Ex-West Virginia player Justin Crawford faces child sex charges in Georgia
Police said a former West Virginia Mountaineers football player has been charged with aggravated child molestation.
Authorities said Justin Crawford was arrested after a 12-year-old girl told her mother Crawford had sex with her Saturday in his Columbus home. He was also charged with sodomy and enticing a child for indecent purposes.
The Columbus Ledger-Enquirer reported that Detective Mark Scruggs testified during a preliminary hearing Crawford's wife saw her husband standing over the girl Saturday morning, then told the girl's mother.
Crawford first denied having sex, then later said it was the girl's idea.
