Pennsylvania life coach convicted of assaulting child

Lori BurkholderLANCASTER COUNTY, Pa. —

The Pennsylvania District Attorney said Kyle Slaymaker, a 39-year-old Lancaster County man, used his career as an online life coach to lure child victims and assault them.

Slaymaker was convicted of felony indecent assault of a pre-teen child and other offenses.

At least two witnesses testified that they met Slaymaker online, where he offered business advice.

Witnesses said that over many years, Slaymaker spanked a child on numerous occasions, which they described as being motivated by “sexual desire.”

Slaymaker is scheduled to be sentenced in November.
