Update: OSU Drum Major Coach Facing Sexual Assault Charges

Columbus Division of Police

A judge today set the coach's bond at 50 thousand dollars. The text of the original story is below:

An Ohio State University drum major coach is facing sexual assault charges.  Columbus police say 28-year-old Stewart Kitchen forced himself on a female student who was having drinks with him at his Indianola Avenue home earlier this month.  Kitchen has been placed on administrative leave and is due to appear in court today. The allegations come as the school deals with the fallout of its investigation that determined former marching band director Jon Waters failed to stop a sexualized culture within the band.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
