Local football coach charged with felony grand larceny

Dale Sexton, a Holland Patent varsity softball coach and newly appointed head varsity football coach was arrested Wednesday on charges of felony third-degree grand larceny, the Oneida County Sheriff?s Office said.

Sexton, 43, is accused of taking money given to him to pay for his father-in-law?s medical bills and using it for his own purposes.

?His father in law was sick, had cancer, and he took money from him,? said Assistant District Attorney Bernard Hyman.

An investigation was stated after Sexton?s father-in-law contacted the District Attorney?s Office, and Sexton was arrested Wednesday.

In April, Sexton was appointed head varsity football coach, a title which comes with a $3,405 stipend.

?He is not presently working for the school as we speak, he was appointed for the fall,? Holland Patent Superintendent Kathy Davis said. ?Once we?ve discussed with the board of education, we?ll make the best decision for the students.?

Hyman would not disclose how much Sexton allegedly took, but in New York, a third-degree grand larceny charge indicates that the alleged amount stolen is more than $3,000.

Sexton was arraigned Thursday and sent to Oneida County jail on $25,000 bail. He will return to Trenton Town Court on July 2.
