74 year old Phil McGee, former physical education teacher at B.F. Day and Rainier View elementary schools in Seattle, Washington has pleaded guilty to 5 counts of child molestation.

McGee is accused of sexually abusing 4 young girls, all sisters, between 2002 and 2006. The youngest sister in 2002 was 7 years old, and the oldest 15. McGee was reportedly reprimanded for his seemingly 'too close' relationship with the girls, and then got the girls mother, a non-english speaking Cambodian woman, to sign power of attorney papers that she did not understand.

This is not the first time McGee has been accused of sexual abuse against a child. McGee was arrested for molesting his own 6 year old grand-daughter in 2005, however he plead guilty in order to get the charges reduced to 4th degree assault, and received 2 days in jail and probation.

Prosecutors are reportedly pushing for more than the maximum sentence of 17 years, for 20, due to special circumstances in this particular case.

Update -- 06/21/2008
Phil McGee was sentenced to 16 and a half years in prison.
