A former Minnesota swim coach already charged with criminal sexual conduct now faces additional counts, multiple news outlets reported.
Sixty-one-year-old Alfred John O’Neill was charged with one count of third-degree criminal sexual conduct in September after authorities said he had a sexual relationship with an underage girl during the ’80s.
He is already banned for life from coaching by the U.S. Center for SafeSport.
The Dakota County Attorney’s Office announced Friday O’Neill, a former Burnsville coach faces three more counts of third-degree criminal sexual conduct.
These new allegations stem from alleged sexual contact in three incidents with a girl between the ages of 16 and 17 whom O’Neill coached from 1997 to 1999, according to the attorney’s office.
According to a criminal complaint, in September, investigators met with a suspected victim following a tip. During the interview, the victim confirmed to police that she had been abused multiple times by O’Neill, the complaint said.
The victim told authorities that O’Neill had “engaged her in a sexualized relationship” at the age of 16, according to the complaint.
O’Neill is scheduled to appear in court on the new charges Dec. 3. His next appearance for the original charge is Wednesday, KSTP reported.
