Staff member at 'troubled teen' treatment center in southern Utah charged with sexually abusing 2 underage female students
Paul Anthony Nichols, a 22-year-old St. George resident, was arrested last week following a sexual abuse investigation over a month long.
The first victim, a 15-year-old girl, said she and two other students were playing truth or dare one night when Nichols, who is 22 years old, joined them. One of the"dares" was for Nichols to kiss all three of them. The 15-year-old said she then went into the bathroom, and Nichols went in after her and began kissing her, which she said she initially"went along with." She said Nichols then groped her while they were"making out.
On a separate occasion, the girl said Nichols was in her dorm room with her and told her to take her clothes off and pose for photos, which he allegedly took with his cell phone camera. Police interviewed Nichols on Thursday, and charging documents state that he admitted to doing what the teens said he did. He was booked into the Washington County Jail that same day, and on Friday was ordered by a judge to be held without bail.
