Sabine Parish softball coach

James Muir, a 58-year-old softball coach from Allegheny County, faces multiple charges including statutory sexual assault and possession of child pornography after a 17-year-old girl reported that the abuse began in 2022. Muir allegedly provided the victim with vapes and alcohol in exchange for sexual acts, and police discovered explicit images and videos of the girl on his devices. He had worked as an assistant coach at Fox Chapel Area High School and Penn State New Kensington but resigned in 2023 amid the investigation. Separately, a 34-year-old Central Florida teacher, David Patrick Coffey, was arrested for sexual battery involving a minor, utilizing social media to facilitate the abuse. Additionally, former pastor Irwin Wilson, a 53-year-old candidate for Columbia mayor, faces charges of criminal sexual conduct with a minor, with the sheriff's office indicating that more victims may be identified. These incidents highlight ongoing concerns regarding the safety of minors in educational and mentoring environments.
