    Skyview teacher, coach in Md. court

    A Skyview High School teacher and coach accused of child abuse and sex offenses posted $50,000 bail Thursday after he was formally charged following extradition from Vancouver. Frederick police charged Eric Meredith Estes, 41, with third-degree sex offense, attempted second-degree sex offense and child abuse where the accused is a household resident.


    Estes was a right-handed pitcher for the Frederick Keys minor league baseball team in 1997. He was 25 when he lived in the home of the alleged victim, a 13-year-old boy, from April through September of that year, according to court documents. During that time, Estes allegedly wrestled with the boy and touched his buttocks and genitals, as well as his own, and asked the boy to perform a sexual act. These events occurred in bedrooms in the home of the alleged victim and in Estes’ vehicle, according to court documents.


    The alleged victim came forward in 2007, but Estes denied the charges, documents state. Detective Brendan McCarthy of the Clark County Sheriff’s Office said Friday that the case was reopened after he learned about it last year and got approval from supervisors to look into it further. McCarthy said it appeared Estes was not interviewed in depth in 2007. Estes confessed to the crime during an interview with Clark County deputies in May, McCarthy said. He said there were no indications of other possible victims.
