WATSONTOWN - The assistant athletic director for the Warrior Run School District has been arrested on charges of having inappropriate contact with two juvenile females.
Matthew M. Godfrey, 27, of Watsontown, was arraigned Thursday before Magisterial District Judge Robert Bolton, of Milton, on two third-degree felony counts of unlawful contact with a minor, felony charges of obscene and other sexual materials and performances and corruption of minors, and a misdemeanor charge of corruption of minors and indecent assault.
Godfrey, who was employed as the district's assistant athletic director and as an athletic trainer at the high school at the time of the alleged contact, was placed in Northumberland County Prison on $75,000 bail.
According to state police at Milton, the crimes involved two female victims who are now 18 and 17 respectively but were juveniles at the time of the offenses.
A press release from police did not give specific details, but police contend the offenses occurred at Godfrey's residence and at the high school between August 2010 and November.
Godfrey is scheduled for a preliminary hearing before Bolton at 1:45 p.m. Wednesday.
