Eric Hawkins, left, and his attorney, Todd Kenyon, left the Sherburne County District Court on Wednesday after a hearing. Hawkins has been charged with two counts of sexual assault.

The banned youth soccer league coach is accused of molesting one of his players, a 14-year-old girl. He did not enter a plea.

Hawkins, who coached in the Elk River United youth league, told Judge Alan Pendelton that he now lives in South Carolina.

Thanks for the warning.

I assume SCYSA has been put on alert.

Wow !!!!! really scary stuff.

where in SC? how about the other/y/rec leagues that aren't a part of scysa?

Went to the SLED sexual registry - there is no Eric James Hawkins listed in this state. I am wrong or is he not required to register here even if the offense occured in another state?

he's not been convicted, so i think no but not sure.

Here's another one from right here in the Carolinas:

My bad. Good ole innocent until proven guilty - I did not take time to read the article before I wrote - I guess that's what one too many episodes of Dateline's - "To Catch a Predator" will do to you.
