A Buhler High School teacher today pleaded not guilty to indecent liberties with an exchange student.

During a brief hearing in Reno County Court, Richard Young entered his plea and asked for a jury trial.

The debate coach is accused of sexually assaulting a 15-year-old foreign exchange student who stayed with him last fall.

Judge Richard Rome did not set a trial date for Young.

This foreign teenager deserves the same protections and justice as our American children. Only ignorant people would believe this young person is lying and mentally ill. The victim does not deserve the horrible treatment he is being subjected to and he is a brave strong person to confront this evil predator to stop him from victimizing other children.

Of course he did, because not only is he a pervert he is a coward and is trying to get out of his punishment.
