programs that Curtis had been a volunteer for.
The newest victim to come forward also said that she was touched on the schools grounds, like the other victims.
Curtis was supposed to be the Lakewood High School's head football coach, but resigned after the claims came out to light.
Curtis played in the Majors from 1992-2001 for the New York Yankees, Detroit Tigers, Texas Rangers, Los Angeles Dodgers, California Angels, and Cleveland Indians. He is best known for being a member of the Yankees World Series winning teams in 1998 and 1999 and for his walk-off home run in Game 3 of the 1999 World Series against the Atanta Braves.
