A former JV girls basketball and softball coach at Brockport High School was arrested on Tuesday, June 4, for allegedly engaging in sexual contact with a student-athlete between March and August of 2018. The student, who was 15 years old at the time, reported the incidents to Monroe County Sheriff’s deputies in March of this year. The investigation determined that none of the alleged interactions took place on school property.
Anne Collins, 28, of Greece was charged with five counts of criminal sexual act in the third degree which is a Class E-Felony. She was arraigned in Sweden Town Court and remanded to the Monroe County Jail, where she was released after posting $5,000 bail.
Collins no longer works for the Brockport Central School District but police say she has worked as a social worker. Authorities are not aware of any other victims at this time. Anyone with information related to Collins is asked to call 911.
BCSD released a statement after the charges were announced:
“Although the investigation determined that none of the criminal conduct took place on school property, we will not tolerate such conduct and have worked with the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office with their investigation to ensure the safety of our students both on and off campus.
