The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office opened an investigation in January 2020 after the teen’s mother reported text messages on her son’s cellphone.
“Deputies spoke with a male juvenile who advised that his soccer club coach, Scotty West, had sexually assaulted him,” court records stated.
The incident was said to have happened in the fall of 2019 during a sleepover at West’s condominium in Washington Twp.
West was indicted in February 2020.
He was booked late Wednesday afternoon into the Montgomery County Jail, awaiting transport to state prison.
West also was designated a Tier III sexual offender, which means that after his release from prison he must register with his local sheriff’s office every 90 days for life.
