Former BD Soccer Coach Sentenced For Child Enticement
The former Beaver Dam High School soccer coach who tried to entice someone he thought was a teenage girl was recently sentenced in Winnebago County Court. Thirty-year-old Colin Stringer of Bettendorf, Iowa was sentenced to two years in prison and five years of extended supervision. He coached the Beaver Dam girls’ Junior Varsity team in 2015. Prosecutors say an Oshkosh officer was monitoring posts on social media and responded to a post from Stringer by sending a picture of a 14-year-old girl then engaged Stringer in explicit conversation. Stringer was arrested last June after showing up at an arranged meeting place.
