A 52-year-old former employee of Seaford High School, in Seaford, Delaware, has been charged with six separate counts of child sexual abuse after he, allegedly, had an ongoing relationship with a 17-year-old student at the school.

On Tuesday, Kathy Jennings, Delaware's attorney general, announced the charges against Jerry Sodano, of Bridgeville, who was an athletic trainer for the high school.

According to law enforcement officials, between August of 2016 and January of 2017, Sodano "repeatedly and illegally engaged in sexual activity with the 17-year-old victim."
