BREAKING --- Barrus enters not guilty plea, waives hearing
|
|
10:49 AM, Tuesday, March 30 by Robert Fisher, News Director
BELMOND --- The Belmond-Klemme softball and volleyball coach accused of sexual exploitation by a school employee has waived her preliminary hearing and entered a written plea of not guilty in Wright County District Court. 33-year-old Jodi Barrus was scheduled to make her initial court appearance on Wednesday after turning herself in to authorities last week. According to online court records, Barrus’ attorney entered her written plea and the waiver of the preliminary hearing yesterday. The charge comes after the Belmond-Klemme School District had requested that the Wright County Sheriff’s Department conduct an investigation into possible wrong-doing. Wright County Sheriff Paul Schultz has stated that the alleged victim is an 18-year-old male student at the school who had a sexual relationship with Barrus between December and this month. Barrus is still free on $10-thousand bond. Sexual Exploitation by a School Employee is a Class D felony, punishable by no more than five years in prison.
