OKLAHOMA CITY – A former Marlow teacher was behind bars after pleading guilty to a heinous crime.
William Joseph Daniel, 45, of Stephens County, pleaded guilty today to sexual battery of a student, announced Robert J. Troester, United States Attorney for the Western District of Oklahoma.
The crimes allegedly occurred between February 1, 2022, and May 12, 2022, while Daniel was employed by Marlow Public Schools. A federal grand jury returned a two-count indictment against him on June 8, 2022.
Daniel pleaded guilty to Count 1, which alleged he touched in a lewd and lascivious manner the body and private parts of a student who was at least 16 and less than 20 years old. Count 2, which alleged Daniel digitally penetrated the private parts of the student, will be dismissed at sentencing.
At sentencing, Daniel faces up to 10 years’ imprisonment and a fine of $10,000, followed by up to three years of supervised release. A sentencing date will be set by the court.
