Charge: Lexington child care center director sexually assaulted 4-year-old in his office

A director at a Lexington child care and education center has been charged with raping a 4-year-old girl in his office, according to a police citation.

Adam Wieser, 27, was charged Friday with first-degree rape and first-degree sexual abuse of a child under 12 in a May 1 incident at the victim’s school. He was in the Fayette County Detention Center Monday, according to jail records.

Sharon Price, director of the Community Action Council which oversees the child care center, said the organization considers the safety and security of Head Start students its top priority. The Community Action Council received a report about the site director at One Parent Scholar House and immediately removed him from the position, Price said.

The Community Action Council made a formal report to the appropriate regulatory agencies, she said. . . . .

On Friday, the council learned that criminal charges were brought against Wieser as a result of the ensuing investigation.

The police citation said Wieser engaged in sexual intercourse with a 4-year-old girl and also had sexual contact with her. He touched her inappropriately, the citation said.

According to the Fayette County Detention Center website, Mr Wieser remains incarcerated, with bail set at $150,000.

Mr Wieser is charged with:

  • KRS §510.040 Rape, First Degree. Rape in the first degree is a Class B Felony, unless the victim is under 12 years old or receives a serious physical injury, in which case it becomes a Class A Felony. Under KRS §532.060, the sentence for a Class A Felony is not less than twenty (20) years nor more than fifty (50) years, or life imprisonment.
  • KRS §510.110 Sexual Abuse, First Degree. Sexual abuse in the first degree is a Class D Felony, unless the victim is under 12 years old, in which case it becomes a Class C Felony. Under KRS §532.060, the sentence for a Class C Felony is not less than five (5) years nor more than ten (10) years imprisonment.

According to the Detention Center’s records, Mr Weiser, who will ‘celebrate’ his 28th birthday this coming Friday, is 6’3″ tall and weighs 215 lb. To a 4-year-old girl, he must have seemed a veritable giant! If he is actually guilty, he could get out of jail when he is still just 48 years old, and even that assumes that he would not have early release credits.

If this gentleman is guilty, he should be sentenced to the maximum of 50 years on the first degree rape charge, and 10 years on the first degree sexual abuse charge, with the sentences to run consecutively. Everything that can be done under the law to keep this man person locked up for the rest of his miserable life needs to be done.

And the last thing that should happen is for the Commonwealth’s Attorney to offer him a lenient plea deal.

One thought on “Lock him up, and throw away the key

  1. Can someone justify sentences that run concurrently? The crimes are distinct, they are not indistinguishable. This “gentleman” needs to serve 50-60 years in prison, where hopefully, he will be abused in the same way he abused 4 year olds.

    I rather expect that the inmates, who have a far better moral compass than lawyers, judges, and academia, will probably deal with him as they do other child molesters.

    Any civilized societies would offer this “thing” to appease the local volcano god. But a nation that worships climate change, drag queens, Antifa and BLM, will no doubt release him after four weeks.
