Queens soccer coach gets 66 years for abusing boys

"The coach of a Forest Hills soccer league was sentenced to up to 66 years in prison for sexually abusing six young boys during team trips that involved overnight stays at two Queens hotels, District Attorney Richard Brown announced last Thursday."

Interesting point made by defense attorney Martin Gedulig: "Some priests have been arrested and charged with certain similar crimes they carried out over several years, and their sentence was not over 20 years."
