Albert Lea counselor/coach accused of having sex with student

ALBERT LEA, Minn. — An Albert Lea High School guidance counselor who also served as the head girls varsity basketball coach was charged in Freeborn County District Court on Friday with alleged criminal sexual conduct with a student.

Richard John Polley, 32, was charged with third-degree criminal sexual conduct, including penetration, of a student under 18. The charge involves a defendant in a prohibited occupational relationship with the victim.

The victim told police initially she went to Polley at school to talk if something was bothering her or to make changes in her schedule, and in late December he accepted her request to add him as a Snapchat friend. She stated Polley had said he didn’t think it was a great idea to have her on Snapchat but didn’t delete her, and the two began talking more on the app.
