Former Clinton band teacher found guilty of sex charge

April 16, 2009 By admin

An eastern Iowa teacher will go to prison after his arrest in November for trying to arrange a rendezvous with a presumed teenage girl.

Sentencing is set for August 20th for a former Clinton High School Band teacher found guilty of trying to entice a teen into sex.

Thirty-four-year-old James Young was found guilty by a jury late Wednesday in U.S. District Court. That jury deliberated about two hours after hearing a couple of days of testimony in the case. Young faces at least ten years in prison on the conviction.

He was accused of trying to entice the 14-year-old girl into sex during sessions in internet chat rooms, but the contact was actually a DeWitt Police officer acting undercover on-line. Young’s defense argued it was entrapment and that he abandoned plans to meet the girl at a DeWitt motel.
