Girl’s Relationship With Coach Is Focus of Suit
From Times Staff Reports
A teenager who had sex with her basketball coach has sued him, her former private high school and its owner.
The girl, who is now 16, and her parents filed the lawsuit Tuesday in Los Angeles County Superior Court. It accuses coach Paul Calvin Clark III of manipulating the girl into an illegal sexual relationship, which she says began last year in his office at Ribet Academy, a private school in the Glassell Park area of Los Angeles. Clark was convicted in June of four counts of sex with a minor.
