WASHINGTON - A local swim coach who used to train swimmers bound for the Olympics is now facing 15 years in jail and will have to register as a sex offender after pleading guilty to sexually abusing a child he coached in the 1980s.
Richard J. Curl of Vienna pleaded guilty Thursday morning to one count of child sexual abuse in Montgomery County Circuit Court.
Curl will be sentenced May 23.
Police say 63-year-old Curl turned himself in on Thursday to face the charge, which came after police in August interviewed 43-year-old Kelley Davies Currin who said she had been abused by Curl when he coached her as a child.
