Former youth soccer coach charged with criminal sexual conduct

A Texas man who worked as a Michigan youth soccer coach has been charged with a total of 18 counts involving criminal sexual conduct, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel announced Wednesday.

Andrew Olnhausen, 34, has been charged as follows:

• Four counts of Criminal Sexual Conduct (CSC) 1, life offenses with lifetime electronic monitoring.

• One count of Child Sexually Abusive Activity, a 20-year felony.

• Two counts of Using a Computer to Commit a Crime, one being a 20-year felony and the other a seven-year felony.

• Three counts of CSC 2, 15-year felonies.

• One count of Children – Accosting for Immoral Purpose, a four-year felony.

• Five counts of Child Sexually Abusive Material – Possession, four-year felonies.

• One count of Distributing Sexual Material to a Minor, a two-year felony.

• One count of Contributing to the Delinquency of a Minor, a 90-day misdemeanor.

Olnhausen was a youth soccer coach with Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA).  He is accused of having an inappropriate sexual relationship with a soccer player that started
when the victim was eleven years old and continued until the victim was approximately sixteen years old.

The charges against Olnhausen are the result of an investigation by the Adrian Police Department. The investigation included searches of his cellphone and social media accounts, where authorities discovered dozens of naked images of the victim as well as other evidence that Olnhausen was having an inappropriate sexual relationship with the victim.

“I am committed to ensuring victims of sexual abuse and assault receive justice,” said Nessel.

Olnhausen is now the vice president of Sales and Marketing at Cornerstone Healthcare Group in Dallas, Texas. U.S. Marshalls arrested him in Texas where he awaits extradition back to Michigan.
