Former school employee sentenced in criminal sexual conduct case

Former Fraser High School contract employee Robert William Lindsay, II was sentenced in connection with his Criminal Sexual Conduct no contest plea on all charges.

From January 2023 to October 2023, Lindsay, age 26, had a sexual relationship with a 15-year-old girl.  He was charged and pled no contest to five counts of First Degree Criminal Sexual Conduct, life felonies and two counts of Second Degree Criminal Sexual Conduct, 15-year felonies. A no contest plea is treated like a guilty plea at sentencing.

On Wednesday, Macomb County Circuit Court Judge Julie Gatti sentenced Lindsay to 96 months to 600 months (8 to 50 years) for the First Degree Criminal Sexual Conduct no contest pleas, and 96-180 months (8 to 15 years) for the Second Degree Criminal Sexual Conduct no contest pleas. Upon release, Lindsay must have lifetime electronic monitoring and not contact with the victim.

"We hope this outcome brings some measure of healing to the victim and underscores our commitment to safeguarding our children and holding perpetrators fully accountable," said Macomb County Prosecutor Peter J. Lucido.
