Police have scheduled a ten a.m. news conference to give more details about the arrest of Hilton school principal Kirk Ashton on charges he sexually abused nine young students.
State police arrested him on multiple counts of endangering a child, first-degree sex abuse, and second-degree sexual abuse against a child.
The allegations involve nine boys and span several years.
Ashton pleaded not guilty last night in Greece Town Court, and is being held on $500,000 bail.
He is the principal at Northwood Elementary School, but was suspended last week.
Bob Lonsberry heard from employees last week that an employee caught Aston committing a crime and interceded.
