A former coach from Wood County is now confronted with serious allegations involving the exploitation of children.
Seth Milkey, once a coach and counselor at Assumption Catholic High School, has been formally charged by prosecutors.
The charges stem from a distressing incident where Milkey, reportedly in a state of distress, was discovered at his residence by authorities last month, allegedly threatening self-harm.
The catalyst for his distress was the discovery by his family of a collection of nude photographs featuring former students whom he had coached or counseled.
Investigators assert that these images depict the minors in various states of undress, suggesting they were taken surreptitiously.
Milkey parted ways with Assumption Catholic High School in 2021, yet the images in question were purportedly captured between 2019 and 2023 within the confines of his home’s bathroom.
