Former Deerfield HS Wrestling coach who is accused of having obsessed child abuse videos

Alexander Evan Cohen

A man from Crystal Lake, who was accused of possessing children who were previously worked as a volunteer assistant Wrestling Coach for the Deerfield High School, confirmed the Township High School District 113.

The superintendent of District 113, Chala Holland, wrote in a letter to the district community that Alexander Evan Cohen worked in 2018-19 and 2019-20 as a “active volunteer trainer” for the youngsters' wrestling team.

Holland wrote that the district had not been contacted by the authorities and that the charges “do not affect any other current or former employees or volunteers”.

The 34 -year -old Cohen was held on Friday in the Mchenry County prison in 10 cases of pictures with the sexual assault of children under the age of 13.

Cohen's lawyer said that there was no evidence that Cohen saw the videos. The defender unsuccessfully sought Cohen's release while waiting for the process so that he could be treated because of his “mental illness”.

Holland called the fees “a very concerned situation”. She wrote that school officers are “no allegations of criminal activities against the accused during the time when the accused reported as an assistant as an assistant Wrestling trainer.” But she asked everyone who had information to report to school security.
