PULASKI, Va. — An Oakwood man who served as the aquatics director at a Virginia YMCA in the late 1970s admitted July 19 that evidence is sufficient to convict him of sexually assaulting three girls in the swim program at that time. Under a plea agreement, Larry Kenneth Crosswhite, 64, who has been in Oakwood since at least the 1990s, entered Alford pleas to eight counts of indecent liberties and one count of unlawful carnal knowledge. An Alford plea allows a defendant to maintain innocence while acknowledging there is sufficient evidence for a finding of guilt.
