ST. LOUIS COUNTY, Mo. — Charges were issued Friday against a youth athletic coach, who has been instructing for over 10 years in Fenton, Missouri, for his alleged involvement in child sex crimes, the St. Louis County Police Department said.
Sgt. Tracy Panus with the department said in an emailed news release the St. Louis Prosecuting Attorney's Office issued charges Friday against Trevor White, 41, from Fenton, for attempted enticement of a child and sexual misconduct involving a child. White has been a youth athletic coach for over ten years. Investigators said they believed there may be more victims.
According to the probable cause statement, on Sept. 28., White texted a person he thought was a minor under the age of 15 years old.
