Former SJSU Official Pleads Guilty to Sexual Misconduct with Female Athletes

Scott Shaw, the former director of sports medicine at San Jose State University, pleaded guilty to two misdemeanor counts after being accused of inappropriately touching female athletes without their consent during supposed medical treatment. Shaw, who had previously faced six counts in a federal case that ended in a mistrial, could face up to two years in prison, supervised release, restitution to the victims, and a fine. The guilty plea came after years of denial, and the university has faced criticism for its handling of the allegations.
