Volunteer Floor Hockey Coach Accused of Sex Assaults

You never want to judge a book by it's cover, but what's your reaction when you see this guy's mug shot? We immediately thought he looked like Otto, the autopilot from the movie Airplane! Or maybe Flounder from Animal House? Either way, he's creepy us out.

Everyone in Bloomington, Minnesota however, must have thought he was a nice guy, because they let him coach 8 and 10-year-old girls floor hockey and softball teams. One lady even let him babysit her girls . . . for years! Everything seemed fine until Randy Lee Ronning was spotted touching one of the girls in an inappropriate manner while the family stayed at a Days Inn. The cops were called and the children were taken to a local hospital where they were examined. It was there that one of the kids told police that Ronning had assaulted her several times over the PAST SEVEN YEARS when he took care of them while their mother was away. Cops did some digging on Ronning and also found out that he was a volunteer coach. And here's where the lawsuits will start: apparently the Bloomington Athletic Association does not do background checks on coaches, mostly because the majority of its volunteers are parents . . . except for Ronning who had previously been convicted of fifth-degree criminal sexual conduct back in 1992.
