Man accused of sex with minor pleads guilty
Criminal Law
A man accused of having a sexual affair with an underage student while working as a Sherburne-Earlville High School janitor pleaded guilty in County Court.
Shawn M. Clark, 28, County Rd. 24, Sherburne, pleaded guilty to 3rd degree rape, also known as statutory rape. Originally he was charged with third degree rape, third degree criminal sexual acts and endangering the welfare of a child. Clark never had any prior legal trouble with law enforcement and had maintained a relationship with the 16-year-old, who is now 17.
The couple allegedly had consensual sex and had family approval said Clark’s Public Defender Alan Gordon.
The allegations apparently came to light after the relationship ended on bad terms and the girl came forward said investigators.
