A 25-year-old Lacey man who once served as an assistant high school football coach, church volunteer and YMCA youth program director pleaded not guilty last week to child-sex crimes.
Luis A. Rodriguez was charged in King County Superior Court with one count each of third-degree child molestation, second-degree child molestation and third-degree child rape.
Judge Mary Roberts on Thursday ordered Rodriguez jailed in lieu of $100,000 bail.
Prosecutors have charged Rodriguez with having sexual contact with two boys he met through Champions Centre church between 2007 and 2009. He is not charged with abusing anyone while at jobs with Cascade Christian High School or the YMCA.
